Rationing

Coles is slightly less stringent on what you are allowed to buy and now much. For Woolies, it's pretty much only ONE of everything, which is why all the checkouts are now open at Woolworths, instead of forcing everyone to go through the self checkout, so they can take away any multiples of anything you might have.

Here's the list from a local Coles that I was in today:


It's truly odd to be living in a time of Rationing. We are literally seeing History being made though, as well. 

It seems that those of us who are happy in our own skins, living alone and not going out huge amounts are doing better than the extroverts in the world, who like to flit from place to place. Thankfully lots of places are giving the world access for free to museums and palaces, to space stations, to opera halls. The list goes on. And it's cool. Seriously cool. While we are all self quarantining, and administering "social distancing", we are coming together with the help of the internet, and sharing our experiences and our lives with people all over the planet. Now, more than ever, we can travel the world from our own houses, for free. Something to be said for the scary times we are currently living in, I guess!
