Ice Bucket Challenge : Shop runs of ice for say

Ice bucket chanllenge has really gone out of control like wild inferno. Freezer shelves at many stores are lying empty after brave customers rushed to stock up on ice in order to take part in the Ice Bucket Challenge.

In order to raise money for a Motor Neurone Disease (MND) charity, participants have a bucket of ice cold water thrown over them within 24 hours of being nominated by a friend or family member.


But now stores in Hampshire are among many that have been drained of ice reserves following a flood of sales.

Tina McDonough, 58, a customer sales assistant at Co-operative in Portsmouth said staff had to turn people away because they ran out of ice.

"We ran out at the weekend and had to turn a few people away of all ages" said Ms McDonough.
