Okay Boomer

2020-03-17 23:35:01 UTC  

first they were 24hr, then they were 6-midnight, and suddenly since last week they're 6-10

2020-03-17 23:35:08 UTC  

Thats such a boomer take.

2020-03-17 23:35:21 UTC  

tbh i havent looked lately at opening times, i didnt think

2020-03-17 23:35:35 UTC  

worst case, i'll push old people over and rob them

2020-03-17 23:37:08 UTC  

so i'm being forced to break quarantine less than 24 hours in 🙂

2020-03-17 23:37:25 UTC  

thanks tesco

2020-03-17 23:37:39 UTC  

im off to work this week, cant afford to live on SSP

2020-03-17 23:56:25 UTC  

So there is a legitimate reason then? @Crafty

2020-03-17 23:57:01 UTC  

They can't keep the shelves stocked

2020-03-17 23:57:09 UTC  

so they want more time to do so

2020-03-17 23:57:16 UTC  

without people ransacking the place

2020-03-17 23:57:33 UTC  

Makes sense

2020-03-18 00:06:22 UTC  

hope y'all got food for a while

2020-03-18 00:07:58 UTC  

Its like being in the 2nd World War

2020-03-18 00:08:14 UTC  

yep

2020-03-18 00:09:12 UTC  

only without the bombing, and (afaik) supply chain issues

2020-03-18 00:09:22 UTC  

it's mostly due to panic buying at this stage i think

2020-03-18 00:09:27 UTC  

so they have trouble keeping shelves full

2020-03-18 00:09:35 UTC  

good thing nothing sentient is trying to kill us

2020-03-18 00:09:59 UTC  

but this is why it was a good idea like a month ago to get a few weeks of extra supplies

2020-03-18 00:10:04 UTC  

before everyone went nuts

2020-03-18 00:10:32 UTC  

guess a lot of people will be showering their asses soon

2020-03-18 00:10:37 UTC  

cant get bog roll anywhere

2020-03-18 00:12:15 UTC  

the only think I am worried about is milk.
I didn't get the idea of buying lots and freezing it

2020-03-18 00:12:35 UTC  

yeah i've got frozen milk, but i dont care that much about it tbh

2020-03-18 00:12:36 UTC  

might have to have something else for breakfast

2020-03-18 00:12:45 UTC  

just use it in drinks

2020-03-18 01:00:34 UTC  

Well, I'm not too sure what's happening, as I stopped listening to the news

2020-03-18 05:53:27 UTC  

You guys don't have canned milk

2020-03-18 06:56:59 UTC  

Imagine not having introduced a law to prevent price gouging in times of crisis.

price gouging makes sense, and it takes 2 brain cells to make sure you are never a victim of it

2020-03-18 06:58:00 UTC  

Someone raised the price of something eightfold, bam, fines.

"oh shit, a highly infectious virus is slowly breaking its way out of the original country, maybe i should grab that extra bad of rice"

2020-03-18 06:59:09 UTC  

> it takes 2 brain cells to make sure you are never a victim of it

how can braincells prevent retailers from increasing prices on essentials?

2020-03-18 06:59:29 UTC  

or do I just NOT buy hand sanitiser?

i dont see a problem with them raising the price of something to suit demand, you're just telling them to run their business improperly.
