Spent just under four hundred quid this week on supplies.the missus went out and got two loads earlier this week
Nipped into Asda on the way back from the climbing wall and bought loads of Budvar, Black Sheep, Stella and many bottles of Zummerset Zider, at 8.2%
Also bought stacks of fruit juice and another thirty bog rolls. I think we've now got nearly 80 bog rolls in the house.
Oh and I got some chilli flakes and garlic granules.👿😃😫
Barmy
Got the last Goodyear tyre from the lbs
I’d be stopping visiting the climbing wall before I started panic buying. Think of all those hands that have touched all those holds before you. Germ central right there.
couple of 10sp chains and a bottle of that mould spray
What’s the panic?
I panic bought a wide angle lens for my Nikon yesterday.
Lego
Chicken was on offer.
Amazon has cheap Gillette blades so I bought 30.
Be safe, stop buying Corona beer.
Nothing. I see as an opportunity to empty the freezer and find out what is at the back of the tins cupboard. Might even drink some of the stuff brought back from holidays
Cherry & almond tart.

Surely it hasn't got that bad yet😀
Bought 50x 3M FFP3 Masks about a month ago.. looking at ebay prices i could make about 10x what i paid for them and buy a new bike. Bought some extra beans and 48 pack of toilet roll. Im prepared.
I only went to get a carrot
But I bought two carrots, two lemons and a packet of rosemary and garlic bready crisp things.
For cryin' out loud, thank goodness that so far you're in the minority on here.
I think I have Erdinger Virus after panic buying that at the pub last night. That last orders bell gets me every time.
I've heard a rumour that riding a new fairly lightweight carbon fibre full Susser with the new 12 speed XT setup gives you extra resistance to Covid, so I'm sorely tempted.
If you people could help spread this rumour so the missus heard about it that would be much appreciated.
Been stockpiling on bikes since the last panic.
Gin cupboards are full.
Camper is always ready to go
Would need a bit more info on the carbon bike before spreading any rumours. XT ? 😉
why am I panicking?
@scaredypants oh i see! It's to counter the effects once you hermetically seal the house against lurgy.
Been panic buying electric to charge up two ebikes as the thought of having to ride with all those people that can't afford to buy an ebike is just to much to bear.
Apart from that nothing as our stock pile of tyres and brake pads will possibly last for longer than humanity.
3 XTR bbs because I'm shit with online ordering.
For some reason I couldn’t get any masks for spraying the living room.
Oh, and shit bags for the dogs.
not exactly "panic" buying but we've manage to collect four 1 kilo bags of espresso coffee beans from lidl @ £8 a bag (it's part of their italian season and it's rather nice coffee)
Crate of Corona for me. Not tried it before and discovered I quite like it so may get another
Don't need to panic buy, got my Brexit bunker in case of covid-aggedon. Although I was supposed to be in Singapore on Tuesday....
I bought a new Townes Van Zandtcd just need some more codiene and then I can..
Crate of Corona for me
Virus in a bottle right there.
I got 8 sets of XT and 8 sets of SRAM Code pads during the last Uberbike sale.
If the world burns and society crumbles, at least I'll be able to slow my bike down through the virus ridden wastelands for a few years.

Well it's an Orbea, obviously. Spanish Flu and all that. Natural immunity.
Although I'm still tempted by one of those Speccy Experts if I see one in my size. Clearly not Spanish, but I'm sure it'll have the same effect as long as I get the right colour.
We always buy bog roll at Costco, just bought another pack of 45 rolls.
Got some rennies too
Might even drink some of the stuff brought back from holidays
Don't do it. Due to no vodka in the house I made some Ouzo jelly for a party. The fridge stunk for a fortnight 🤮
Panic Buying, watcha got?
5 litre of sunflower oil for £3.50 from Tesco.
3 bottles of Czech larger from Co-op at £1.20/bottle of 500ml.
4 spark plugs
1 heat gun
12 bottles of summer lightning
2 fence posts
1 fence panel
I'm worried now as we only have 3 bog rolls in and no rice or pasta 😱
I have just ordered a few sets of brake pads though 😁
I bought the Mickey Baker guitar book which optimistically should last me 10 years or so. Given the current penchant for panic buying I also bought “book2”.
.
Shotgun cartridges, petrol, tripwires and pull-pin detonators. If things are going to go downhill, may as well do it properly 😂

