If I was renting I'd be tempted to put the money aside in case things get scarce/inflationary. I'd rather buy food and have rent arrears than pay the rent and starve. It's not like there are a lot of places to spend the money at the moment, so it's probably not going to be spent elsewhere.
Would be a good time to put some pressure on these landlords - let them feel the risk of their investment and pay their own mortgage.
