COVID-19 How to keep well stocked without panic buying

Our local Woollies (and expect Coles and other supermarket employees are the same) said that she was abused regular throughout the day from customers due to the purchasing limitation introduced by the supermarkets. We happened to be there at 10am and she said that she felt that day was going to be lucky as she was yet to be abused. She said that abuse is hurled her way usually within the first few customers.

May be we should all pull our heads in and realise that the purchase limitations are not the fault of the supermarkets or their employees, but the few in the community who irrationality have panic bought particular items spoiling it for everyone else. Finger should be pointed at these individuals rather than the supermarkets which are trying to make panic bought products available to all and sundry.
