Lidl has been forced to apologise after two customers buying sanitary products were reportedly "humiliated" by a male cashier. It's claimed the staff member on a till loudly told them in front of customers that there was a limit on how many feminine hygiene products they could buy.
The women, who were believed to be a mother and daughter, were mortified and other shoppers were shocked - with one claiming the man at the till was shouting out to them at the back of the queue. After trying to explain that they hadn't exceeded the limit, the embarrassed pair eventually moved to another till, reported SomersetLive.
Lidl has issued an apology following the incident at its store in Wells, Somerset, adding that "re-training is being provided" to make sure it doesn't happen again. One customer, Holly Baker, recounted the scene in a post on Facebook.
