Tesco's won't serve you in your pyjamas

Bargain_Rzl

I must say, although I wouldn't personally go to Tesco in my pyjamas (and would be quite amused if I saw someone in pyjamas at the supermarket - they don't seem to do it here!) I don't really see the issue. They're just clothes.

I could have gone to bed in yesterday's clothes, woken up and gone straight to the supermarket. How is that any better than going to the supermarket in pyjamas (in fact it's worse, cos the clothes would have been on longer)? And yet if I did that, provided that I'd had a shower the previous morning (after all, most people who normally shower daily don't become rancid as soon as they miss one shower) nobody would know, and nobody (except me) would think I was being a skanky mare

Also, a lot of clothes are designed to be "lounge wear" i.e. stuff you bum around the house in rather than just wearing for bed - some aren't much different from pyjamas. Where exactly do you draw the line?

An outfit including a cheap cotton T-shirt and trackie bottoms would be perfectly acceptable supermarket-wear, and yet a lot of (clean and respectable) people wear such clothes to bed instead of pyjamas. And again, if you saw them in the supermarket you wouldn't be able to tell if they'd been to bed in the same clothes or not.

Pyjamas are just clothes. I do think it's weird to wear them in public (makes people look like escaped mental patients IMO ) but seriously, as long as you're appropriately covered up, I don't see why Tesco has got such a problem with it.

i wonder if they would ask you to leave if they were tesco branded! does anyone remember when the news started reporting 24 hour shopping......they showed lots of people shopping in their pj's!

Who would in their right mind would go OUT in their pjyamas? :eek:

I live next to a papershop and have been know to nip out to buy fags at 6:00am wearing nothing buy a dressing gown and boxer shorts. When the Spar across the road opened at 6.00am I'd sometimes nip over for a pint of milk

I didn't do this because because I'm dirty, or to lazy to go to work, it's just I like a cuppa and a smoke before I have a shower and get dressed for work, and there's no point in putting clean clothes on a sweaty body just for the two minutes it takes to nip to the shop.

I think some people in here think going to tesco is a big trip to an out of town shopping centre, when in fact it can be just a few yards walk in the middle of the night when not many people are around.

Would you like it if you went to see your Doctor or Bank Manager etc and they were in their PJs.

But the doctor or bank manager would be at work, that's totally different to seeing someone in their own free time.

How would you feel if you want to the baths, or seaside and saw your bank manager and doctor in their speedos?

I just don't get it? You see women and men walking around in next to nothing, and think nothing of it, then kick up a fuss just because someone wears something in a place you think they should be wearing them.

I reckon the PJs of some women will probably cover up more than their outdoor clothes do!

It called respect for other people !
Why would you want to inflict your self confessed sweaty smell on other people ,have some respect ,shower and dress then have your fags for gods sake or are you that addicted you have to get your fix ?

No it's not, it's called you trying to put other people down just to make yourself look superior. Unfortunately, no matter how much you put other people down you will not get any better.

For one, I didn't say I inflicted my sweaty smell on anyone, I do brush my teeth and use deodorant before going out.

Secondly, I smell no worse than someone who has popped into the shop after work, or someone who has worked in the shop for 5 or 6 hours.

Its not 'chavy' to wear pjamas to the supermarket.

I've been to the supermarket in my pjamas, I basically live in my pjamas when i'm not at lectures or at the pub.

But i have only worn pjamas when we go at like 2am etc. I don't have a problem with it, why should you. Surely only the person wearing them should be. Its not like i'm naked

Chavs
I saw a news article on the BBC a few weeks ago showing chav mums at the school gates in PJ's.
And the other day (in birmingham) I was walking to the train station in Kingsnorton at 5pm to go home behind 2 chav girls still in the PJ's and slippers!
Yeh.. ok it was kingsnorton.... lol

I wouldn't go out in PJ's if Tesco (or any other shop) was next door.

Naaaaaasty :P
