"Somerfield are gay"

Ok, so yeah I posted a "Yay for Somerfield" post the other day.
That was before I found out they were Fudge Packing ID Nazis.

So I go into Gay-Somerfield today to buy all that cheapo drink I was raving on about, only to find out the offer had ended yesterday.



So I potter around the store looking for something to buy for me dinner (Pot Noodle)(Ick)
Then, low and behold. I look into one of those fridges they keep beer n' stuff in and see some genius has left one of the "Three for £1.75" signs infront of the Java drinks! (Yay!)
So, I fill up me basket and toddle off to the checkout.

Me: "Heya"
Susan the Checkout woman: "Hello, boop boop boop"
Me: Aren't they supposed to be on the three for £1.75?"
Susan the Checkout woman: "I'll just check, oh by the way have you got any ID?"
Me: No, I don't.
Susan: "Thingy whats her name, could you just do a price check for me?"
Thingy woman: "Ok, five seventy five"
Me: err they're on offer
Thingy: No they're not
Me: Yes. They are. Theres a sign in your little fridge thingy over there.

She storms off, I follow and point out the sign and bask in my God like "Oh yes I was right and you were wrong, nyer nyer nyer-ness"

She rips the sign down and goes "hrrrrrmpf!" (Kinda like a camel does)
Then all of a sudden she spouts out with... "Well, I'm sorry, if you don't have any ID then I can't sell it to you"


How sodding rude! I've bought loads of drink from them before now and oooo just because I proved the Fudge Packing ID Nazi wrong, she goes and IDs me!
I've never been IDed like EVER!
Do I look seventeen!? Ummm no! I'm 19! Going on 20! I'm going to need a bloody walking stick soon and she IDs me!?


URRRRRRRRAAAAAAAGGGGGGH!

Ohhh! He's pis*ed off ;)

A few months back I took the OPS2 Magazine, which had a 15 on the DVD. The old checkout woman at WHSMith didn't ask for ID as such, but looked at me in a "Hmmm, how old are you" way, before reluctantly swiping the thing. I was 18 at the time, and looked it; I got into several clubs before without any proof, so what's with the age check? It wasn't compulsory anyway - the 15 rating was by ELPSA i.e. it's there only as a reference.

Anyone else start getting ID'ed once they turn 18? I never used to get ID'ed, now I do 50% of the time. It's weird. Never got ID'ed in a supermarket though.

Ahhh, cool.

Phil and his betting...

...I dont follow...

Go down to the bookies and put a tenner on number 4 coming out on the Irish lottery. That'll be a nice easy £50.

Make your own alcohol.

Get some cheap white rum, some cheap fruit juice and some Domestos and mix it in a big tub and fill old milk bottles up with it.

Mmmmm coma

Sounds like someone's got an alkehull problem...

OK, I actually won about £9.50, but at least it minimised my losses to only about £15 throuhgout the whole night...

I was on a budget so the most I bet was £5.
