Re: gypos back on aldi

Hum we had one of the sorry so called travellers actually no gypsies( her words not mine) in our shop about a month ago now she came in with a child and a big 6v car for a child, the steering wheel had broken off well been pulled off, she had her receipt with her but the manager said we will look at it but we dont have to fix it. She asked why and was replied with because it has not been used according to manufactures instructions if it had this would not have happened with that she then turned aggressive and demanded we fix it right now the manager refused she was jumping at the counter trying to get at him.

So he passed her the sign we have to let people know that we will prosecute if the customer begins any verbal or physical abuse, she then threw this at the manager who by this time had called site security who were in store waiting for the police, after she threw the sign at the manager she continued with " I cant read it yes i am a Gypo im from accrington if you want to report me to the police" the police as it happened were at the next shop down from us they came and took her outside had words with her.

The police woman came back in store later on to tell us they had had words with the woman and it turns out she had 6 kids in the little van and the big battrie operated 6v car she had brought to the shop she was given a warning and told to be on her way.

Now how many people would have got away with that?

Why is the word gypo wrong when she actually refered to herself in that way,

The kid was running riot around the shop and several times had to be stopped from walking out with stuff!!
