Agreed. Stores have to sell products. Preppers seem to be the ones buying any substantial products right now. Stores will sell products that cater to those who are buying right now.

Agreed. I've been to wholesale clubs all over Northern Virginia and had no idea they even offered these types of goods until I saw them online. I guess purchasing on the Internet is the only way to get them through these wholesalers.
