Customers are continuing to turn up to supermarkets to find eggs out of stock, while some branches are limiting sales. As reported by the Mirror, Asda is only letting customers buy two boxes of eggs each.
And in one Lidl branch, a ration of three egg boxes per customers has been put in place. It comes as many retailers across the country have been hit with a shortage as a knock-on effect of avian flu, the summer heatwave and rising costs for egg farmers.
Grocery Insight CEO Steve Dresser shared a picture of a ration notice sign in Lidl which read: "Eggs are limited to three units per customer to ensure that everyone has the essentials they need." Similar notices about shortages have been seen at the likes of Sainsbury's and Tesco.
