Well, Supermarket is about the only place left open to spend money, everywhere else is shut.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time my daughter visits from London, she uses a full roll every time she goes to the toilet, I always stock up when I know she is coming.

alandrea0 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 STOP PANIC BUYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All these people bulk buying are causing problems for the old, vulnerable people with eating disorders... People with gluten intolerance like me are struggling to buy bread.. Supermarkets don't have a large stock of this bread as it is.. Supermarkets should restrict everyone to one item of each product........ People are acting as though the world is coming to an end...................And some people just don't care about others.. Went to Morrisons this morning and it was MANIC, worse than Christmas. One old bloke in front of me was coughing his guts up, spreading germs all over, didn't bother covering his mouth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shopkeeper paid a premium to get loo roll in stock and is passing cost on to his customers so no offence committed. I own a shop by the way and no cash and carry’s had toilet roll, hand sanitiser, paracetamol or ibuprofen just to name a few items but if I got hold of some and paid extra then I would also pass the extra cost on to the customer. That's common sense if you paid more, you usually have to cover that extra cost- but some retailers are taking it too far. Just reading from reports and also seeing some live situations- no need for businesses to take extra advantage. In particular if suppliers have not increased prices. Just now, Padders said: Think she is nicking em. Yeah lol. At this rate you will be dried out, given the shortage of loo roll, I'd take stricter measures.

PRESLEY Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Glad I decided to bring my shopping trip forward to Aldi at Handsworth at 9am this morning, lucky I did the shelves containging eggs, milk in boxes, toilet roll, paracetamol were empty, freezers were spas in fact some of them were empty, the checkout ques were from one end of the shop to other, if I had gone at 10am or 11am there would have been no ques because by this time, there would have been hardly owt to sell.
