Loo roll etc. - good idea from Sweden!

The Swedes always seem so practical and organised. I was amazed to find not one scrap of litter over there. I do like the idea (in theory) but it's probably unworkable.

I prefer a set limit to quantity allowed. OK, the determined can enter the shop again to get more - but that's an effort.

In the Mail last week a chap had made £3,000 in no time after " over-buying " toilet rolls and selling them at £15 per pack !

Good idea, except in the case of something I witnessed last week. A man loaded up the boot of his car and then picked up some bags and went back into the supermarket

Swedish friend tells me that some local shops are charging normal price for first pack of loo roll - but are whacking the price right up for any 2nd pack.

Ditto some shops with hand sanitiser - about 10 times more for any more than one.
