They had ration books which had coupons in. Every time they wanted to buy something they had to had their book to the shop keeper and they would cross of the coupons which they were using. After they had finished their book they had to go to a person and they would check if they had finished up all of the tokens and if they had then they would give them another book. After the war had ended rationing still had to happen because it took them a little while before they had got all the food back. I hope that answers your Question :D .
