And that's the problem. Like I just said to Nicky, this kind of thing brings out the very best in people, and also the very worst.

Exactly,imo the cashier should have had the authority to take some of those off her, but then they would probably get abuse,I don't understand the mindset of people being selfish like that, especially when there is no food shortage as yet.

We should shame them with the shaming finger of shame. Cashiers should put their winkypop light on when they get a hoarder and we should all point at them and say "Shame on you.... "

I really wanted to say something to be honest, but the queue was massive so just wanted to get out of there

To be fair, that's pretty much standard in B&M...

I already bulk buy stuff from Amazon because it's cheaper, so long as you have somewhere to store it. Dog food, toilet rolls, cleaning stuff... And I do it through Amazon smile and every time I shop they give a donation to the RSPCA. Bloody love Amazon, even if they don't pay their tax.

Boxes upon boxes of ibuprofen on the shelves so people are clearly listening for a change

Prior to the warnings,people were already crazy buying it out , as paracetamol is a less stronger tablet . it's always been more popular than ibruforen .

Yes because that is what people normally buy for flu, demand is bound to go up...

Aldi are capping the number of stock that stores are ordering from the RDCs

[LukeB]

thankfully supermarkets have gave limits on all items so you can't buy more than 3 pastas etc. this should have been done as soon as people starting doing this. There wasn't any need to do it anyway

People are morons, the shops won’t be closed because of lock down.

Was told there was a massive ques in Tesco’s again this morning and one woman demanded to see a manager after only being allowed to buy nine toilet rolls.

[Amy Jade]

Asda today had signs up saying 3 of any item but only 1 pack of toilet rolls per person, they were policing it too, I was getting a drink and some crisps and the lady on fast lanes was stopping a guy trying to buy loads of meat

Try your local shop. They will have eggs and other things you can't find at the supermarket.
