Women Going Shopping In Tesco, In Pyjamas !

[mikey4444]

I have just returned from Tesco and while I was there, there was an altercation in the entrance. Two young women were stopped by the Security Guard, because they were wearing pajamas and dressing gowns. They complained bitterly and become abusive but left in a cloud of swear words.

Did these women really think it was OK to go shopping in public dressed like that ?

[murraymints]

have heard about but never witnessed this..not acceptable IMHO

Mikey that's so 1990s - what were they thinking?

[-Talbot-]

Well, yes of course they did!

[EcclesCake]

Obviously they did.

The security staff and you clearly have a different perspective.

People shop at our local Tesco wearing onesie's which in my opinion isn't much different to pyjamas. This has been in the papers before regarding someone shopping in their dressing gown at Tesco. I wonder what it is about Tesco mikey!

[Sipowicz]

Sleeping policemen would help put a stop to that!

I've heard there is security at Waitrose that won't let you in if you're wearing black before 8 pm or white shoes after Labor Day -and so very rightly so! ;-)

When I worked in a small corner shop one 'lady' often used to come in wearing pyjamas and slippers. She lived in one of the upstairs flats.
Her husband had a starring role in an episode of Watchdog - he was a plumber.
So, yes, some people do think it is ok, unfortunately.

during the summer, the tesco near my office doesn't allow bare-chested men into the store.

so no swooning over grass scything hunks again......

[-Talbot-]

Just the summer, mushroom?

[mikey4444]

Eccles......you misunderstand me ! The Guard and I have exactly the same perspective .

[ummmm]

Why not? They are clothes. I often see people in far worse clothing than my PJs.

I try not to be precious about what another is wearing. There must be limits but I'm unsure what they are when it comes to simply representing yourself and your taste. That said I can see a supermarket may have standards it wishes to uphold re what those visiting them look like: it would be up the Tesco in that situation.

[EcclesCake]

Have I Mikey? The two you women shared one opinion and you and the security staff shared another.......

[-Talbot-]

Eccles......you misunderstand me !



I think you have misunderstood, Eccles

[Old_Geezer]

"up to"
as I typed

although "up the" reads "interesting"

Once I collected for charity outside Tesco on a Sunday morning - and so watched the people coming in. Saw such a huge array of clothing. One woman was dressed as if she was visiting a night club. When you are going in and out doing your shopping you don't notice much, but that day I was amazed at the wide range of styles.

Perhaps Security thought the sleepers needed training!
