All this virus is doing is making me hate people even more. Took me 3 supermarkets to find wipes for my 6mo because of people stockpiling them -yes I know I could use cotton wool but there's none of that either- watched a woman put 4 giant cases of bottled water in a trolley (we're in Scotland, there's nothing wrong with our tap water) a couple in my local sainsburys trying to buy half the shop then splitting up to two separate tills so staff wouldn't notice them. I understand people are worried but bugger me- get a grip!! I'm classed as high risk myself but I refuse to fall victim to the scaremongering, if people just shopped sensibly then there would be enough for everyone.

Yep it’s crazy. Still can’t find any toilet roll anywhere, now they are taking all the bread. Lucky I’ve got a few nappies and wipes

It’s the supermarket’s fault. A lot of them are encouraging panic buying by not restocking daily or imposing restrictions on individual buyers.

The thing with our village shop is that people are coming here to shop when they can't find things in the bigger supermarkets so putting an even bigger strain on them. Thankfully they now have restrictions in place to only buy 2 of each item
