Are you going to Stockpile ahead of Brexit?

mullinr2 · 2019-02-21 12:25:04

Anyone going to Stockpile non perishable items ahead of a no deal brexit? I'm talking about the likes of cereal, tinned food, your favorite Old del Paso pack, washing powder etc. They will all go up in price. May as well buy them now

Most people expect Brexit to lead to price rises for food and drink
1000 survey respondents:
around a quarter of respondents expect rents to rise
majority expect Brexit to lead to an economic decline in the North
62% expecting an increase in food and drink prices
45% expect an increase in crime

Id guess if brexit happens small retailers will still use it as excuse to hike some prices straight away, reality is Ireland has been preparing more then UK did in last years overall, most major importers increased their warehouse storage to 3-4 weeks worth.

dont expect massive shortage in bread and some other daily stuff, but if it happens there could be few delays in between, but even at that id imagine there will be some grace period to continue trade until alternative providers are sourced, as far as essentials go.

It won’t be the small retailers, the big lads will do it with gusto!
