Tesco has introduced new limits on certain items following the introduction of new Government Covid-19 guidelines.

The store - which has a Tesco Extra in Ashby - says they still have plenty of stock.

But the new rations have come into place with Coronavirus reservations expected to last another six months.

Toilet roll and dried pasta are among the items to be affected.

Tesco explained today (Friday) which goods are to be limited per person.

  • In stores, there will be a three-items per customer limit for flour, dried pasta, toilet roll, baby wipes and anti-bacterial wipes.
  • There are additional limits for a small number of products online, such as rice and canned veg.
  • Face coverings are available for sale at the front of the store.

A Tesco spokesperson said: "We have good availability, with plenty of stock to go round, and we would encourage our customers to shop as normal.

"To ensure that everyone can keep buying what they need, we have introduced bulk-buy limits on a small number of products.

 

"To help our customers shop safely, we will also have colleagues at the entrances of our larger stores to remind customers about the safety measures we have in place, including the legal requirement to wear a face covering."
