What will you be stocking up on 'Just in case ' ?

I am going to bow out of the 'employing under 18's debate', I have made my point, it stands, I see no need to repeat myself (and would appreciate if folk stop tagging me to keep telling me they are right and I am wrong, all experiences are valid). It feels like the general slating of young folk discussion that happened recently too.

TBH, discussing 'employing under 18's' is way off topic of this thread titled "What will you be stocking up on 'Just in case ' ? so best left anyway.

Somewhat relevant if shopping in a supermarket I guess. Someone puts the stock on the shelves and it’s not a job most are desperate to do, at least amongst the folks I know. Around here getting stock to fill those shelves has been problematic for many months and there is no certainty of being able to purchase the items you seek. I think someone mentioned ‘Corned Beef’ earlier. I spotted it at £3.00 a tin in our local Coop. I can’t remember if it was branded or not.

My local Asda has own brand & 2 brands of corned beef, and a low-salt version too... obviously I live in an area of high demand!

Mentioning items that seem to be in short supply - regardless of the reason they are not on the shelves - is different from a discussion on 'employing under 18's' - imho anyway.

I'll leave it there.

I was in my local Lidl on Friday & was quite surprised at the empty spaces in the fridges, and no veg oil either.  Glad I had bought a couple in Morrisons last month, they will keep me going for quite a while.
