Being barked at to take my helmet off before I go to the checkout in Lidls.

A please would have been nice instead of the scowl I got - I decided to not buy what I was in for and left...

LOL

Most armed robbers come in and demand the money straight away, and arrive with at least one mate :smt066 :smt066

I understand their policy, but doesn't hurt to say please. Not everyone wearing a crash helmet is an armed robber, especially when you've been wandering round the aisles and decided to buy something. :smt098 :plod:


I would have done the same as you

I'm glad someone else sees my point. Served in the same branch a couple of weeks ago with no problem, no notices up and no consistency in their policies.

I've only been refused once in 14yrs and I'd already got the fuel, they refused to accept payment for it, until I pointed out the CCTV would show me attempting to pay so if I walked out then no offence (theft) had been committed. The senior person who arrived was apologetic and accepted the payment with enthusiasm.

Funnily(while out cycling years later) a staff member in the same garage asked me if I had any fuel, "No mate just this mars bar" his colleagues were highly amused :D

Your face is far more visible in a helmet than one of those burkas, especially the ones with the full mesh flyscreen doo-dah thing
