I did a double take today ... WalMart

I was getting cat food and couldn't believe I saw full shelves of cleaning product, Lysol spray & wipes!!! Seems like things are getting somewhat back to normal🙂

Who would have thought we would get excited about cleaning

and disinfectant products! I was pleased to see your photo..

I even showed it to my husband! Yippee!

Now, I hope I don't start hoarding when I find them here.

This was midday at the "neighborhood WM" store but the supercenter stores have had "empty" shelves. I don't go to big store often because I don't need anything other than food selections.

The funniest thing : I was so stunned by seeing it & there was another lady standing there. I put my cat food in her basket instead and walked away ...then had to go back after I realized it to find her to apologize🙄. Guess between seeing this & no more directional arrows (one way aisles) I'm dazed & confused...lol

Good luck I'm still looking for Windex refill!!

I found Isopropyl Alcohol at my WM today. It was 91% rather than the usual 70%, but I bought a bottle. It was the 1st I've seen since about March.

ETA: The had also removed the directional arrows on the floor at my WM, too! It felt so subversive to just walk down an aisle, any which direction!

WOW!! I have not seen a shelf that looked like that in months.

It must have been quite a rush for those that came upon it.

You hit the jackpot of the day!

It must depend on the state!

I was in a Walmart today and our shelves for paper towels and cleaning supplies were COMPLETELY EMPTY.

No need to even go down that aisle...

@homedecor1
I was at my Neighborhood Walmart Grocery yesterday and the cleaning products aisle was still empty. I know because every time I go, I make it a point to stroll down that aisle just to check it out. Maybe my store will stock up sometime soon. Thanks for the heads up.

@shoesnbags

I'm sure it depends on the area. I'm in FL and not a highly populated area yet my younger son happened to go to WM in NJ -- no essentials but he was excited to find bounty paper towels. He said he bought 4 12-packs since his wife uses at her tattoo shop. Yet, couldn't find soap🤷‍♀️. I'll probably end up sending it to him🙄

Wow! We have no Walmart in NYC (I think) so I don't regularly see such large lysol and clorox displays, but I haen't seen ANY of these products in any shelf since January. I can usually find Bounty and Charmin if I search hard enough (not eraly days pandemic, only off brands then), but Lysol? Clorox? I finally broke down last month and spent $60 on 3 cans of Lysol disinfectant spray from a price gouger. Looking forward to checking out my local stores. I have been buying offbrand cleaners and the odd bottle of Mr Clean and I am stocked, but it will be a sight for sore eyes to see Lysol and Clorox in the store shelves.

I found an offbrand of wipes at the grocery store on Tuesday and got 2 cans. I did not see a limit sign but I only bought 2. Was surprised to see wipes for the first time.

No lysol spray so far but everything else is fully stocked.

I hate our little Walmart store, they never have the food I want.

ME Too. Got there mid morning and I finally got my CLEAN SHOWER. Amazing product. Shower, before getting out I spray the glass doors and perfect without scrubbing, etc. And there was also Lysol but not the spray. I guess I should have been there earlier. But you are right. Supplies are getting better. Yippee.

It all depends on what state you live in, where you live, and if it’s your lucky day. Over here the shelves have been empty forever and still are. If you happen to go there on a delivery day and the shelves have just been stocked, then you’ll be able to get some. But you must hurry because they’ll be gone within 15 minutes or so, and who knows when you’ll get another chance. .
