Like what? I do monthly stock up for baby's essentials like baby wipes, diapers and formula. If you are talking about the hoarding behaviour due to the virus outbreak, no! That is too irresponsible. I dont think those people are stocking up for their own use, they are opportunists looking to resell the items at high prices. Those people are selfish jerks who only wanna capitalise on others not bothering about the consequences they will bring. For example, the stage 1 formulas are oos everywhere whereas stages 2,3 ,4 are available. They planning to starve the newborns?

I guess every household has a different definition of what is essential. I don’t buy instant noodles and canned food to begin with because my LO can’t eat that. But I think it’s prudent to just buy what I need. I still rely mostly on fresh produce. And Singapore’s not shutting down, so there’s no need to stock up

Dont... people are buying up all the formula milk too.. can u imagine a new mum needs to buy formula milk for her newborn due to low breastmilk supply. But when reach supermarket, there are none or limited choices which may not be suitable for her bb, how stress and depress she will be.

No even to an extend I need meat for my confinement meals for the next few days as the meat just ran out (only enough for today's dinner)..my husband only managed to buy a few meat after going to several supermarkets as mostly are wiped out!

No, wanted to buy for my daughter but all out of stock and it piss me off alot

Not stocking up, buying for what we need to work from home

Dont be selfish. People also still need to buy things

Nope. It's not like there's a food ration coming.
