I don?t know about that,the way some people were stashing trolleys just in case shops never opened again after the recent celebration of consumer spending appears to indicate that many do ,attracted by the many offers that are available. And in a DIY context there must be many a person who attracted by the relatively low cost of something like a welder in the centre section of Lidl have purchased one despite having no requirement or skill to use it but it seemed a good idea at the time. The desire to hoard is stronger and more widespread than may be apparent, emptying the premises of someone like that often reveals many unused /unopened items and can be another symptom of age related illnesses.
