#LockdownDiaries: How I Did my Groceries at Home during Pandemic

These are difficult times .  All of us are trying hard to adjust to this new norm norm when everyone slows down and stays at home because we are on a lockdown.  The pros and the cons of living in the age of Corona Virus aka Covid-19 is rewiring all of us to take it slow, the cons is were so used at rushing everything like we’re on a race that this lifestyle is stressing us down.

One of the stresses a lot encounter right now is where to get and how to get their groceries.  Not all of us are well fueled to do grocery once a week , most Filipinos make do with a daily stop at the grocery.

Personally a grocery stop everyday is one of our routine.  It’s  therapeutic for me and my daughter to walk down the isle of the grocery store . It’s exercise and it’s fun to see new items and kinda monitor the prices.

Now that this routine has been taken away from us, it makes us all kinda restless.

Groceries near our area are still open during the window period of 7am to 7pm, the problem is the lines are a mile long because of the social distancing being implemented. Only 100 people at a time can enter and shop and there’s a one meter per person distance.  Give and take you will have to spend 4 hours grocery shopping for a day supply. Which is not practical and safe during these times coz you will have longer exposure to people and things that might be carriers of the virus.

So how do you go grocery shopping during these times?  Here’s a list of groceries, restaurants and food supply stores you can order online or make a call.
