Sheena well Kate the biggest thing
0:17
Shoppers might notice is that some
0:19
shelves right now are pretty empty but
0:22
walking around the different stores it's
0:24
pretty specific for example you might
0:26
notice a lot of produce fruits and veg
0:30
jez the shelves are bare right now and
0:32
some poultry as well no chicken and
0:35
walking around this specific Stop and
0:37
Shop we also noticed that a digital
0:39
scale wasn't working and you'll see
0:42
these signs posted up inside the store
0:44
explaining the situation and some
0:47
Shoppers we spoke to certainly noticed
0:50
but didn't have any like you know I

because it is so specific some people
1:12
really had no idea that there was an
