Need a sealed water pack for Saturday - inland Cargills still open or wait for morning
We will not do the 8.40 bucket-of-bottles thing again. Maps shows a Cargills Food City a few minutes inland. Partner says they will be shut because Perahera. I say they are a supermarket not a lake restaurant. Do we walk it now while the alleys are moving or is 9.14 already the padlock.

An inland Cargills is a better bet than anything on Dalada. 9.14 is late but not impossible on a Friday - walk it now if the alley tape is down, buy more water than you think, and get off the route. If the shutter is down, morning is fine; Saturday afternoon is when you actually need the pack, not tonight. Do not send one person alone down a dark parallel.
Thursday we caught an inland Food City on the walk back and it saved Saturday. Lake-front was dead.
Sealed pack > loose bottles from a basin. I will not quote a shelf price.
