Lidl apology after man 'stops woman buying sanitary items'

Lidl bosses have issued an apology after two women were "humiliated" by a male member of staff when buying period products.

The women, believed to be a mother and daughter, visited their local store last weekend where they bought multiple sanitary items. Another customer said said while they were being served a member of staff on the tills allegedly loudly told them in front of other shoppers that the number of products they could purchase was limited.

The women are said to have been "humiliated" and forced to move to another till at the Wells branch of Lidl, in Somerset.
