H-E-B has once again placed purchase limits on certain items in their stores.

Our partners at News 10 report that as of Saturday, August 22, H-E-B had updated and implemented a temporary purchase limit on certain items to “ensure the best service and product availability for all customers.”

The store says it will continue to restock shelves daily and has a strong supply chain.

The items that H-E-B is putting a purchase limit on per shopping trip/transaction and applies to all stores:

· Brisket – Limit 2

Non-food items 

· Disinfecting & antibacterial sprays – Limit 2

· Disinfecting & antibacterial wipes – Limit 2

· Hydrogen peroxide – Limit 2

· Rubbing (Isopropyl) Alcohol/swabs – Limit 2

· First Aid and Cleaning Gloves – Limit 2

Obviously purchase limits aren't ideal, but the hope is that more people will be able to get their hands on these items before the vultures swoop in to buy them all up and hoard them.

H-E-B has also announced new temporary operating hours at its stores across Texas.

Most stores will be open 6 a.m. and close at 11 p.m. and those new operating hours started as of Monday, August 24.

H-E-B is still asking that customers wear masks in their stores to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Most people have done a great job of helping with this, and we sincerely thank you for that.

They also offer home delivery and curbside pick-up, so consider those options if you're not comfortable going into the store or you're sick.
