The anticipation of Hurricane Irma is a difficult waiting game for businesses.  Restaurants have to figure out if they need to order a little – or a lot, payroll companies want payroll amounts early so they can make sure checks get out in time, property managers start seeing the cancellations rolling in, car repair shops get rush orders on the cars already in their shops and the repairs that people have been putting off, are suddenly – very important. However, if you are a grocery store or a dollar store – things are more certain. Storm or not – people want water – and beer – apparently.  I had a message Monday evening that our Navarre Walmart was wiped out of beer and water and it was a week before we may even see a rain shower due to Irma.
