[Ming the Merciless]

Just got some meths and a brown paper bag.

Not seen any panic buying in Aldi, but it's definitely busier... could it be corvid or could it be the annual influx of thousands of students?

There are flocks of crows in Aldi jostling their wings with the students?

It’s just hysteria and selfishness, we didn’t have any trouble getting anything in the last lockdown, but we did need to shop at a couple of different supermarkets to get everything we needed. The elderly don’t have this option if the shelves have been cleared of essentials at their local shops.

COVID panic buying is just foolish.

Brexit stockpiling is, however, eminently sensible.

Bought a couple of bottles of wine earlier but they've gone already. Oh well.

Sainsbury's wine offer is on. PANIC!

Surely the yeast would be better off used for making beer?

I've just realised I'm down to my last half-jar of Marmite. I've have to hit the shops with the utmost urgency.

T'was getting scarce before all this happened, again.

Best o'luck

Edwards Why the big secret? People are smart. They can handle it.
Kay : A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew there was enough toilet rolls for everyone . Imagine what you'll know tomorrow...

They haven't had mushy peas in the local Tesco for about 6 weeks. I'd go across the road to Aldi to get some,but i only go in there for beer and with Tesco price matching the last month or so i don't have to go. Wasn't there a mushy peas panic buying/stockpiling problem during the start of the March lockdown?🤔

I restocked my Brexit pantry at the same time as my Covid pantry.
I dont have a year's supply of food and 10000 rounds of ammution for every firearm but I do like to keep a buffer . My one family sized pack of toilet papet, bought in March, is only half used so I should make it through another 6 months . I was suprised that it lasted so long.
