My wife and I hammered out our plan last night. I'm gonna hijack my neighbors Winnebago (God bless him); Make an HEB run; Sheriff's Dept. and confiscate all ammo and guns. Academy for fishing gear; Hit up Specs; Head to gulf coast and Shanghai (racists?) a yacht. Raise the Texas Longhorns flag. We should be good, Amirite? Whats your plan?
I thought your first sentence said, "My wife and I got hammered last night..." and kept reading---was a little confused at first...
You conveniently forgot to mention the part where you hit the liquor store. You’re not turning Baptist on us are you?
You missed the stop at Herman's office to give him your advice about the team, but other than that, you pretty much covered all the important stops.
Well, since I work at a grocery store I'll just bring my personal armory and family to the store and shack up for a while. Enough food in here to last me for years if necessary.
I have mega guns and ammo. I would have to buy some groceries and head out to a rental cabin I have in NC. Nobody would find us. Ide live off the land once I ran out of Cheetos and beer! Would have to plant a garden. Anybody want to buy my SugarLand house? I’ll throw in a cat. I’m keeping my dog, wife and kids!
You miss the part about hitting up Specs? Wish I could find somewhere up here hta has their selection.
Yeah, when I lived in Richardson, Total Wine and More was the place with the best selection - there was the one just one exit up from where I worked off of 75. But as I never found a large Specs in the Dallas area, I never found a Total Wine & More in the Austin area. I wish there was anything that rivaled either up here. Edit: Wonder if Specs and TW&M have some type of territory agreement such as Kroger and HEB have - never found a HEB north of Waxahacia, only Central Markets, and don't recall seeing a Krogers in the Austin area.

HEB does not like to battle more than two competitors in a given market. In Austin, the real competitor is Walmart with Albertsons (including Randalls) and Whole Foods a little ways back. HEB actually owns several properties in the DFW area, but for now, they have chosen to stick to the Central Market brand for market competition purposes. (Actually over the last year or so the Central Markets in DFW have been slowly introducing HEB brands.) In the Austin area, HEB and Walmart drove Kroger out of the market. While Spec's first store was actually in Lake Dallas, all of its stores in DFW are relatively new (15 years or so). Goody Goody is the remaining large DFW locally owned store operator after Centinenal went under and Sigel's was bought out by Austin based Twin Liquors. Goody Goody's stores are large and well-stocked. However, their warehouse store at the intersection of 720 and 423 in Little Elm puts everyone to shame.
Sangre works for Spec’s! We have one down the street from me. Love it. Total Wine & More is real good too but if it helps Sangre I’m good with Spec’s.
You misspelled apocalypse in the thread title so I have to question your commitment to the topic to be honest
If I saw a bunch of these turn into zombies, I'd become pretty committed to the topic! Noticing LHC left the "L" out of the thread title.
There are two things I always do at HEB: 1. I laugh when they hand me my receipt and say, "You saved...$(x)". I respond, "Saved? As compared to what? To whom? Shopping at the convenience store? Y'all ran everyone out of Texas.". 2. When they point me to a self checkout line I always say, "Nope. Every one of those machines is someone's job. I"ll wait right here in line.". I never get a response as they stare at their feet and walk off. Line to get into HEB in Gonzalez was 40 people long today... all I wanted was some coffee. Oh well, best thing I have going for me during the apocalypse is I am holed within easy walking distance to the Shiner brewery. Dammit that's got to count for something in a world gone mad.
I'm not one of those I told you so guys, but don't come crying to me if you get killed in the Zombie Apocalypse.
