In the case of limiting numbers of people from each household, I suspect it's to make it harder for panic buyers from the same household to go round in packs filling multiple trolleys and defeating quantity restrictions.
Ah - I hadn't thought of that (not that the good Wokingham lot would do such a thing!).

Probably to limit the number of people in the store. More people more transmission and more difficult to keep social distancing.
Yeah - but nothing's changed there. The only thing that has changed is stay at home unless you go shopping for essentials plus a few other reasons.

Chris has provided an aspect that I hadn't thought of.

Still, Waitrose have 25% off 6 bottles and their blue branded Prosecco, with its small bubbles, is one of the best I've ever tasted.
