Lidl apologises after women buying period products 'humiliated' by male cashier

Two women were reportedly left "humiliated" by a male cashier when buying period products in Lidl. The women, believed to be a mum and daughter, bought multiple sanitary items in the supermarket last weekend.

However, shoppers said they were left stunned when a male member of staff working on the tills allegedly told them loudly in front of other customers that there was a limit on the number of such products they could buy. The women were said to have been left "humiliated" and having to move to another till, reports Somerset Live.

Venting her anger about the incident on social media, one shopper claimed: “This man thought it acceptable to completely humiliate and shame a mother and daughter whilst attempting to buy multiple sanitary products. Two women living in the same household with synced periods… not uncommon at all.
