Hurricane Milton: eggs and milk are out @ WalMart delivery since Helene. There was a brief time that had eggs and milk but ran out quickly as Milton approaching. They’re till out, as of today, Oct 15. I had an order coming on Saturday, Oct 12, from Weee (they’ve eggs and milk) but had to cancel on Friday – still no power. Once the power is restored on Saturday morning, I placed the order on Sunday with WalMart, the first available deliver date is Thursday, Oct 17th – normally it’s within a few hours, which is why I’ve been using it.
At pool today, Matt said he was fine during the hurricane and he didn’t even loss power – I don’t know where he lives, assume not too far. He corrected me that the heater stops working once the temp hit 65 degrees. I previously thought was 55°.
