Shame they don't sell brain cells in Tesco's

[Spijed]

Panic buying begins one again!

You've got to say there are some really think, selfish and stupid people in this country.

Does say Costco, to be fair. Probably just shop owners sticking up given high demand last time around.

[Swizzlestick]

It’s the media sensationalism in rags like the Mail that often exacerbate the problem. Very tedious.

Also posting images of people and plastering them on their poxy website for others to get angry at, when nobody knows individual circumstances, is low but hey this is the Mail.

[wilks_bfc]

An out there thought I know but maybe those shopping at Costco and bulk buying are stocking up their own shops

[TheFamilyCat]

Imagine how bad it would be if covid gave you the shits.

[Rileybobs]

Whilst there are no doubt some selfish idiots around, if you pitch up to Costco on a weekend it would hardly be a surprise to see people buying things like toilet roll in bulk.

[Burnleyareback2]

I was at Costco a few weeks ago, the queue is basically down the limit they were allowing in the store. Once in there is was the easiest shopping experience, no queue at the tills and no abandoned trolleys blocking the aisles.

As above, that’s the only toilet roll you can buy, big multipacks and in normal times 50% of trolleys include it

Yeah, cos in that respect, it’s much different from all the other rags.

Talking of Tesco, their website is dogsh*t. I tried to alter an order the other day and the site kept dropping. It's now doing the same so I can't even book a slot for 2 weeks from now.

Tesco's as gone way downhill. I got thrown out even though i was wearing the most heavy-duty protective face covering of anyone in there. According to security though, my favourite leather gimp mask with the virus-blocking ball-gag in front was "Tremendously upsetting to the other patrons". Get a grip. there's a pandemic going on

[Jakubclaret]

The queues seem to be horrendous everywhere now, the range at Blackpool was long, I think it'll start going to whatever number out pairing up with whatever number in again so the stores aren't over congested, usually you've got more allowances & freedom apart from Sundays where things seem to shut at 4pm.

There'd be a toothpaste shortage or something

[FactualFrank]

Managed to get an order in for 2 weeks, finally.

Filled the trolley up with 812 toilet rolls.

[boatshed bill]

I looked at the queue for bog roll etc., and decided to buy a bidet instead

[cricketfieldclarets]

Another logic behind this may be just to limit the amount of shops you need to do.

I bought double the amount of baby milk, baby wipes and nappies I need today. Not because I think we will run out. And I have two family members who work at supermarkets so they could always get them. But just saves me making double the visits where I’m exposed to double the risk and double the hassle.

Yep that picture was definitely exacerbated.

[Stayingup]

There are definitely shortages. Outdoor dark mahogany varnish and home team goals at Turf Moor.

I hope you managed to stock up on paint so you don't have to break lockdown rules again after Thursday.

Because of selfish people like you others will have to do without!!

[Swizzlestick]

Which one of the 36 pictures on the sensationalised article of a store where people regularly buy in bulk was that?

[Jakubclaret]

Just be rest assured, you'll be the first person to be made aware of all my movements during the lockdown period to ensure I'm well behaved.

[tarkys_ears]

It's called TESCO you **** kicking heathen.

...and stop believing everything you read in a 2-bit newspaper that runs the same story every week or so

Maybe spelling 'thick' properly when slagging off stupid people, is the thing to do?

Good spot!

Muphry’s Law, ish.

[WadingInDeeper]

There were fewer delivery slots available at asda yesterday when I was trying to get my usual spot, it was also struggling to accept payment which suggests they were struggling with demand. Last week there were a lot less toilet rolls available.

[Taffy on the wing]

Yeah, cos in that respect, it’s much different from all the other rags.

The British press is the worst i've seen, bar none!

[Billy Balfour]

The tabloid press were largely responsible for the panic buying last time. They also build people up in order to knock them down and in some cases this has resulted in deaths, but what does it matter as long as they sell newspapers and increase their online advertising revenue.
