Panic-buying matron

THE EAR - The Freeman
December 5, 2014 | 12:00am

MATRON. One matron who was filling her cart with canned goods at a supermarket in connection with the coming of Hagupit/Ruby struck a conversation with another shopper.

 

PANIC BUYING. "I am buying foodstuff that I normally would buy only when there really is a need for it such as milk in cans. But since there is a typhoon coming, I am stocking up," she told the other shopper.

 

PAG-ASA. "If the typhoon doesn't come, I would throw all these canned milk at Pag-asa's face," she said.
