They have all the Diet drinks available here in 16 oz bottles which is what I drink and Mio orange tangerine water drops seem to be back in good supply.
What I can’t find anywhere is the Dixie brand regular size paper bowls. It’s either HEB brand or Great Value and I don’t like the GV ones. The H‑E‑B ones are a good substitute but I guess Dixie is gone.

I've noticed that Cascade dishwashing powder isn't available. The pods are and we can use them when we run out of powder. We have been ordering the Cascade powder online. Dh has said all he can find in the stores are the pods and the liquid.

luanne, That's an idea. We could order it through Amazon Prime for free shipping.

Small size paper plates. I resorted to buying the Chinet plates which I really do not like. Speaking of cats - I feed my cats their wet food off of the small plates so I do not have to wash two dishes every day. I am also am struggling to find canned pure pumpkin. For a while I could not find Canadian bacon. That has started to reappear. I like canned no salt added red beets. I can only find the ones that have salt in them or the small cans of the no salt added ones.
The grocery store I go to has tons of toilet paper, multiple brands. I guess everyone is stocked up in my area.

Plain diced canned tomatoes and tomato or vegetable juice. We live in central California where there are lots of tomato processing plants and all the cans on the shelves have diced chilis. I talked to my husband’s cousin who lives near Bismarck ND and today they processed cases of V8 juice and canned 198 quarts of salsa.

Canned diced tomatoes - but I was noticing a shortage on them pre-COVID. The single serve containers of shelf-stable Minute Rice (brown and quinoa) for my Purple program. Brummel & Brown yogurt spread. PB2 unless it's the giant tubs at BJs. Gluten free pastas and legume based pastas are only just making a comeback where I live. Paper towels for some reason? Vegetarian baked beans. Frozen fruit and vegetables!!! WTF people with chest freezers in your basements, give the rest of us a break. ETA - I can't find the packs of Canada Dry ginger ale mini cans (7.5 oz.) Those are how I ration my soda intake because diet soda makes me feel sick. You cannot find one where I live. The manager at Walmart even told me they might not be back on the shelves until next year. From what I understand there is a shortage of CANS!!

Forgot to post. I've previously posted that the store was out of the specific two flavors of cat food my cats has been eating, but today it looked like they were low or out of a number of Fancy Feast Medleys flavors. Wonder if there is a shortage of Fancy Feast Medleys cat food.

bbbearsmom, my cat's fav is missing too. It is the Beyond, Wild Salmon recipe. Speaking of fish, but for humans, my kipper snacks have been hit or miss lately. I started ordering from Amazon.

Weird item: I was just at the store and needed a packet of Lowery’s enchilada seasoning, there was absolutely no Lowery’s in the store! McCormics yes but no Lowerys. I don’t normally use them so this surprised me

Another item I can’t find, box spring for my daughter. She moved out of the dorms so now I have to furnish her room. Found everything else but the box spring.

linda72, That paper towel looks interesting. We do the Bounty select a size but that might also work. But -- how is it when you use a small square and the next time you need a full half. Do you take a 3/4 piece or what? About the cans. Yes there is a can shortage so manufacturers are sticking to their best selling products. However, I read that there was also a shortage of some artificial sweeteners which are affecting the diet drinks. I decided to use this excuse to once again just stop drinking soft drinks even if sugar free.

Kitty, when I pulled off 1 sheet (from the Brawny pick-a-size roll) I tore it into 2 pieces. (it's perforated) I would use half of that and save the other half for future use. I often found that the smaller size was all I needed for many things.

AGAIN WITH THE TOILET PAPER?!? So all the Sam's and Costco once again have bare shelves here. What are you noticing is out of stock in your area?
