The discount retailer explained it has good stock levels and shoppers should only buy what they need.

However, restrictions could be put in place if necessary and that can be decided by store managers.

A spokesperson commented: “We want to reassure our customers that we are not currently experiencing any product shortages and have good availability in our stores.

“We hope all customers remain mindful of others when shopping with us to ensure everyone continues to have access to the products they need.

“Nonetheless, it is at our store managers discretion, should customers start to bulk-buy, to limit the purchasing of specific items at that store.”
