Bought 6 boxes of Blazer Brass .40S&W yesterday at Wal-Mart (a buddy actually called me during church! haha), limited to 6 boxes. That's fine, I was down to my last 2 boxes, and really should not have spent the $$ anyway.
Wal-Mart now allows only 3 boxes of ammo

I'm not sure why so many people are stockpiling ammo anyway. If it's for a go-to-war/armageddon situation, I can't imagine why you'd ever need that much. I mean, how many people do you plan on killing? If it's for hunting, you'd never use that much. If it's for practice, you'd be better off getting a progressive loader with part of what you are spending for ammo, and reloading your practice shells for a fraction of what new ammunition cost.
Now, if the zombies attack, that's a different story...

Also, a guy buys one skid a month, every month, of any ammo that comes in onit.(usally not a heck of alot). He slips the store manager 200 bucks cash every time. 
I will not post what store or who, but my source is trustworthy.

^^^That doesn't work either. It is not a companies place to question who the product is being purchased for. IT is their responsibility to know who they are selling the product to.
After the product is sold the company is released of liability.
As to the person with the 30 people response.
Are you saying that if you and your buddies are going to the range and you stop to get ammo that you should be treated as one person? That would be a really short range day
I got my six boxes of 9mm the other day 
Bought a 9mm pistol. Now no ammo.
I hate when you don't need something it is plentiful, when you need it it is no where to be found.
The local Academy now has a sign up limiting folks to five boxes. I asked a guy behind the counter how the ammo sales had been lately. He said demand for tactical rifles/ammo had slowed a bit but pistols were high and deer guns/ammo were starting to dwindle with hunting season approaching.
Today was the first time in a long time (months) that I have been able to buy ammo at Wal-Mart. I was there to get some other stuff I needed but I always check out the sporting goods place where they keep the ammo and I always check out the motor oil area.
I was able to get three boxes of 9 mm ammo. It is Federal (the guy told me Federal has bought out Blazer). The cartridge cases are brass but they can't be reused according to what the guy told me. Only about $9.00-$10.00 a box. I wish I could have bought ten boxes.
I think you were fed a line of [censored] by that guy.

I don't know if the guy at the Wal-Mart sporting goods area knew what he was talking about or not. I was just happy to be able to get three boxes of 9 mm ammo for between $9.00-$10.00 a box. I wish I could have got 10 boxes like I said above. The ammo said Federal on the boxes.
And yes, I always check the motor oil. But I was disappointed because I could not find the Mobil 1 High Mileage in 5W30 viscosity-only 10W-40 viscosity. I have been thinking about using that Mobil 1 HM oil after I finish the rinse phase of my Auto-RX cleaning.

It's still reloadable. If it weren't, there would be absolutely no reason for them to make it out of brass.
