Eh. By what I’ve read this was more ‘practice’ for a week long blackout. People don’t seem to understand though that those goods are needed period and all it will do is create a weird spike in supply/demand before and after the week/day. General focused boycotting on non-essentials is impactful, but one day? You’re just going to go out and buy the day before or after. That doesn’t even create a blip for suppliers.
European here. So how did this go yesterday? News coverage?
