Please don't read the Daily Mail. They're notorious for scaremongering and it's not a reliable source. ❤

Are forecourts in the UK busy? I refused to be part of that the last few times even though I ran out and had to cancel things. I'm almost out and can see myself being part of the problem if it happens again 🤦‍♀️
My local Tesco petrol station was rammed at lunchtime. As soon as I heard rising fuel and energy prices, I knew they'd be panic buyers.

Jeeps that is really scary -

I was just thinking if we were invaded / were under attack I would not have a clue what to do or where to go and would probably just end up sitting in my home watching a box set 😀. the proverbial ostrich I suppose

I cannot begin to imagine how frightened the population are not knowing what to do for the best it is truly heartbreaking 💔
I've got some kitchen knives and a baseball bat we are a bit fucked in the UK aren't we 🤣🤣

Please people don’t start with panic buying it just puts prices up and is super unnecessary

I filled up my car Tuesday and there’s absolutely no reason for me to top up until I’m near empty. There’s just no need. I hope the media especially the DM don’t scaremonger again.

All it'll take is a couple of front pages of empty shelves (bonus points if you can tell they're clearly from previous seasons by the clothing being worn) and people'll go and do it.

If I'm panic buying anything it's going to be wine 😅

I think we are far too selfish to fight a war if we are invaded. We panic buy over anything remember the bog roll ?!! Very selfish country now.

We'll have to resort to Gary Barlow's wine, desperate times call for desperate measures!

I'm getting to the stage where mine will need filled up shortly. I was planning on using the car a lot at the weekend so was considering filling up early but I don't want to be seen as panic buying.

ITV are reporting fuel could go up to £1.55 a litre and starting a panic. It’s the bog roll saga all over again.

Fuel here was already at € 2,06 in towns and € 2,20 a litre next to the highways. I'm super scared to see the prices increasing even more because of this 😢

Never! I'd rather drink the juice from value vacuum packed beetroot mixed with value vodka and tap water.
