That's cause IGA is the most expensive place to get stuff, the last place to shop kinda thing.

oh how my mates laughed when i applied for my concession card.
they wouldn't be laughing this morning as i waltzed past the long line of needy fuckers waiting for the 8am opening at coles.
i told myself that the coles security asked for my card because he didn't think i looked old enough (no laughing at the back please)
how i laughed as i grabbed one of the last 6 packets of dunny roll, filled my trolley with rice, pasta, hand wash, bleach etc.
i tried in vain to control the smirk as the aforementioned needy fuckers raced past me and the 2 x police officers at 08:01am to fight over the remaining 5 packets.
when will these needy fuckers learn?
PS does anybody know any good carpenters, the shelves in my pantry have collapsed

Maybe you could prop up the shelves in your pantry with rolls of dunny paper mate?

Not all. The bigger IGA stores are fairly competitive. Especially with the price gouging Coles and Woolworths are doing at the moment.
Think things might be changing. I've been to three supermarkets this week and had no issues. Seems the only stores with stock issues are the stores in large shopping centres. Stand alones are ok.

Shoppers who queued for 45 minutes for a Coles to open in Sydney have been left empty handed as there was no toilet paper or tissues in stock.

How many of those needed to leave that line to take a shit or pee .... Irony at its finest!

Is this WA’s new toilet paper?
Forget pasta and toilet roll, stores are being stripped bare of another isolation essential.

What about when Costco opened ppl waited in line since 12midnight, and I bet there are no toilets around there with TP in them. LoL.

I have been told that a lot of the problems with Coles, Woolies, IGA and Aldi not having enough stock is that most stores have a curfew, that is , no deliveries after a certain time. The Premier has ordered that to catch up with restocking the stores, that the curfews are to be ignored for the time being. Hopefully this, and the changes in opening hours will help get enough stick into the stores.

100% correct. They need to bring on more trucks and drivers and remove curfews and things should ease..

Even then there is the backlog at the DCs. I have friends who go south to do the Coles stores and they were all running about 10 hours late.

Trucks a threat to local supply chains? – DW – 03/19/2020
Trucks are clogging up highways in Eastern Germany as they wait for border checks that Poland introduced at the weekend as COVID-19 spreads. Some local suppliers find it hard to do their job, as Hardy Graupner reports.

Maybe or maybe not depending on how many deliveries truckies can do now that curfews have been lifted...
Bunnings sells toilet rolls.

Brother works in a distribution centre, they places orders in for these essentials and get very little of it in, many stores don't even receive any of it, what little is placed on the shelf is gone within the day. The problem will be over once you walk into your local shop day after day after day and see these essentials are their and these sections aren't empty

What can you do utter greed, its happened all thought-out history and will continue to. Large portion of the population and my friends are doing the right things, these others need to get off their asses and stop placing their faces in front of their tv, phones watching main street media controlling their decisions and making the situation worse, hopefully one day these people will be able to civilise themselves
