Aye.
Two of us and any guests.
I use a full one a day for coughing and sneezing.
Probably use far too much in the loo mind.

Wow we are 2 a week on average

it must be a Scottish thing LT, if you fold it in half, then half again and so on, you can get as many wipes as you need :laugh:

aw right that makes sense then, we have to be careful as the drains are so narrow if you over do it the Thames Water people have to come out to blast the drains, when my eldest son is home its usually when it happens, he seems to need half a roll in one go :idc:

yes, i have been told that in England they use more than one Square per constitution :shocked:

shameful waste

Well... after resisting I finally succumbed to the panic. I bought quite a few boxes of paracetamol and ibuprofen, a load of chicken for the freezer and a load of passata, pasta and rice.

I'm not panic buying. I do my food shopping every week at Lidl. Anything I don't find in there, I go to my local shop.

Yes I succumbed a week or so ago .. now I’ve got stock to last a month or so .. any member of our family or even neighbours are welcome to a few tins of beans or corned beef if they’re desperate BUT if it’s someone who’s said that there’s no need to buy extra they can whistle..

what if you get a sniffle and have to self isolate for 7 days Ness, I would get a few bits in just in case

No sanitiser in local chemist now, but local homeless guy has brains. Hes under the underpass as usual, selling sanitiser for a fiver a bottle :D Bit worried for him actually thinking about it, people are getting so hysterical I can see him being mugged for it!

Our local Asda has no toilet roll, hand soap or sanitiser and no pasta of any sort. Its madness lol - the local quality save had a delivery of soap this morning, rationed it to 2 per customer and it was sold out by dinner time.

Try the local shops. Mine have everything. From toilet paper to hand soap

Apparently Covid 19 is eliminated by strong vocals so stream Leona Lewis- I Am on Spotify. Other streaming services are available.

I was hungry so panic bought a sandwich.

The effects have now subsided.

Apparently you can make your own with aloe vera and alcohol, have a swig of vodka while making it :laugh:

Our corner shop is stocked but the shopkeeper said warehouses are running short. We'll see.

people are missing the point with these sanitisers. You don't need to kill the virus before it disappears down the plug hole, you simply need to wash it off your skin

Okay so there has been a significant shift in shopping habits, just went into Sainsburys to get my Friday wine

No toilet roll
No kitchen paper
No pasta
No porridge/Weetabix/shelves half stocked with other cereals
Soup/Bean/pulse aisle low stock

Some other shelves bare, not sure what was on them

Got talking to a man on the way out who had been in the restaurant, the staff had to go to another Borough to get teabags, so no tea either

I mean, it makes our forward thinking on here look like genius

Gav is going to be doing our weekly shop after work today so hopefully it won't be too manic/empty shelved in there. Glad we picked up a few bits to keep us going just in case but people do need to relax a bit with the panic buying now............fingers crossed there's some wine left :skull:

The wine shelves were full, but then I live in a very Asian area so I hope I can rely on the wine not going for a while :hehe:

I went in Lidl today for a couple of pastries. The pasta shelf was bare, and then at the counter, there was a man who'd filled his basket up with hand sanitiser. But the woman told him he could only buy 2.

Our store's all out of toilet paper but strangely enough we've got boxes full of the toilet paper wet wipes/towelettes. I've been grabbing a packet or two here and there just in case because the panic buying will cause a massive shortage before long.

just discovered one of our frozen foods we bought had a expired date D:

24th february :skull:

crazy eh, I think only Tesco put a limit on how much pasta etc you could buy, but then what would stop you going back in and buying more?

Don't put them down your drains as they don't disintegrate :sad: and your drains will bung up in no time

i don't need anything, so i wonder if i should start a new trend and panic buy elastic bands or something

fill your basket and the person behind you in the queue is sure to run off to do the same :laugh:

I’m off to costco on Sunday, i think panic buying is ridiculous, but if everyone else is doing it, might as well join in so the lunacy doesn’t leave us without

Sunday! you will be lucky if there is anything left :laugh:

Just been shopping. There was no pasta, no toilet roll, no beans, no flour, no soap. It was mad and there were signs saying 1 per customer. Rations?! Is there a war on

The worst thing is I couldnt get baby milk it is all sold out. Which isnt good with a baby coming in the next few weeks....

Please do this :hehe:

My best advice is try to shop online.
You can mooch around all the supermarkets and see who has what in at any one time.
If you buy a six pack of beans or soup etc it counts as one of your ration allowance, so bulk buying helps.

even neems posts have run out D:

My posts will never run out!

Can you not see that picture?

no

:worry:

Weird, I can see it :laugh:

How about now ?

We did an online shop at Tesco but couldn't get a delivery till Monday,so it will be interesting to see if they have everything we ordered,but it was a normal food shop ,not even ordered toilet rolls or antiseptic handwash,I always have those anyway.I did notice at our local Waitrose there doesn't seem to be any shortage of things, so will go there if necessary.

i think LT has been blinded by his panic buying Neem
