We're trying to keep away from people, we're not having contact with anyone other than the daughter, SIL & grandkids, the son has even stopped visiting as he's moved in with is girl/lady friend. We use online shopping where we can but there are somethings you just have to nip out for & TBH it's cheaper to buy at places like Home Bargains. So todays idea was to nip to Morrisons to pick a few things up, then to Home Bargains, then home before everywhere gets busy.
Morrisons won't let you through the tills until 10am but allow you into the shop at 9:30, we arrived 9:40 only I went into the shop & had got the 20 items or so, soup, beans mainly & was on a self service till by 9:45 knowing full well I would have to wait until 10:00 before it opened. As I am stood there a store assistant advises me the till is not open, so I replied I'm aware & that it will open at 10:00. Then a couple of minutes later another assistant comes past & tells me it's not open, but there are 2 more which are open to NHS personnel, to which I replied I wasn't NHS so I will wait, they then said, well it's up to me but I could go through the other till if I wanted to. As they were not busy it seemed daft to wait so, I packed the items back into the trolley & walked around to the empty NHS checkout.
The lady scanned all the items & then asked for my NHS identity, to which I replied I wasn't NHS & had been told to use the till by the other assistant. She then started to lecture me about not being able to serve the public until 10am, to which I replied I knew that & wouldn't have come to the checkout had I not been advised to. In the end she said as she'd already scanned everything it would be okay, but it wasn't a good experience
