A mum was baffled after learning a chemist refused to sell her elderly mother some makeup.
The mum explained her mother, who is 85, is a "bit deaf" but still has "her faculties", went shopping at a chemist to buy her 20-year-old granddaughter some lipstick for her birthday. The grandmother was refused service and had to venture to Boots instead.
The mum, whose daughter was the one she'd been shopping for, relayed the "odd" incident on Mumsnet, in a post titled "Chemist refused to sell my Mother makeup. How odd?"
