In my day, 'panic buying' only happened when the bell rang and the barman shouted "last orders at the bar"

I'v been panic buying chocolate, like Hopkirk but I just cant get the hang of stockpiling it.

Panic buying is when you're trying to get rid of a double glazing salesman, after a 3 hour presentation

Due to panic buying, Aldi have opened till number 3!

I can remember the 70s, running out to grab a loaf when shops had bread in, no candles during the power cuts. Empty shelves during the strikes and power cuts loo rolls were in short supply them but everyone had newspapers.
