    ...it would make my day, since appealing to people's better nature by supermarkets regarding panic buying doesn't seem to work, they did the following......

    Have a special queue/till for people who have excessive amounts of one product i.e. make it the only till they can go to. Capture a still photo of them from the CCTV of them as they exit and have a 'wall of shame' to place the pictures on. I dare say privacy laws would prevent that happening.

    And greed - it's not in any supermarkets interest to restrict sales of owt. No bog roll, "come back tomorrow" in the meantime buy all this other stuff you don't need.

    Sadly, there are far too few altruistic people in today's society. Instead of feeling shamed, the hoarders would probably see having their photograph published as a badge of honour. So long as they had got their supplies, they wouldn't give a stuff as to what anyone else felt or thought about them. Latest shortage in the supermarkets I understand are boxes of tissues.

    I think you have misunderstood the meaning of the word ‘altruism’.
