Elaine Carmody, 24, a full-time mother of two young boys, described the ban as "ridiculous" and "pathetic".

She said she had regularly gone shopping at the store in her pyjamas until about a week ago when she was turned away when she went to buy cigarettes.

She said she been "popping in for a pack of fags," but if she had been doing a full shop "then we obviously would have gone in clothed".

"But we only wanted fags and they still refused us to go in for a pack of cigarettes," she added.

Ms Carmody, who spoke after spending £102 in the supermarket, added: "If you're allowed to wear jogging bottoms, why aren't you allowed to wear pyjamas in there, that's what I don't understand?

"I think it's stupid really not being allowed in the supermarket with pyjamas on.

"It's not as if they're going to fall down or anything like that. They should be happy because you're going to spend all that money."

She went on: "It's not as if you're making a show, if anything they should be happy because you're spending your money in their shop, but obviously they're not because you're not allowed in with pyjamas.

  • Crocs should defiantly be banned, not just tesco but public. Is that a better way to tell everyone you are on the social?

    Probably bra and suspenders, and fishnet tights. :(

    Seriously though, what is it with folk wandering about in their PJs? It seems to be everywherre. Are they just too lazy to get dressed?

    I'm no fan of Tescos, but well done them.

    I've been out in my PJ bottoms once or twice. And yes, it's mostly due to laziness/sickness. But I didn't think anyone at the garage would notice.

    funny though....10 years ago people thought nothing of popping to the newsagents on a sunday in their slippers and dressing gown......

    seems the more rural, the more prevailent the ole pj shopping thing is.....havn't seen it since moving to within the city limits.....

    :shock: I cant recall ever being out doors in such inappropriate attire in my life :lol: . I wear tatty old jogging bottoms & t shirts at home. If Im popping out even for a newspaper I will change, I remember putting on cargo pants and realising that I HAD to put white trainers on as black ones would clash & I would look fecking stupid :oops: :roll:

    its their shop they can pick and choose as they like. as people with wellington boots sh1t up to the nines and smelling like a dung heap. not good around foodstuff.
  • Talk about pot-kettle-black. There's people here criticising others for being too lazy to change out of their PJs when they themselves are too bone idle to capitalise their sentences properly. Priceless.
    I may be a minority of one but that doesn't prevent me from being right.

    They have to wash their shell-suits occasionally. :wink:

  • You should try Stockton/Middlesbrough. Apparently no one gets dressed properly once they get out of bed nowadays.

    All I can say is:

    "Have you seen the clip of that bint".
    "A cyclist has nothing to lose but his chain"

    There are a few gems in the 'comments'
    Tesco are quite within their rights to do this.. I have no real issue with the way anyone dresses, but going to the shops in your pyjamas is dreadful in my opinion.A local school is also insisting that the parents refrain from wearing pyjamas whilst bringing their childres to school... and to leave the can of lager at home when collecting them too.Well done Tesco, !

    To be fair it does not even take a second to press that capital lock then press T, then press the capital lock again. Even better, when you do it enough times you don't even realise you're doing it.

    Also, on a topic related note, ST. Mellons? Someone taking the piss? What a weird name. Where does one find ST. Lemons?
  • I'm quite suprised this has happened in Saint Mellons, it's such a lovely place!!!

    I remember walking home from Cardiff to Risca one night (stupid idea at the time - its about 18 miles) and when going through Saint Mellons a nicked car ploughed into a wall literally 50 yards away from me and all 3 in the car starbursting. Like an idiot I start running and realise, crap the old bill will think I did it so carried on walking. I thought I was going to get ass raped that night!
