Tesco - How stupid can they get?

From the Daily Torygraph:

Claire Birchell, 25, was told she could not buy the Jack Daniel's barbecue sauce which has an alcohol content of 2 per cent. Staff at the store in in Flitwick, near Bedford also refused to sell the bottle to her brother-in-law, Philip Dover, 27, who did have ID, because they believed he would just give the bottle to Miss Birchell.


Mr Dover said: 'We just could not believe it. It's not as if we were going to go and sit down the park drinking it.

Full article here. If they did that to me, the checkout monkey would end up wearing the barbecue sauce.

PMSL!!! how can they be sooooooooo stupid!!

The law says that if you leave a shop without making any attempt to pay for your goods then its theft.
However when i get stroppy shop staff i clearly tell them that i'm attempting to pay for my goods and if they dont want my money then i'll happily take the goods for free and start walking to the door. They quickly want the money then...or they call security who just give then filthy looks for wasting their time (like i used to)Worst comes to the worst i've been known to litteraly throw the money on the floor for them to pick up and walk away...hey if they wanna be rude and obnoxious then 2 can play that game and the customer is always right, right
