I drink more coffee but love a tea in morning and in evenings I'll have to pick a box up in case.

These shortages are self fulfilling already seeing photos of empty shelves where tea would be.2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡

I heard it was only one specific supermarket chain that was going to have possible supply issues?
I'm guessing people will be trying to sell all their extra tea on Ebay, like the loo rolls.Albus (he/him)

I hadn't seen or heard about this but isn't something that really impacts me as a I don't really drink tea. What's the distruption to trade routes caused by @woodbine??
-
I dashed out in a panic to buy tea today because I've changed my mind about the peanut butter - it's tea

O my goodness. I probably drink more tea than anyone. I have x3 mugs made at once with my morning meds. I constantly drink tea one after other. It’s the only thing I drink. Just the cheapest I can get. And one cup of peppermint tea a day.
I’m nearly out but can’t buy any more until Tuesday.

Oh that will be the family coming to me then (tiny bit of a hoarder of toilet paper and tea lol) but the joke will be on them cus i have lots of fruit flavors and green teas
