With the legislation I quoted, I'm not convinced it's a definitive solution but if you're going to put a restriction on the number of items that can be bought, you are supposed to put signage up making that clear to customers at the point of sale. Under the legislation I cited, there is an argument (albeit a stretched argument) for saying it could be a misleading omission and as such potentially a matter for Trading Standards. As always YMMV.
