Stockpiling for Brexit ....

[TheOstrich]

50tins of baked beans Jen I will know where to come when my 4run out
love branston ones as well
Haven't the cupboard space and no garage
might need to buy a shed

I'm keeping ours in the front bedroom, Saundra. Mrs O is none to happy about it, though …..

[JanB]

Berlimey, and I thought I was bad with that many jars of curry sauce

Will be adding to them when we go down to the Algarve

[saundra]

Ossie don't forget the cabbages for your soup or don't you need it any more the
If a jar of curry sauce you can borrow jan

[Kaz]

I have a very full chest freezer, plenty of meat, fish, veg, frozen fruit, prepared fresh sauces, as well as a fridge freezer with breaded fish, oven chips, burgers, B's SW meals, ice cream etc. I have cereals, rice, pasta, herbs, tinned tomatoes, beans, jam, marmite, tinned fruit, flour, sugar, tea etc in my pull-out larder and kitchen cupboards.

This is usual though, not because of potential shortages.

[Kaz]

Aye, Ossie, and don't forget that you need things that can be eaten cold in the dark.... for when the gas and leccy go off.

[cromwell]

I won't be stockpiling anything.
Like Saundra says, it's a self fulfilling prophecy.
If everyone panics and clears the shelves - yes, there will be shortages.
In other news, don't go out after dark after we leave the EU or the bogeyman is sure to get you.

Same as Kaz, it's something we've done for years. Regarding the beans, it's not that we eat more than the average, just E can't resist a bargain, he would hate to pay 'full' price. He's just as bad with instant coffee, we have 6 big jars in the cupboard most of the time and because we always drink the fresh stuff for brekkie we only have one cup of instant a day

Like Bank Holidays?

Bert, we need 15 loaves of toasty sliced bread, twenty 24 packs of Stella, 20 six packs of variety crisps, eight each of ready meal Balti chicken, Spagbol, C-con-C and chicken teeker masarler, and don't forget the bog rolls and 50 ltrs of milk. And Bert, bung in a few choc digestives as well Twixes, Mars bars and Haribo bags for the kids. Cheers doll.

Chips! I almost forgot chips. Them too, and maybe a few bags of chicken nuggets.

Thanks babe. Mwah.

I agree, it goes without saying that there'll be shortages if people are stockpiling non-perishables etc.

I don't want to offend anyone but I think it's a bit unfair that people are doing that and I do worry that it's going to have a knock-on effect with food banks if there aren't enough items on the shelf for personal purchases let alone for people to stick a few jars or tins in the collection container. This panic buying will hit the poor who either rely on food banks or have to stick to a tight budget and can't afford to stock up on extras just in case.
