I dropped by an LD shop tonight hoping to purchase one item. The doors were locked, with signage that the stores were closed (I assumed they would have reopened by now). They had some staff on hand, mostly to pass along info to would-be customers and let pharmacy-goers in. The guy at the door said I can make an online order and pick it up. So I did so. The website said "available in under 30 minutes!", which was great! I wasn't getting the "item ready for pickup" email though, and eventually I went back and was told "we literally can't access the systems to handle the order", the ppl at the store are totally locked out of their online systems (I guess). Pretty dire. They will apparently start reopening stores in a "rotating" fashion, which is pretty surprising (especially for a company of this size). The guy had no clue when I'll be able to pick up my order.
