Soviets Can Handle Snow
Soviet Safeway by maxedaperture
I have been hearing from friends that grocery stores in the area are fresh out of the basics: milk, bread, and toilet paper. Oh, and by “hearing”, I mean via photos on Flickr and Facebook updates – sorry, I forgot that nobody actually speaks to each other anymore. So I decided to go to my local grocery store to see how they’ve weathered the storm. My conclusion: the Soviet Safeway at 17th & Corcoran is stocked full of everything you need to survive.
How is your local grocery store doing? Tell us in the comments.
