The Shortages

 N-TV talked about general shortages being noticed now by grocery stores.

Coke in a can?  It's getting harder to find it in German grocery stores.

Candy has gotten on the list of 'hit-and-miss'.

Various tobacco products are in limited supply.

So the reasons?  Stores say a logistical bottleneck now exists.  They also point at this going across the spectrum....including gas stations, kiosks, and stop-and-go situations.

Higher cost for raw aluminum?  That plays into anything that is put into a can.  You can probably expect canned items to escalate at least 10-percent in the near-term.
