Sainsbury’s chief executive Mike Coupe said: “We have been working hard with our suppliers to improve our product availability.

“Most people are now just buying what they need for themselves and their families.

“This means we now often have stock on the shelves all day and at the end of the day.

“People have been queuing to get into our stores when they open in the mornings, but customers are now finding they can shop at any time of the day and feel confident in finding most of what they need.

“As stock continues to build, we have been reviewing whether we still need to limit the number of items people buy.

“I am pleased to tell you that we will start to remove limits from Sunday.

“Limits will remain in place on the most popular items which include UHT milk, pasta and tinned tomatoes.
