I guess I have been living under a rock, but I went into this shoe store called Shumaker at the mall the other day and discovered it was a Canadian shoe company. Indeed, they even have their own shoe brand called 'Stepwell', launched about 5 years ago. They also sell other shoe brands.
The saleslady in the store told me about Stepwell as the brand was new to me. I asked how busy the store was these days due to the coronavirus scare. She said it was on and off. Then she mentioned going to the grocery store the previous evening looking for a can of kidney beans and they were all gone. She laughed in disbelief but as the days wear on, things are just getting more scary.

I had to run out tonight and get a few last minute goodies and the stores were dead quiet and I was at four different stores. Lots of tinned beans still left. But also dried ones (which I got). Pasta too and more peanuts. Tim got me strong flour this week so lots of yummy homemade peanut butter and bread for us. Yeah, baby.
Stay safe Christine. And mostly, enjoy your time with loved ones.
Yes, things are hard just now and will be getting worse. People are stockpiling like crazy. Stay safe, hugs, Valerie
It is bad for me too, these shelves are all empty and people are buying in bulk now. The fear increases here too!
Take care and stay healthy!
hugs Elke
People in panic mode is never good.
This panic is not good. It will make things worse.
I live in Canada and have never heard of this store and brand of shoe. they must not be in western Canada or are only in the large cities.
Same to you.
We are well stocked in our home.
Did you buy any shoes? Nice to find something made in your own country. It's not always easy to find. As are paper towels, toilet paper, and many other groceries in our stores. It's definitely hit and miss.
Stay safe!!!
We are stocked in our homes here!
Hmmh, i hate corona. That's makes me soo sick. Everything is close and everyone is scary that's makes me sad too. I hope our world will get better soon.

We'll get through this!
NO kidney beans....yikes...what is the world coming too!! We are on Lock Down at the Villa. But life goes on.
Scary indeed. We are heading out this p.m. I'm concerned about getting orange juice.
Take best care.
It is a very weird time for us all. Be safe and enjoy some quiet time.
They have some really cute boots!!
Hubby and I went to three stores today just to get one meal's ingredients...crazy!!!
Happy St. Patty's Day🍀
That's nice about the shoe store. Same things going on down here. I am very happy we have enough to not have to worry about the supermarket shelves being mostly empty now. We will have to explore more options as time goes on. Hopefully things will settle down soon. It gives an uncomfortable feeling as it is so surreal and can't quite believe this is happening, except you know it is.
I found none from the stores, almost all of shelves are empty.
it's a crazy world right now for sure - ...but then it has been for so long - hope you all stay healthy!
Don't know that shoe store!
We are living in scary times, people are stripping shop shelves bare!
I am hoping that in time this will stop and we can all get the essentials we need.
All the best Jan
i liked the name of company :)
