Distilled Water out of stock everywhere?

[Sir Beregond]

So I was getting the last of the parts I needed and wanted to get started on my Mayhems kit and flushing. 

 

But then my last road block to actually starting this project is....no distilled water in stock anywhere? What the heck!

 

Curious if other folks are seeing that issue in their area and what fellow water coolers are using instead?

Interesting, all out of stock here except supposedly one Walmart clear on the other side of town. I looked at 2 grocery stores, 2 Walmarts, 3 pharmacies, and a Target by me. All out.

Fine in Texas, might just be your local area.

[Sir Beregond]

Good to know, thanks.

We've got plenty here in rural upstate NY.

I haven't checked distilled in a while, but regular bottled water is in fine supply here so I'd imagine distilled would be the same.  Water aisles usually have plenty.  It's been mostly Gatorade and Lunchables, and weirdly enough meats that have been out of stock around here.  Mostly beef.  Easy to find turkey, ham, and chicken.

How interesting. Yeah I have at times noticed a lack of beef here as well.

 

As for water, there's no shortage of regular drinking water. It seems to specifically be distilled that nobody has.

I'm due for a grocery store run here soon anyway, I'll check next time I'm at the store.  You have me curious now lol.

Seen plenty of distilled in Walmart.  I just recently bought 6 gallons....but I'm using that for a radiator flush in my truck, not my computer.

Nice. I gotta do a coolant change in my car as well in about 9k more miles per the maintenance schedule.

I just got back from town and all stores I went it were well supplied as well, so hopefully your store will have more soon.  That reminds me though, I need to order some of my coolant... I haven't flushed it in 3 years ... although from the see through ports all looks well... honestly, I can't believe this loop is still going, it's about a decade old and was used on my old FX 8350 and later the 9590 I tried to kill.

yeeeah thanks for reminding me of the flush i need to do and the coolant i cant afford #collegelife

[Sir Beregond]

Guess its just my area then, thanks.

A couple months ago I experienced the same thing. Went to 4-5 stores before I found any. Noticed stock was normal the other day when I was at my usual grocery store. 

[Soulpatch]

Fortunately no issue on my end.  In montgomery alabama we had it everywhere, moved 900 miles north (Kansas City, MO) and there hasn't been an issue here either.  Which was good, since it was greatly needed to get back up and running. 

[newls1]

I have about 6758436745 gallon bottles in my local grocery store, so no.... no issue here

[Sir Beregond]

I found one store that seems to regularly stock it (but usually doesn't have much on shelf at a time), while the rest around here have been out of distilled ever since I made this thread. No idea what's going on around here then.

People should just make their own. It's pretty easy.

Don't you need a distiller, or is there a MacGyver way to do it?

Big pot of water with a bowl on top of the water and a lid upside down on the pot that seals the pot and makes the stream drip into the bowl.

Ah. Yeah that makes sense.
