Previously shoppers had only been able to buy three of any item as Asda tried to make sure it had enough of essential products to go around.

Meanwhile, Morrisons said it had upped limits on some items from three to four per customer.

It has also removed limits on some products altogether to make it easier for people to donate to food banks.

The supermarket has set up donation hubs in its in-store cafes, which are currently closed, where donations for food banks will be collected.

Morrisons said a number of its lines had remained unrestricted throughout the crisis.

The two supermarkets follow Aldi, which also lifted its shopping limits yesterday.

Supermarkets have struggled in recent weeks to keep up with soaring demand for items such as toilet roll, pasta, rice and cleaning supplies.

Most have set limits on the number of products customers can buy, including for online shops.

Sainsbury's has restricted shoppers to a maximum of three of any of the same grocery item – and just two of the most in-demand products, such as toilet paper, soap and UHT milk.

Tesco customers also face a three-item limit applied to all products, with a one-item maximum imposed on some of the most in-demand products in smaller Express stores.

If you are shopping online with Tesco, you cannot order more than 80 products.
