Had no business having a birthday party IMO. In the Bay area of California.

(13,626 posts)warehouse space in the pipeline that needs to be filled. About the time they catch up, quite a few people will need more. Maybe after this they keep one of the Kirkland 30 packs in reserve and buy as they use. That wouldn't be bad idea.

(14,496 posts)I did jobs in many paper mills in many states and a few in Canada. I don't recall a factory outlet store in any of them, LOL. They should give you locals first call and a darn good discount! However, most of the mills I recall didn't produce finished goods. They put paper on enormous rolls and shipped it to finishing companies. I enjoyed seeing the end-to-end processes.
One of the joys of visiting mills in Wisconsin was the little cheese factory outlet stores common in almost every town. I returned home many times with suitcases stuffed with the good stuff if I could afford it.
You're right, it's not a bad idea to keep a few important non-perishable items stashed away for emergencies and I've failed to think that through as I should.
