For the record, HEB didn't drive anyone out...consumers did. There's a REASON HEB is so big in Waco.
Wooded Acres HEB was crowded, but orderly..no carts..only hand baskets handed out at entry.Smart move...No bread..bagged veggies were in short supply..Plenty of meat. chicken, etc in meat market..Bottled water was selling but still available in ample amount at !0:30..Don't know how that will play out by evening..I'd call and ask first if that was only item I went for..Just dayum glad they were open..and appreciative of their effort to serve their customers..Time to make a pot of 5 alarm Chili ! Good luck to everyone..take care of the elderly/ shut ins, and your pets! Sic 'Emhistorian said:
That's a great idea!
As for myself, the roads are too icy where I am so I am not going anywhere today. Thankfully I am well stocked and the things I need can wait.
HEB's Temple Warehouse will probably start delivering to stores again in some measure as soon as possible..Hopefully things will improve as power returns. Bell County has been particularly hard hit in this event.historian said:
I went to an HEB near me & they had lots of things but also plenty of empty shelves: produce, dairy, frozen foods, baking goods, etc. It reminded of last year when the hoarders went COVID mad.

Anyone know if Spec's in Temple is open?
Just FYI, just called Wooded Acres HEB and they are out of water..Still only allowing hand baskets for customers..no bread either..couldn't tell me when they'll be restocked...Hope this warm up gets their trucks rolling....open at 9 AM tomorrow...Just FYI if anyone's interested.historian said:

Ursa, can you use a cart ?ursamajor said:
HEB in woodway was pretty well stocked today on dry goods. No eggs, milk, frozen food, and little produce. Pretty good on meat, but not much cheese

Thanks! Guess it's best to call first and see if they've been restocked.1outawayBear said:Bexar Pitts said:Ursa, can you use a cart ?ursamajor said:

I went to it two days ago and they only had hand held baskets. Not sure about today
theyre getting multiple trucks tonight. They closed early so they can get the store restocked.Bexar Pitts said:Ursa, can you use a cart ?ursamajor said:

the whole store closed at 5 today. They were doing a full clean out and getting pretty much a full store stock tonight from what I gathered.1outawayBear said:trey3216 said:theyre getting multiple trucks tonight.

Thanks for the info on why closed early. I just called the pharmacy to get more asthma meds and they said the pharmacy was closed at 5. I asked why and she didn't know.
Thanks, trey! Really appreciate the information. Got some errands to run early, and then have to refill some fridge,shelf and cabinet spaces at home.trey3216 said:the whole store closed at 5 today.

cool. And H-E-B will be locked and loaded by opening tomorrow, and they're an in state business. They've actually had product except for today and yesterday, and a lot of the reason they didn't t have product is because it was given to the hospitals and nursing homes to make sure they had product since it had to be off the floor. But now down at the feet of Wally and others.historian said:
I went to my local HEB to get some things but the shelves were still empty for those items. Went to Walmart & got everything easily & at good prices. That's why people go there.
Tried going at 9AM..Wooded Acres store did indeed look like the early Covid days with the loooong line curled around the building. This one store serves such a large area of Waco that I decided to wait until tomorrow to go inside..I'm sure a lot of those folks had more urgent needs than me. It has probably settled down a lot by now..Just FYI.trey3216 said:cool. And H-E-B will be locked and loaded by opening tomorrow, and they're an in state business.

Yeah, for sure. Greed is why they take their kitchens into areas after disasters and feed thousands of people. Or greed is why their store that lost power last week told everyone in the store just to take the groceries in their carts home at no charge. There is not a better corporate citizen around than HEB.joseywales said:

It's 10:50, and I just came from there. That was my experience too. I'm guessing closing early yesterday, then waiting until 9 to open made a big difference. It was busier than usual, but except for bread the shelves were pretty well stocked. Lots of check out registers open with a couple of extra "15 items or less" registers. My guess is by Tuesday all should be back to normal.Bexar Pitts said:
Went to Wooded Acres at 8AM...fairly well stocked with exception of bread...I'm sure they got cleaned out yesterday, but will probably restock as soon as they are able. Not overly crowded, but busy..Very pleased to find most everything I went for..Love the store and their great employees.
I think so too. Carts were nice..I had lots of stuff to get. BTW, they did open at 8..Google showed 9, but I called late yesterday and a helpful young lady told me 8..73s de N4WJP said:It's 10:50, and I just came from there. That was my experience too.

They actually officially opened at 9 but we're letting people in around 8 to relieve the pressure of having too many lined up to get in all at once. Pretty commonplace for them actuallyBexar Pitts said:I think so too. Carts were nice..I had lots of stuff to get.
