TikTokers blasted for filling empty Prime bottles with WATER and restocking supermarket shelves in cruel prank | The Sun
TIKTOKERS have been blasted for filling empty Prime bottles with water before restocking the shelves.
In a video posted to the social media site, one lad was filmed taking the viral drink out of a rucksack.
He then places bottle after bottle back on the shelf before turning them so the logo is facing the right way.
Seemingly perfectly stacked above their £2.50 price tag, the end of the video suggests every planted drink had been bought.
The cruel prank appears to have happened in an Asda store.
The video, which has over 300,000 views, has left users raging.

The drink's popularity grew after YouTube stars Logan Paul and KSI promoted the drink around high-profile celebrity boxing bouts in the UK.
With thousands queueing to get their hands on the hydration drink, some shops have decided to sell it for nearly £10.
The drink is so hot among youngsters that some desperate parents have travelled more than 500 miles just to get their hands on a bottle.
KSI previously slammed Asda for their resale price of £2.50.
“I don’t like the resale.
"I hate the reselling so like even when Asda tried to up their prices to £2.50, I was tweeting them like 'No, no, no. This is out of order. This isn’t Prime doing this. This is Asda'.
"And instantly they brought it back down to £2.”
During a live stream, the pair said they wanted to "rival the biggest companies on earth" with their products – including "Pepsi, Coke, Gatorade and Powerade".
The drinks are selling in 11 flavours – including blue raspberry, tropical punch and grape.
