She was gobsmacked when the cashier didn't let her buy bottles of ale and lager
A 35-year-old mum was left 'embarrassed and angry' after an Aldi cashier refused to let her buy booze. The mum-of-three was shopping with her daughters, picking up groceries and home essentials.
When a manager backed up the cashier’s decision, Kelly, who lives in Preston, said was eventually banned from returning to the store. She has since complained to Aldi’s head office which has said that the action taken in store was correct. “I said ‘these two are my children, they don’t have ID’,” Kelly explained. “They’re not doing any shopping today, they’re just with me.”
“At that point he said ‘get out, you’re barred.” Kelly, who owns a salon in Leyland, said she has not been back to the store since but has been to the Chorley branch without similar problems. She also says her husband has been shopping with the children without any issues when buying alcohol.
