Rationing has happened in some places, on some items. We plan on making our normal weekly shop tomorrow, as long as the stuff is there to buy! We will need toilet roll too

There's no signs in any store I've been into.
They haven't in tesco, I don't think. They should treat toilet paper like they do with painkillers...2 packs per transaction. Obviously this could still be abused, but it's a start.

In my opinion, the retailers in tandem with the government should come out and say how they will get supplies to households in the event we get into an Italy style lockdown.
I believe that will calm the instances of panic.

Yes, Tesco’s have. I was there this morning and the checkout staff have lists - pasta being one of them. The person behind me was stocking up on nappies and formula milk.
The problem is, only one person needs to panic buy for everyone else to do the same. Otherwise you may run out yourself.

I reckon they need to up their 'click'n'collect' game. Most of us can order online, even if we need to do it for those not computer literate too. Then we drive down and pick up our supplies. If the car park is quite empty they can set up temporary pick up points, spaced out, staff taking the right precautions. I would happily pick up supplies for neighbours which I could put by back doors, give a knock and walk away. If I used hand sanitiser before picking the bags up and dropping them off it should be safe enough, hopefully if I catch it someone will do that for us.

They did this morning to my wife and i . Innocently bought 6 tins of mushy peas as per usual and when we were going through the checkout the assistant said he could only let us have 5. Haven't heard the end of it off my wife 😂. She generally eats her body weight of mushy peas 😂

Weirdly, I've begun to wonder what Americans call Toilet Rolls. Rest Room Rolls? Serious question.
Went to Costco in Chester this evening. Usually quiet on a Friday evening but it was manic, people buying those blue rolls instead of toilet rolls Never seen the shelves so empty of things.

Should I expect trouble tomorrow when I nip to Tesco for copious amounts of Staropramen and Monster Munch?
Hmm, once I see alcohol mentioned, I keep thinking of this min price per unit, could not have come at a worse time, i think, especially if pubs close, go down the supermarket and pay double the price, thanks for fck all welsh assembly, got to be one of the worst decisions ever made in my book, If it was England as well fair enough!
And the cheeky kuntz say moderate drinkers will only notice a few pennies increase, yeah right if you drink one bottle of beer a week.

£9.99 for a bottle of house rum in Aldi/Lidl. Now £13 odd.
Thanks a f*cking bunch Senedd.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Tesco tonight was crazy. No toilet roll, pasta, beans tinned tomato, flour, bread, longlife milk, and lots of other stuff. People are stocking up. It's expected.
