The fall out from this is going to get a lot worse as people's habits change. A lot of businesses that weathered the initial storm won't survive the collateral damage.

About the only thing I changed spending wise is staying out of chain grocery stores, because the way people act, the hoarding, people that freak out when someone gets in their space, etc,etc. The mom & pop stores around me are business as usual, not that crowded and adding items as demand dictates.

Most are stocked up better than they were pre-pandemic.
I have to drive further and make more stops and of course prices are higher. I may keep that behavior for a long time.