I bought them in the 70s. Still not finished learning or applying the knowledge within.
Packet of Jelly Tots, some Thai Sweet Chilli Sensations and filled the fuel tank on the car.
Oh and packet of Sharpies, dunno why as I already have 20-odd of the things but they were on sale as a damaged pack.
2 tubs of houmus for the price
of 1.5. Thanks Coop.
Two sets of brake pads. I only needed one...
A vw touran mainly because the Passat is about to scatter it's gearbox/dmf/clutch all over the place. Just has to get me 20miles to the garage on Wednesday.
I brought some reconditioned face masks on eBay real cheap, only gonna take 14 days to arrive from China.
Patagonia stuff mostly.
Okay, maybe not panic buying, definitely stocking up for the apocalypse though...
Xt Di2 groupset.
On local classifieds for 300 euros with cables, junctions boxes, battery, charger.
Not sure it is a good idea on a Rallon but always wanted it.
Valentine's day was two weeks ago?!
Mr Pea is a plumber and heating engineer so sometimes needs to use a dust mask... when he tried to buy a couple last week, it turns out people have been panic buying them in packs of 50. I’m not sure a dust mask will even protect you from a virus?
The shelves of antibacterial soap in our Sainsbury's were stripped bare yesterday, but I never buy antibacterial soap on principle.
A whyte 203 for the boy and a tumble drier.
random panic overall but good
Peanuts and tinfoil. Lots of peanuts and tinfoil.
Four tubes of Cadbury Mini Eggs and coffee pod refill. Now able to weather any coronapolalypse.
not exactly “panic” buying but we’ve manage to collect four 1 kilo bags of espresso coffee beans from lidl @ £8 a bag (it’s part of their italian season and it’s rather nice coffee)
I better skip up an grab some,they’re not bad at all, although probably not fartisan enough for ahem some stw’ers 🙂
The pasta aisle was a bit empty yesterday at my local supermarket in Munich.
Not many deliveries from Italy getting through.
I bought some Italian salami, a few bottles of red.
Was vomitting Friday night & Saturday morning, so definitely need to buy a Leatherman Squirt PS multitool right now.
Accessories for the turbo (tyre, sweat guard, HRM and zwift)
Figure if I won’t be allowed to go outside, at least I can still ride...
Was in Lidl just now and felt the panic. So bought tomatoes and kale. Don’t really like kale, but you never know eh.
Chicken fillets. 5 instead of the normal 3
Going to get a load of paint and decorating stuff in.. If we have to self isolate at least we can get on with the decorating.. (Not just an excuse to buy face masks without looking like I'm a prepper)
2 boxes of cat food, some laundry detergent, washing up liquid and 3 (yes 3!) blocks of butter. I had a £4 off £40 voucher from Sainsbury's.
Salted caramel cheesecake reduced to £1.80 in M&S only 2 left but there was loads of pasta.
Plenty pasta in Tesco's Dingwall. I only got one bag (did however chuck in a couple extra tins of chickpeas and chopped tomatoes, oh and some new soy sauce, you know just in case ...).
A pear tree from Aldi.
Debating a makita battery chainsaw. With the 6aH batteries it should allow me to hold off the hordes for a short while

2 packets of Lemsip

I'm just planning to make inroads in the 4kg of self raising flour we appear to have accumulated.
Drop scones everyday. It'll be ace.
I'm waiting for the Uber sale to get my pads - just down to 1 spare set for the missus MTB, and just a pair for mine.
I won't be panic buying anything else.
Some nice chedder with mango and Stilton, crisps and nuts, beans tuna plus bag of flower
If it gets really bad I shall borrow couple of hundred gallons of beer from work and spend a few weeks sitting the beach getting smashed.
The only advantage to living on an island shithole is the 1 road bridge on and off which I am assured will be blown to smithereens once the expected pandemic reaches Portsmouth hopefully be warm enough for windsurfing by then
Done all my necessary panic buying yesterday, 5 bags of Kimchi, 4 boxes local eggs (usually double yolks), large chunk of Loch Arthur Chedder, two pots double cream, coriander and chillies....that's scrambled eggs for breakfast/lunch for the next 10 days sorted.
Actually thats no different to my usual shopping trip so meh...
Almost. Out. Of. Booze!!!!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhh
Your fridge looks a bit different to mine...
Very wise to isolate the coronavirus beer on its own but i do see a bottle of heinz ketchup with its back turned
I've just put a bigger chunk than normal into my S&S isa. I may even go totally mad and move another big chunk of cash savings in too in a couple of days.
Oh also bought two bottles of red from aldi.
Good times!
I may panic buy some more of Aldis rhubarb and custard hot cross buns - so wrong they are so right!
@mattbee that is genius
I picked up a cordless disc cutter they other day. I'm quite please with it although the dust guard doesn't work properly (I've contacted the manufacturer so fingers crossed).
