Lidl shoppers have been hit with a limit on how many boxes of eggs they can purchase when they are at the supermarket following reports of a shortage.
The budget supermarket chain has implemented notices in stores to alert customers. It is rationing eggs to three boxes per person. Aldi shoppers have noticed a shortage on eggs on its Click and Collect service, reports The Manchester Evening News.
It comes as multiple retailers and supermarkets across the country have been hit with a shortage as a knock-on effect following the current Avian flu epidemic and the summer heatwave.
