Instead of wasting your time fretting about which stores to check or whether to order online, this handy website can check online inventory for you. Now, you won’t have to step outside and can keep your social distancing efforts going strong.
Don’t go out shopping. Try online instead
Per the CDC’s recommended guidelines, people should be staying indoors as much as possible to help flatten the curve of infection and slow the spread of the novel coronavirus and COVID-19. Unfortunately, we all still need to eat and recoup our supplies, which means occasionally venturing out of quarantine and into the virus-infested wilderness. And as anyone knows, social distancing is difficult when you’re surrounded by crowds of people looking for the same things you are. With supplies low, many people are forced to visit multiple stores to find the basics. This means anyone shopping around for supplies is potentially exposing themselves to coronavirus every time they’re around a new crowd of people. Wouldn’t it be great if you could get alerts when your must-have items come in stock? Well, that’s the idea behind NowInStock, a brilliant new web service that keeps tabs on the most popular items as they appear online.
Check inventory on NowInStock
Depending on what you’re looking for, you can set email, browser or text message alerts just by clicking the buttons on the left-hand side of the website. This service is free and there is even a plugin at the bottom of the page that allows you to discuss your findings with other users via Facebook. We recommend signing up for alerts so you’re not constantly refreshing the pages. Even if everything looks empty one minute, remember new items arrive all the time. If you can believe it, production and supplies are not running low. Demand is the biggest issue holding supplies back from local retailers. Hopefully, as we all adjust to our new, indoor way of living, we’ll see demand die down so supply can go back up.
