I needed to pop into the local Aldi today- they have some cord/rope on
offer I need to repair my antenna which came down in the recent winds.

Senior Management instructed me to see if they had any of the particular
loo roll we use in the motorhome- sure enough they not only had a
reasonable stock but there didn't seem to be limit on how many you could
buy. I picked up a pack of nine- the normal supply for a longer trip. A
lady in the queue at the check out noticed the pack in my trolley and
asked me where they were- she'd been in a couple of other shops which
were cleaned out.

We also needed a couple of normal cleaning items, again they were
available but people were commenting that other places were out of stock.

So, it seems at least some places are still suffering from panic buying.

this is so sad

I was in an Asda this morning and there was a chap with a trolley load.
and I
literally mean a whole trolley load, of sliced white bread. You sometimes
get
cafes bulk buying in Asda but it would be a pretty big cafe to use all
that bread.
Its tastes like cardboard as it is, and not even the best kind of
cardboard
And is so soft that it just flops over if not supported just so muppets
will assume its fresh. So god knows what it would be like thawed out
after a few months in a freezer.

:Pretty dried up and solid basically because the water
gets removed.
