Anyone else think media sites/newspapers etc should be held responsible for encouraging panic buying? Do we really need to be stocking up on mince pies and turkeys in September? Hmm

I put some loo rolls in the online order this week. Then I noticed we already had a big bag of loo roll at home. I’m feeling guilty now as I might have unintentionally started the March 2020 - like panic toilet roll shopping again. If you can’t find any loo roll next week - it’s my fault.

I haven’t seen any panic buying, however some sleeves are empty as there is a supply issue for some produce.

@HaudYerWheeshtYaWeeBellend Wrong thread. It's not about shelves.

Actually I think the government are too blame as well. They have told us not to worry. So many times in the last few months this has meant to opposite.
