In short supply these days are bottled water, bread, chicken and dog food, as well as car parts.
Stores across the U.S. are experiencing shortages of every variety, and customers are not happy.
From meat shortages at a Virginia store to empty freezers at a Dollar General store in Oklahoma, businesses are seeing virtually no shipments of items that customers rely on, all due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In short supply these days are bottled water, bread, chicken and dog food, as well as car parts.

“We used to promise we'll have your car by the end of the day. We can no longer do that,” he continued.
