Shops in Sunderland with toilet rolls and other essentials

Post by Sunderland Nut »

I was in Tesco at the Wheatsheaf and there was no bread, tinned meat or any toilet rolls.
The same in Aldi and Farmfoods.

If you know of any shops with essential supplies like these can you post them here.

I bet some of these toilet roll factories are working round the clock.

They are all getting supplies but just selling out early so go to the shops in the morning instead of afternoon.

Tesco today at 12 midday and again no bread.
They had a few expensive bread buns but nothing else in the way of bread.
Tinned meat, pasta and rice - non existent just like the toilet roll.
My diet has changed.

They are still saying don't panic buy.
Are they sure they are actually filling up the shelves at all?

Considering the same shelves are empty every time I go in Tesco, I doubt it.
Covering something up?
