In our “New Normal” of staying home to protect ourselves and others, there are still times we need to venture out and restock our cupboards.
Below is a shortlist of stores with shopping hours for seniors, updated store hours, and curbside pickup for your Best Furry Buddy.
Remember, before leaving home, wash your hands thoroughly, 20 seconds minimum, in between your fingers, and don’t forget your thumbs. I sing the Happy Birthday song as I count to 20, and sanitize the cart handle with the wipes provided at most store’s doors. While you are shopping, keep a safe distance of six feet between you and other people, and carry sanitizer to clean your hands after you check out.
Also, many stores are only accepting credit/debit cards, so if you can use a credit card instead of cash, please do so. Money has the potential to hold on to more bacteria after being passed from one person to the next. Happy safe shopping!
