It's not discrimination though is it, it's market research, targetted market research, targetting their target market.

absolutely LOVED your reply Penny Farthing
I am even older than you- at 48 I should be in the knackers yard by now !!!!!!!0 -
what an absolutely overblown and unnecessary reply. as has been mentioned, they're clearly doing market research targeted at a specific age group, which you unfortunately fall outside of. i too am outside the age bracket they require (fortunately, on the younger side). i'm not going to type up the written equivalent of taking a shit on their shop floor because i'm not who they want to do research on.
have a coke and a smile and relax.helpful tips
it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
there - 'in or at that place'
their - 'owned by them'
they're - 'they are'
it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)0 -
i agree they are only oing a bit of market research not discrimanating anyone from their brand if they are above a certain age limit, however as much as i adore the companies overpriced products im not gushing about their customer service and the horrid looks the assistants give you when you walk into their store after its been raining etc0
