What are you panic buying?

[scifisam]

This would appear to be the sum total of my neighbours delivery. What should I do? View attachment 280370

That's how I usually get mine every few months - works out way, way cheaper and it's easy to store.

My delivery keeps being delayed, though... Do you live in east London?

Lots of empty shelves in a Sainsbury's superstore yesterday. I am told there were also empty shelves in Marks and they have stopped baking bread.

Is that because they have run out of the ingredients to bake bread or is it a staffing issue?

A couple of weeks ago I had a Sainsbury’s food delivery and the driver said that I was fortunate to have milk as they hadn’t had milk for deliveries for a couple of days because of many lorry drivers getting “pinged” by the app.

I've decided to give up smoking, so I just panic bought a fancy vaping thing.

If I was to actually panic-buy jarred salad, I would have to carry 12 home instead of six in my Ikea totes.
I'm amazed I've so far managed not to break any on the 170 metres home.
In any case they rarely have more than six of the two types I like.
I get through a kilo jar every day- half green tomato, half cucumber.

I'm building up my bread flour stash again since it's now available in Aldi and Tesco.

It's worth hanging on to for a while - I imagine that weevils are quite nutritious...

ETA :*checks own flour stash for weevils

 

[Puddy_Tat]

but you should never settle for the lesser of two weevils...

The queues are so long for petrol at the sainsbos hypermarket that they have 3 people controlling the traffic this is part of one queue

NB. There were huge queues to get into sainsbos. Coming out, the specially created and managed petrol queue is over 40 cars in length.

They are legal aren't they?

I'd ban them. Everyone should just slow the fuck down.

Buses? Sounds a bit rushed. I think we should build more canals.

Everyone just stay where you are. Have a sit down. Maybe a cup of tea.

I was driving home when Grant Shapps came on the radio telling us not to panic buy fuel, I looked at my half full tank, stopped at the next petrol station and filled up! well you can't be too careful can you!

Very sensible. Anything Grant Shapps says - do the opposite.
