Any of you guys try to buy a freezer lately?  Nobody got nothing.  I finally got one at ABC Warehouse.   I had to go to the warehouse to get it.  Ours died and it is full of food.  they said  it was because of the covid and all those hoarders.  I sure will be glad when this crap is gone.

The only freezers you can gt over here are the little 1/4 size ones and smaller.  Good friends ordered new fridge and freezer first of May, told be in on June 10, now told likely be the end of November

My wife spent a few days on the phone looking within a couple hundred miles of here.
Finally found one at a Lowe’s up in Mo. I had to take off work right then and go get it. We had beef ordered and needed more freezer space. Then the beef fell through. Finally got half a beef last weekend that she ordered late March.

Wife bought a whole steer last week, I found a good used freezer to add to our capacity.
We dont know when it is coming, because the girl we bought it from cannot find a meat packer available

In my opinion,, if your not feeding 10 ppl, the grocery stores are still selling meat, and everything you need ! Me and my gal get by pretty cheap with chicken and pork,, this weekend was a feast as we done a chuck roast in roast beef, Instapot, and walllaaa , good eating/ but we only do beef every now and then

I bought one of them 7 cu ft uprights at Sam's back in May - then after see they are on back order , 
 last week my frig kicked out and figured I would need a replacement - forget it - anything out there is on back order - from end of month to Nov on most anything in other than apartment size  
 Then figured i would just fix mine - replaced circuit board $150 for the board from e-bay or $320 from parts place around here , so good now for a bit and has a large lower freezer so in good shape now . Son has 1/2 beef in my upright freezer here and rest in a freezer at his place

Yes I tried to buy a replacement fridge for the garage. A low cost white simple one. Nope could not find anything except two $650 dollar ones, which were not able to be delivered because they were so far behind with service and deliveries.
Found a used one at the neighbors, was a good deal, it cost me a quart of syrup. We dodged a bullet on that one!
Now I just need to get the old one loaded and hauled to the recycle day this Sat.
We were supposed to get some beef too. Humm Wonder what happened to that?
I also needed more freezer space and happened to mention it to my friend Matt. He said there is one setting there in his shop, free. I snagged it small but was just right for my space and it works! 
Should have bought some lotto tickets I guess!
Regards,
 Chris

The gentleman I work on the farm raises cattle and he is booking steers for next August at our little processor.  They are backed up that far.  I raise poultry for people and now have 3 freezers bought a beat up used one for $50 and it freezes better than my other ones.

Was just looking on Face Book - Market Place and were about 10 freezers up for sale on there , from chest , upright , to small units - all the prices seemed reasonable for used units .

no freezers around here either. ----just hope ours dont croak! ----- all we have here in ours  is veggies, sis did give us a couple packages of chicken, a friend fishes a lot and handed us a couple packages of nice catfish, and that's about for meat here ---- cant afford it.
