With the COVID-19 pandemic everything was messed up.
Especially getting things in stores.
For instance when I went to Home Depot to try to buy some nails for a home improvement project I was doing they were completely out of them! I really could not believe it! But that wasn’t all. They were also out of rebar wire ties too. I feel bad for all the construction companies out there who needed rebar wire ties to complete their building projects. I know in the city they had been building new office spaces and those would require a whole lot of rebar wire ties in order to secure the concrete. I am thankful that my home improvement I have been doing did not need rebar wire ties. Because they were completely wiped out of them! This is rather shocking when I really think about it because rebar wire ties are pretty expensive. So only major construction companies would be buying them. And for home depot to be fresh out of rebar wire ties with no more coming back into stock, that is kind of scary! I had to go somewhere else to find the nails I needed for my own project and I was lucky enough to find them. But I wonder if these construction companies were lucky enough to find their rebar wire ties anywhere else? For their sake, I hope that they did. Because this could become a real issue and put them out of business if they can not get their rebar wire ties from anywhere!
