Some of the country's leading supermarkets have ramped-up rationing to prevent a repeat of the panic-buying which caused chaos at the start of the pandemic.
Shoppers continued to stockpile this weekend following the Government's announcement of new lockdown measures.
Pictures of bare shelves have circulated on social media - with images of trolleys packed full of essentials causing outrage.
Tesco has reintroduced purchase limits on items including toilet roll, dried pasta and flour.
Rice and canned vegetables can also now not be mass bought.
While three is the common limit, some branches will even only allow customers to buy one of each to try and maintain stock levels. One Tesco store in Cambridgeshire will allow one pack of toilet paper per person - a stance backed online.
Rival supermarket Morrisons became the first big grocer to bring back rationing last week, announcing purchasing limits on a raft of cleaning products.
Fears began to grow after the return of bare shelves which gave people an unwelcome reminder of last March when the country was plunged into lockdown.

Dont people know that canned goods, pasta and toilet roll carry a new type of HIV that's super infectious. One wipe with AIDSy loo roll and you'll be dead in a second.

tomcatty: I hope you your daughter and grandaughter are well,
Yes, they are thankyou, as are my three grandsons and son-in-law.
It's surprising given my daughter is a public facing essential worker and the kids went back to school a few weeks ago. Colds have been caught, but as yet only I, locked up in the middle of nowhere have caught the 'rona.
I only know of one grocery shop which has closed for a deep clean due to a member of staff getting ill. No shop workers round here seem to getting the virus despite this area being so hard hit, which I find odd.
My daughter reckons none of them could have had it asymptomatically because at least one of them would have been symptomatic as it spread, but I'm wondering if the early application of 'spit screens' has played into the the 'viral load' hypothesis.
