Â Hopefully those guilty will be reported by the public. Would it be local trading standards who deal with compaints of profiteering Edited March 18, 2020 by Mister M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I know there are reports of people buying stuff then trying to sell it in the car park I know the spar near the train station is now selling toilet roll at £1 a roll!! My point was, the supermarkets are trying to limit people buying goods and in true SF fashion someone was complaining about it.

John   11 #78 Posted March 18, 2020 (edited) Getting rid of those large shopping trollies would be one way to slow down the pace of stripping the store of all the goods given you can only carry half as much with the small one. Even better just have baskets and do away with shopping trollies altogether. Edited March 18, 2020 by John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

jaffa1   10 #84 Posted March 18, 2020 The small corner shops seem to have everything, give them the custom. My local chemist has all the toiletries including toilet rolls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
