People like this are disgusting ... But I don't understand why the store didn't stop them ??? They could've easily limited the amount of meat purchased!

    I'm not sure how it works in Canada but does it mean that BC doesn't have provincial legislation or ordinance to limit how much people can buy?

    Generally speaking no, but under the current circumstances I don't see any reason that such a thing couldn't be temporarily imposed.  Stores can always set per customer limits as well, but evidently neither of these things were in place this time, surprisingly.

    For now it's at the store discretion, I know some Costcos have cops in the TP section and they limit the purchase of certain items.

     

    Not sure how other stores are dealing with this as I haven't been to any stores since it started.

    It'd be a real shame if their freezer broke...

    If me and my girlfriend had done this two months ago nobody would say a bloody word.

    Wow ... He's really thick! Of course nobody would've said anything since there were no shortages!!!!

    We're getting crucified for buying two carts of meat. We might have gone overboard, but we didn't push people or laugh at anyone.

    Except, that's exactly what they did! 🤦‍♂️

    Nice, a friend told me his Costco had put up signs saying there are no refunds on TP, tissues, wipes and hand sanitizer.

     

    Thanks Costco, for keeping it real and making sure people are accountable for their stupidity!!

    Staff could have enforced it at the register by turning them back, telling them to replace the meat and take respectable amount. That meat will do nothing but go bad. What a waste.

    Discusting.

    ok now that we've had a month to cool down from this anger and no one thought to make this joke yet:

     

    He's stocking up so he can beat lots of meat in quarantine...
