Not stockpiling but admit to being a bit more careful to avoid running out of stuff. Before, we would arrive at supermarket, think “what do we need?”, get back home and realise we’d forgotten stuff. Now we actually think about what we need before going shopping. Might even make lists!

I tried to buy 10 bottles of 2ltr vimto you yesterday but was told I can only have four.
I explained to the asda worker I alway buy atleast 8 bottles every month .she agreed with me saying she remembers me buying them in previous occasions.
Its been roll back to £1.75 saving 25p a ltr.
So am off to a different store today LOL.

Nipped to shops this morning. Queues outside Asda and poundland. Luckily the cheap shop round the corner had bog roll, though not filled with confidence as my fingers went through the flimsy paper packaging, not a good sign!
Also bought some seeds and compost. If I have two kids at home for weeks then need some activities beyond TV, so we're going to get some plants started later today.

Went to Aldi Chadderton at 10am today to get some pastries. Absolute bedlam; carpark full, four tills open, people ransacking the long-life milk, no trolleys. This was only 10 minutes after open.
