The idiocy (and selfishness) of panic buying

Trouble is some of the oldies are fussy buggers.
One asked me to get them a loaf of soft white bread or a particular brand of cheese!
I managed it but when I go for bread I’m glad to get any loaf!
 
Went to the big Tesco in Stockport yesterday around 9:30pm. Looked like a post apocalypse scene.

I did see Phil Foden + Family.

You people need to understand that pro footballers also got to eat.
 
If you’re reading this and you’ve got a freezer full of food, just in case, then I’d like to let you know that you are a first class selfish twat. I’d hoped that this would bring people together, I still have hope reading some messages in here though.

People like you people are keeping us going bud and I thank you for that, the selfishness the public are displaying is beyond the pale. It was easy for me today because most of the stuff on sale I can eat but feeding children must be a lot harder in this environment.

Again and I mean this sincerely thank your wife and yourself from me and mine, I thanked the checkout staff this morning too because without them we wouldn't be getting fed.

Whereabouts are you ?
I’m going out later and don’t mind picking up bits if it helps out .
Plus, it’s cathartic to point at the knobheads in store buying dried pasta .
Im sure this could be a wake up css as ll if other people want to help out too .

Thank you both so much, i've actually managed to pick up some eggs, flour, cheese and a bit of fruit and veg today as i've been out on the road and just popped my head in a random co-op, they had a decent stock of stuff but didn't want to get more than was needed, at least now we can make some buttys as my Mrs is a decent baker!

Also passed on your thanks regarding NHS staff which was very appreciated, she is exhausted at the moment but really does take great pride in helping people. Stay safe.
 
It's such a piece of piss to make fresh pasta it's quite ridiculous how everyone is fighting over dried stuff. Though once the penny drops supermarkets will probably sell out of flour and eggs too.
 
STOP FUCKING BUYING STUFF!! You thick, ignorant, selfish twats.

Agent Smith in The Matrix had it right:
I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.

Our supermarket sold out of bread flour over three weeks ago, apart from the expensive organic stuff.
Last week no plain flour to be had anywhere.
Went in yesterday and they had a couple of packets so got one for my son in law.

Sales of freezers are through the roof, selfish buggers buying them and then raiding the supermarkets.

But also been told that the supply chain is extremely well stocked, warehouses absolutely full of long life stuff, and they're just waiting for the idiocy to calm down. We'll get there blues.

will people really stop stocking up ? I just can’t see it.
 
Going to walk up to the village coop now, hopefully they have some stuff in for burgers as i fancy a big dirty bacon cheese burger with a side of wedges and slaw. If i see panic buyers i'll boot my dog up the arse and tell him they did it and that they said "cats rule".

Sounds good.
Went to our butcher on Tuesday morning and said he’d been cleared out the day before.
He made us two fresh beef burgers there and then. Mind you they had a Cumberland ring as big as a football.
 
Too many inconsiderate bastards in this world,went in Tesco’s for toothpaste,little old lady crying and shaking fuck all on the shelves and this lady probably went through the war,absolute twats.
 
Had a blazing row with one of the staff this morning who proudly boasted that he's fine for food as he's been buying extra stuff for weeks and storing it into his new chest freezer and 7ft fridge freezer he recently bought.

Thinks fuck all wrong with it as others are hoarding so he had to!!

Fat **** has bought more beans to last 4 months!!

Fucking fuming i was, the selfish **** needs to stop boasting about it or the first thing people will do if they can't hold of stuff will be robbing his house next.

There will be some who read it of that you can be sure.

Whats more these are not the usual suspects who get labelled as low life and the like, as they usually have fuck all and not the money to have been part of this disgrace.

No these cunts are relatively well of and suitably heeled to be able to afford to spend hundreds of pounds. The very same who will pontificate over right and wrong and always claim to be on the moral high ground.

Well now the truth is there for all to see they are an absolute shower of cunts and a blight on society. I hope many on here who will know some of these people will have the fortitude and anger to let them know what they are.

I for one will search them out until my dying day the pricks.

Well done get the cunts told.
 
We've had a busy morning but have got most of what we need. Have to do it all again in a couple of days though
