'You used to always be allowed in Tescos. But not now, it is ridiculous and stupid. I've got lovely pairs of pyjamas, with bears and penguins on them. I've worn my best ones today, just so I look tidy.'

That is going too far...I don't have animals on mine

Why do they wear slippers? They will just get dirty?
If she went to all that effort to pick out a "lovely pair" of pyjamas wouldn't it have been easier to just put some nice outdoor clothes on?

I used to hate seeing this in Liverpool, it made people look like such slobs. Why would anyone be in their pyjamas at 1 in the afternoon.

In general, my opinion is that people who walk round a supermarket in the middle of the day are lazy and slovenly.I mean, I can understand if it's late at night and a kid is ill so you quickly put on a long coat and boots, totally covering you, to get some medicine or milk for the morning.

Look at this woman here. She wouldn't look so bad if she wasn't wearing her slippers but the thought that she slept in those clothes and probably hasn't changed out of them for a few days...yuK!
Exactly. Probably hasn't changed her underwear either, if she did then there was no need to put her PJs back on. Why do they think it is acceptable to go out in public like that? I don't blame Tesco, tbh.

If I am having a lazy day then I will wear *clean* jamas after a bath as they are more comfortable than clothes, if I need to go out quickly, put on my long coat and boots and you can hardly even see them.

Where is the drama?

That's the point. You wear clean pyjamas and if you go out you cover yourself up: not like the people in this report.

I can't see the problem,people should wear what they want to wear when ever they want

I think it's other people who got the problem and as for hygiene i see people shopping in sweaty work clothes and all that whats next they will ban people for wearing work clothes when they pop in for a pint of milk

I don't wear my PJs to go shopping becaues they are Batman ones and would be a bit embarrassed

How ever i have poped to the shops in my slippers

Another thing *some* people could be wearing the same normal clothes days on end without them being washed, after a while you would realise when you were near them because of the smell, but before you got to that point you wouldn't know. There are a lot of disgusting people out there.

What a ridiculous rule. A) They're not offensive or revealing

If someone can't be bothered to get dressed, they likely can't be bothered to wash, and very likely not after using the loo. That is offensive.

Tescos are rather nice round here, actually.

Whenever I go back to the UK this year, I feel like putting my jamas on and taking my 4 year old to Starbucks, what sort of reception do you think I would get?

How lazy! Although I think it is quite "fashionable" now to walk around with your night attire on.

I think standards are slippng these days ( I sound very old I know) I remember when on holiday gentlemen and ladies made the effort to dress to go down to dinner and anyone in jeans and trainers trainers were refused entry into the majority of nightclubs. People used to make a lot of effort, now every one just seems not to care!

On the Radio tonight an interview with a St Mellons shopper who had previously been stopped for PJ wearing answered questions along the following lines.


pj: We only popped in for some fags

Int: When was this?

pj: 10:30 - 11 in the morning you know real early
25 years I think she was

Too lazy to get up, too lazy to get washed and dressed, no self respect and probably wonders why no-one has any for her.

You don't do much, watch tv, browse internet etc etc...don't get dressed and if you do need something just put on a coat and get it quickly. Just relax.
I have days like that. But if i want to go outside the house, i get dressed! It's not particularly difficult.

Had a woman come in my work once (not a supermarket) at about 9pm. Pjs and a full face pack. Pure white. All she was missing was cucumber over her eyes.

I think some younger people do it as some kind of desperate attempt to be edgy, or something.

I couldn't do it. I can't even go out in normal jogging bottoms because I just don't feel dressed. Think that Tesco branch totally banning it is a bit extreme, though.

It's offensively chavvy. Especially when people are wearing them to go shopping during the day because they are too lazy to bother getting dressed.
And that's offensively narrow-minded.

Reeboks, Burberry, Adidas tracksuits etc are chavvy, since when have pj bottoms been?

I'm not the slightest bit chavvy, nor are my friends.

If someone can't be bothered to get dressed, they likely can't be bothered to wash, and very likely not after using the loo. That is offensive.

Tescos are rather nice round here, actually.
Poor hygiene is most offensive but not all people in pjs are unhygienic and not all dirty people wear pjs.

As I've said some people in pjs are perfectly clean.

Some people should take a little more pride in themselves, it doesn't cost anything.

I think Tesco banning people from wearing PJ's in store is taking it a bit too far, but, I cannot understand why anyone would want to walk around in public with them on in the first place. Surely its not difficult to slip into any old clothes now is it?

People find the strangest things to get upset about.

Some people go into Tesco in their Jim-Jams. Not really It's not really worth getting into a fankle about it.
