Would they laugh at themselves if they realized they have just reinstated the old Religious Blue Laws, now 24/7 and not just on Sunday?

Does this have anything to do with the Hobby Lobby complaints?

Apparently garden seeds are “non-essential” too:

Whenever possible, stores such as Walmart, Target and Costco must stop the sale of nonessential items within the store and require online or telephone ordering, delivery, and curbside pickup instead.

So I have to wander around the store, finding things I can't buy, type them into my phone as a walk and hit order on my way out to wait on the sidewalk for store employees to pick up the same items to hand to me.

Or does Vermont have someone there to gouge out my eyes if I look at the forbidden products?

Clothing is non-essential?


yes it is..,,if you supposed to shelter in place why do you need new clothes

what a about TV’s, video games, and 1000;s of other stuff

China allowed 1 person per household to go to the store every 3 days to get essentials

the problem here is that big box stores aren’t just grocery stores

I dunno, I’ve always kinda thought that underwear were essential. But now with warmer weather coming going commando wont be quite so bad. A friend of mine never wore underwear. He said it was from his days as a Tin Can sailor in the 60’s. His logic was, “Why dirty two sets of pants” Kinda hard to argue against that kind of logic if you think about it.

Howard county in Indiana did this and caught so much blowback that they just rescinded it, asking folks to do just one person/one cart

Get in, get out without dallying
