It was back in March when cleaning items started disappearing from grocery stores, in the initial pandemic panic.Remember the runs on toilet paper? For three months, you couldn't find any.But here we are, six months later, and many items are still in short supply."Sometimes bleach, and paper towels," one grocery shopper told us. "Clorox wipes we cannot find," another said.But disinfecting items are just the beginning of the waves of product shortages that have hit during this year of COVID-19, and much of it has nothing to do with panic buying.So we checked into 10 things still in short supply, and why they remain so elusive.1. Lysol and Clorox wipesNext to hand sanitizer (which is now readily available), disinfecting wipes remain the Holy Grail of grocery items these days.But with hospitals, schools, and businesses snapping them up by the truckload, grocery shoppers will be among the last in line to get them as long as the pandemic rages.You can add Lysol, Clorox bathroom cleaner, Scrubbing Bubbles, and Formula 409 to the list, for the same reasons.2. Paper towelsUnlike toilet paper, which is now readily available, paper towels remain hard to find.Paper producers devoted the summer to increasing toilet paper production, and now there is almost too much. Some stores put toilet paper where cleaning products used to be to fill empty shelf space.But paper towels are bulky to ship, and manufacturers have not increased production as much, according to the Wall Street Journal. So don't expect much to change soon.And they are as in-demand as all cleaning products.3. Yeast and baking flourThe springtime lockdown saw millions of Americans turn to baking, and that in turn led to huge shortages of baking products. Luckily, these shortages are just about over, as we return to bakeries and restaurants.4. Canning jars and lidsWith worries of food shortages that never happened, millions of people started growing tomatoes and other vegetables that now need to be harvested and canned.The result: an uncanny shortage of canning supplies that is expected to linger through the winter. Expect to pay a lot for canning lids, especially.5. BicyclesThis may be the biggest shortage of all, next to Clorox wipes.Beth Tessler was shopping for a bike recently. But the showroom floor was empty, save for small children's bikes and high-end racing bikes, leaving her stunned by the prices."The cheapest bike we found was ,000," she said. "The most expensive was ,500."Store manager Terry Powell said mid-priced Bianchi and Schwinn bikes are on back order."Demand has been through the roof this year," he said. "A lot of people have been pulling old bikes out of barns and garages and trying to get them fixed up because they can't find the bicycle they are looking for."6. Swimming poolsJust like with bicycles, stay-at-home orders meant people needed activities to do at home. So all spring, they snapped up above-ground and in-ground pools.You now may have to wait several months to have an in-ground pool installed.7. AppliancesWhen it comes to appliances, things are not as tough as finding a bicycle. But still, if you are looking for a specific French-door fridge with two drawers and water in the door, you might have to settle for something else.Jeffrey Boggs owns an appliance shop where every day he deals with customers frustrated by kitchen appliances on back order."It started with freezers, and it's gradually getting into every appliance," he said. "Microwave, range, everything is difficult to get right now." He blames two factors: plant shutdowns this spring, and shipping delays from China.He said you can find a fridge or washer if you need one, but don't have your heart set on one particular model.With factories up to full steam again, he expects supplies to rebound this fall.8. Laptops, children's desksYou can thank remote, Zoom learning for this shortage. Inexpensive laptops and Chromebooks are very hard to find, as parents and schools snapped them up all summer.Stores predict shortages should ease by Black Friday. Until then, be careful buying from unknown web sellers.9. CoinsIf you have been Krogering the past two months, you probably have seen signs warning of a coin and change shortage, but it's more than an inconvenience.Jamie Lusk owns a laundromat. He struggles to keep quarters in stock."My customers use quarters to run these machines," he said. "And when I can't go to the bank to purchase quarters, then they can't run the machines."10. Beer and Coke cansThis one is not a current shortage that is just starting to get worse: aluminum cans are in short supply.Craft brewer Scott LaFollette is concerned about the sudden aluminum can shortage, which is forcing breweries to wait longer and pay more for their shipments."It is just in the beginning stages, so it's probably going get much worse before it gets better," he said.The good news: there is no shortage of beer, and if you don't mind glass, there is plenty of beer to drink.You might need a drink just keeping up with all the new shortages that seem to pop up every week.As always, don't waste your money.___________________________Don't Waste Your Money" is a registered trademark of Scripps Media, Inc.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) ¡ª University of Notre Dame students are now subject to mandatory coronavirus testing with stricter penalties if they leave town before getting their test results after thousands of fans stormed the football field and threw parties to celebrate a double-overtime upset over Clemson.Notre Dame President, the Rev. John Jenkins, said in an email Sunday that students must undergo coronavirus testing before leaving South Bend, Indiana, for the winter break.Jenkins says if a student is exposed or tests positive, they must quarantine on campus for two weeks. Students who don't complete the test can't register for classes.According to the Associated Press, students will face "severe sanctions" if they host a large gathering.As of Monday afternoon, the university's online COVID-19 dashboard showed six new cases reported on Sunday, giving the school 1,382 total positive cases among students and staff members. Of that total, the school estimated 221 active cases.In a resolution passed Thursday, Notre Dame's Faculty Senate formally expressed disappointment in Jenkins for failing to wear a mask at Amy Coney Barrett's nomination ceremony at the White House Rose Garden, the AP reported. Jenkins tested positive for COVID-19 in October. 1263

In post-Brexit Britain, trips to the European Union will get a little more expensive for millions of Brits in search of a continental break.The European Commission confirmed on Friday that UK travelers will be required fill out an online form and cough up €7 (.90) for visa-free travel, which will be valid for three years.Natasha Bertaud, a spokeswoman for the commission's President Jean-Claude Juncker, likened the "simple form" to the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) scheme used by the United States -- which requires travelers to pay to apply for permission to enter the country.She also pointed out that the EU's version, called ETIAS, will be "way cheaper."But this all comes with a major caveat. If the UK crashes out of the EU with no agreement in place, Brits will be required to get a visa to travel to the EU, a commission spokeswoman told Reuters on Friday.ETIAS, which is expected to come into force in 2021, will apply to countries outside the EU whose citizens can currently travel in Europe visa free. There are currently 61 such countries, including the United States, Israel and Singapore.It will cover the so-called Schengen group of 26 European countries that share largely open land borders.The electronic visa waiver system was conceived to "identify any security or irregular migratory risks posed by visa-exempt visitors traveling to the Schengen area while at the same time facilitate crossing frontiers for the vast majority of travelers who do not pose such risks,"?according to the commission. 1554
