The picture was put on one of the local Facebook pages and shortly after some locals apparently smashed his Mercedes up. I like the Vigilante types.

Gaz FFC Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I've oticed a trend developing. When I finish work and visit my local Tesco/Asda and ask why their is no bread/Milk I'm told it was in earlier. So in summary the great fucking sponging b*****d Unemployed/pensioners are getting loaves and milk but the working class are getting hee haw. I'm gonnae need to take a holiday from work just to buy some fucking bread. Update - Wife is off today so sent her into town and she got bread.

Marmite and cheap fish paste? Tins of Pilchards in tomato sauce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I honestly think supermarkets need to be stronger in these situations and tell c***s buying 40 pints of milk that they can buy a reasonable amount or they can f**k off. I'm more than happy to offer my services at check-outs kicking folk in the pie if they disagree with such a sensible approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'm equating beer with milk but it's the same principle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a 6 per customer limit on items, but nothing stops them getting friends or family to also buy 6 at a time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are "we"? Of course you can't stop it completely and some will find a way round it but a reasonable limit on things would stop the majority from bulk buying.

Use to but all we want is your money Morrisons have a limit of 2 when they have £15 a litre of Grouse deals, but tell you just to make separate purchases if you have more. Same till.

NJ2 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Are there laws stating how much alcohol or how many units can be purchased in one transaction? Genuine question. I have no idea. I have no idea either but thinking about being in a pub...if I wanted to buy everyone a drink and a bottle of champagne or something surely this would exceed the limit (if there even is one)? Then, it could be different for shops and pubs I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 There's no legal limit as to how much alcohol you can buy. Shops and bars are of course free to impose any limit they wish, and legally shouldn't serve you anything if you're drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was refused 4 cans of 330ml lager in Asda because they could smell drink about a year ago. I'd had two pints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're easily the worst for invoking the "Challenge 25" rule too, which I absolutely despise. Sometimes if I'm dropping in on my way home I won't have my ID with me and it's always when I get asked for ID. "I'm 29, do you think I look 17?" is my reply. "No but you look 25, take it as a compliment" is what I'm then told. Stick your compliments up your arse and give me my lager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 My hair started greying when I was 16 and I'm well over 6ft - I don't think i've ever been ID'd for alcohol in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
