Tesco online has a maximum allowance of 80 items a shop online from today.
All deliveries will be in bags. |

It is at my nearest Tesco, quite a few people being told to wait outside whilst one person went in. Also quite a few elderly people out with a younger family member therefore having to choose between sending the elderly person in alone, or leaving them outside alone.
Not all that well thought out, in my opinion. |

The police were installing barriers to queue outside my local morrisons tonight so I expect that will come into effect over the weekend :/ I only got a pack of dog food but I wish id got a proper shop as it might be very different the next time I go :/

At precious M&S today there was a queue and a one-in-one-out policy. Only 3 in the queue when I went though and I was queueing for less than 5 minutes.
Shelves were full though, no shortage of anything. Except... still no pasta. Has pasta gone extinct? |

They've also pre-bagged all of the loose baked stuff at the bakery section which TBH I feel like they should do anyway... I don't want to worry about some pervert fingering my victoria sponge muffin.

What about all the produce that’s been touched by other customers .. they just move things around or pick them up to read the label or sell by date ?? Surely there are the germs/bacteria everywhere? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Just try to put that risk in perspective I guess. You can't get into a car and drive down the road "risk free", all you can do is wear your seatbelt and drive as safely as you can to minimise the risk. There's not much in life that's risk-free. Maybe not anything at all. |

It was an example if you are buying loose produce surely people wash it before use and the cooking will kill off bugs

True, and with things like a tin of beanz the best practice would be to wash your hands after you've taken it from the cupboard, emptied it and binned the container. I wash my hands constantly while cooking anyway out of habit (working as a pub grub chef when I was at Uni).

This is an added problem that greedy people caused by stock piling there really was no need, went to Waitrose last night and still they are queueing Those selfish people have added to this worry.

Went to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription, and brought some Ibuprofen for a toothache for Ł2.99. Went to CO-OP for some milk, had tons of Ibuprofen and Paracetamol for 70p and 55p. First time I'd been out since the lockdown, read too much about all these shortages and 'panic' brought them in the pharmacy and am down Ł2.50 Oh well, got enough to stay in for while so all good.

The only thing I can never seem to get now is eggs? Where the **** have all the eggs gone.
I even got 16x Cushelle Ultra Quilted yesterday. What a treat. AND decent bread. They even had rice |

Just back from Tesco. Saw a guy buying 4 crates of San Miguel, 5 paellas and 3 sombreros.
I thought to myself... Hispanic buying.
