Shoppers have been described as going "crazy" for a soft drink with a queue forming outside a city supermarket early on Thursday morning.
The hydration drink Prime released by YouTubers Logan Paul and rapper KSI, which has gone viral, is on sale at Aldi for a limited time.
A staff member at the Botley Road Aldi store in Oxford said: "The drinks sold out in under five minutes.
"There was a queue outside the door before 8am and people were running in when the doors opened."
He described the scenes as "crazy".
Stores nationwide have reported "absolute chaos" with hundreds of people queuing to get their hands on the £2 bottles and even scuffles breaking out between shoppers.
