I've decided to collect all the #brexitbenefits I observe in one thread, so it's easier to find them.
So here you have Tesco in Oban right now:
This was KFC in Cambuslang yesterday
This was, I think Lidl shettleston couple of days back:
And that was another Lidl earlier this day:
That was Tesco in Wick last sunday
And that's last week only.
I will update this thread with new #brexitbenefits everytime I see some, feel free to join in!

Lidl Rutherglen just now.
Morrisons cambuslang now.
Asda Blantyre now
Forgot to take pics in Lidl today but:
- barely any tomatoes
- little salad
- mushrooms all brown and just day before use-by date
- flowers whitering.
- one avocado left
- no yoghurt at all, some other dairy products low.
I am in Tesco shettleston at the moment. Seems that it's no longer food only anymore....
Oh, we have shelf cardboard fillers here already!
And where shelves are not empty yet, the goods are carefully spread thinly across them...
Tesco silverburn yesterday. I know it was sunday evening but this is Tesco I did my shopping for over a decade when I lived in southside,.including Sunday nights, bank holidays etc, and I NEVER seen it so bad.
I am in Poland now. This local corner shop has more fresh fruit and veg than any of the British supermarket I've been to in recent weeks
Look, I found a supermarket with plenty of fresh food!
Alas, it's not in Glasgow but in Wrocław, Poland :/
I am back in Scotland now. Tesco dalmarnock is havi g empty shelves despite being refurbished and about the third of the shop floor being out of use:
Coop Malaig now. Not so bad, bit they had no mineral water AT ALL.
Not too big choice of wine too, but at least it's 12 pence cheaper on the bottle (or whatever that Brexit benefit is)
:-)
I had to visit three local shops today before I managed to find mushrooms. I grabbed the last box of them.
The positive thing is that they were fresh - it's first time in months that I got mushrooms that are not already starting to brown in months (my visit to Poland excluded).
So how are things going in Tesco shettleston then? Apparently it's no longer only food items that are spread thin
Although the choice of food still could be better
If there is shortage of irn bru in Scotland then you know something is bruin on! :-) but if you rather have gin and tonic than you might have to reconsider. At least there is still some choice of wine (and it's cheaper by 12 pper bottle or sth, or so I heard from @johnredwood )
And it is business as usual at the veggie aisles. BREXIT usual, I mean. It's our new normal, we should get accustomed to it.
No HGV diesel at all at Lomond Gate services in Dumbarton
No change in my local Tesco, but at least they had fuel :-)
Well, there is no shortage of SPACE
And all despite the fact that large surfaces of the shops are out of use....
But there are some good news: I was able to pick up my girlfriend's bike from service. It needed amongst other things, set of new tires. They have arrived after only 20 days of waiting!
