Good, I hope all shops adopt this policy

Went to Sainsbury’s yesterday at lunchtime and there was no veg and no meat, though Lidl was fine, I think with Sainsbury’s it a lack of staff to put produce on the shelves and poor management as they got rid of loads, Lidl staff were putting out stuff and they even had soap!

her argument was if she is right we are prepared, if not we just have a lot of tins that we can eat

If i am right (supermarkets will eventually get on top of this) we just have a lot of tins that we can eat

If i am wrong and we have not bought stuff...

Think the supermarkets are regaining this already and the panic buyers have no further room to store anything. Even the big boxes of washing powder has been snapped up, looks like people are going to be sitting in doing a lot of washing for the next 6 months
