A really good way with rationing. This came via my weekly email from Scandi Kitchen …

Seen at a store in Denmark …

A supermarket in Denmark got tired of people hoarding hand sanitizer, so came up with their own way of stopping it.

1 bottle kr40 (€5.50)
2 bottles kr1000 (€134.00) each bottle.

Hoarding stopped!

They could actually do something similar here but if you buy more than 2/3 items they increase the unit cost.
A surge price like Uber does when demand outstrips supply.
If they still buy the items the profits go to charity/staff
