What are you still finding it hard to source?

[mommybunny]

I’ve been going to my local Sainsbury’s each Wednesday morning for my family’s essential shopping and finding some of the same stuff week after week is still really hard if not impossible to get.

Flour of any kind
Peanut butter
Rice
Baking powder (though scored a box of 6 sachets today!)
Caster sugar
Dried beans

Conversely, I have had no problems whatsoever getting eggs or bread, or meat or fresh produce, since the beginning of the lockdown. There was a weird period a couple of weeks ago when reasonably priced wine was scarce but thank god that’s been sorted.

What’s still missing from your supermarket shelves?

@Dk20 have you tried Bella Baby for your mattress?

We still haven’t been able to get:
Pasta
Rice
Hand gel
Dettol wipes (or different brand equivalent)

Pasta and kidney beans

Flour
Yeast
Frozen peppers
Branston baked beans
Dried red lentils

It's really the flour that's starting to frustrate me as I've nearly run out and I really do like baking!

@ShoppingBasket cant get anything in dunnes in his size, will try next now, didn't realise they'd started delivering in Ireland. Thanks.

@fiddlersgreen I'll check bella baby now, thanks

Eggs still tricky but just bought a tray of 30 at local farm

Now I feel rich (2 vegetarian teens to feed)

Dishwasher tablets

Yeast and bananas
No problem with flour, pasta or rice

We got a 25kg bag of 00 flour a few weeks ago.

Cannot find plain or SR flour anywhere.

@fiddlersgreen I got hand gel in M&S today

I can't get
Plain flour
Food bags
Wraps

And it took me ages to get size 6 nappies

Flour has been a nightmare to get. Managed to get some first thing this morning at Lidl!

Flour here. But not because people are buying it. Supermarkets have said here none of them have had delivery of flour in weeks. So it not there to buy

Tesco’s own bran flakes - not been able to buy any for last 5 weeks!

Rice
Knorr ham stock cubes
Tinned tomatoes, but have got passata.

I've got flour, eggs and pasta!

@laurendelight

Where do you live?

Flour
Yeast
Eggs (sometimes)

Flour and eggs

yes our local bakers said there is an issue with flour production (or import maybe?) that's why there isn't any. It isn't because everyone is suddenly on a sourdough quest. (although they are).

Hand soap

Yeast! I finally have strong flour but have enough yeast for about a loaf, or maybe two.

I've just ordered a home delivery from bidfoods, yeast and a 16kg sack of bread flour and 60 eggs! I'll be bagging up the flour and yeast and dropping some to family and friends.

Yeast has been totally unavailable and baking powder I got off amazon in the end.

Frozen veg is hard to get, and big bars of chocolate (I was looking to be nosey on ocado, we need no chocolate).

Husband and kids like a certain peanut butter, haven't seen it for weeks.

Caster sugar
Hand wash
Medium brown hair dye

Antibacterial hand wash
