Run out of - to have no more of something


This morning, I wanted to have some bread toast, however, I'd run out of bread. So, I rushed out of (the) house and got into the car. I turned the key but the car didn't start - I'd run out of petrol! I ran down the road to the shop, but they'd run out of sliced bread. I decided to buy some rolls (instead). Then I realized I'd run out of money. I'm always doing it and the shopkeeper has run out of patience (with me). I came home, looked at the clock, and saw that I'd run out of time for breakfast.
