In one image, a two measly packets of large water bottles were left on an entire aisle.
A freezer compartment was left totally empty under a sign advertising ice creams.
The Mini Mix Ice Creams, priced at £2.49 a pack, have clearly gone down a treat during the heatwave so far.
Although it is cooler than some other parts of the country, Clevedon is currently facing high temperatures of 31 degrees, so the rush for ice creams and bottled water is unsurprising.
DON’T MISS
If exercising, Britons must take care to drink even more water.
As for ice cream, while it does have a temporarily cooling effect, this may not actually be the ideal heatwave snack.
The process of eating is heat generating, increasing the body’s core temperature.
Enjoying a cold drink or snack further compounds this because the body overcompensates by increasing its core temperature.
Warmer snacks and drinks may therefore be a greater bet in the next few days.
