Biggest supermarket in the UK.
Alcohol Nazis.
I roll in at 6am, as you do, after I left my brother off at the airport. Thought I'd just have a wee mull around, see what there is. Picked up some pain au chocolat for breakfast and a newspaper to read with it. Then I think "Huh while I'm here I'll pick up some beer seeing as I'm home for the holidays and don't have any in the house at the moment." thus I then go to the alcohol section, walk by all these people unpacking deliveries etc. I then stroll out of the alcohol section with my pain au chocolat, my broadsheet and my 10 bottles of Bud, get half way to the self-service checkouts when this chap comes running up behind me looking like he's about to have a heart attack at what he's seeing. "Excuse me...excuse me....excuse me! You can't buy that." At first I thought he must of thought I was underage or something - being 6ft 4" and 16.5st with broad shoulders I get that a lot. "You can't buy that.....It's too early." All the while giving me looks of 'What the **** do you think you're doing?!' and surprise and how I dared buy beer at this time. He clearly thought I was some alco. But anyways, I simply replied "Oh. Sorry, sorry I didn't realise you couldn't buy beer at this time." But seriously, I mean who the **** stops someone buying products at whatever time of the day?! I only wanted it for the holiday season for ****s sake and because I was there so it was convenient to get it then. I might not be at another shop for days!
