One of the things I buy is a case of washer fluid, which will usually last me about 6-8 months, with another for the winter. Normally, they have boxes of the standard blue stuff everywhere, but today there was none. Even the good Rain-X stuff was just about sold out, and the other shelves of just odds n ends were looking a little barer than normal.

It looks like supply lines have never recovered from last year's lie, and if they do it again things like that may become unavailable. It may be nothing, but it's just an observation.

You go through more washer fluid in 6 months than I go through in twenty years. I still have about 1/4 of a gallon bottle that I bought in ~2005. Do you just drive with your sprayers going pretty much all the time?

No, my commute has about 25 miles of 70MPH wide-open interstate. There's a lot of dirt that gets picked up by doing that, especially in the winter because the stretch I travel is used by a lot of commercial traffic.

And, to be fair, this is normally what I would buy for the winter. I'm just getting my supplies in early this year. I feel like things are going to get strange soon.

I’ve had my car two years, still running on whatever the dealership put in there.

If you live in a rural area you'll use a lot more (gravel roads + bugs).
