I went to Asda to do a birthday shop for a family member. A customer lady in the birthday aisle recommended me to buy sparkling candles and so I picked a few up.

I never really buy anything that requires ID and had zero idea about Asda’s “challenge 25” policy. It would really help if they would at least let the customer know that they will need ID for the item BEFORE they reach the checkout.

Anyway, the cashier is scanning my items (it was a huge shop) and she says that I might trigger challenge 25. She asked my age I said 27 and asked for ID I said I don’t have any. She said these sparkling candles can’t be bought then and put them to the side. Tbh the cashier was super strange. She made some odd comment when scanning bras like girl idk you why are you telling me about your sagging tits (her words!). Then asking if I have kids…

At the end she worded it kind of strangely but asked me if I still wanted the candles and ofc I said yes and she handed them over and said go to the self checkout and they will let you purchase them. As she gave me the items back she shouted it to her colleague that it’s a challenge 25.

It was all odd now looking back but my sister and I took the items to the checkout and another colleague asked for ID and then said I can’t make the purchase. Which is find and I do understand but wtf lol it all happened too quick and I was under the impression that the purchase would go through on the checkouts.

Like I mentioned, it would make the customer experience smoother if we are aware of which items trigger this challenge 25 bs. Or maybe I’m just living under a rock. Just wanted sparkling candles😭

A small part of me wishes Justin’s coachella performances didn’t exist because how has it been a few weeks now and he’s still on my mind everyday.

I keep dreaming about him too😭😭 I feel so parasocial lol I’m too old to be feeling like a 14 year old fan girl again.

I did an order today which contained paracetamol so had to give ID info. I put my dad’s full name and DOB because he usually answers the door and just thought it would be easier. I think because I was doing it in a rush, I may have accidentally written the wrong birth year for my dad.

The driver asked for this info and my dad gave his and the driver turned away. He then knocked out door a minute later and told my dad that the info is not correct on his phone. My dad gave his name and DOB again but still no luck…

Literally 20 minutes passed and the driver knocked our door again to say that his phone is blocked and he can’t bypass anything. I felt bad because maybe it was my fault. I told my dad to tell the driver that perhaps I wrote the wrong birth date and to try the date I think i might’ve written. But the driver said his phone wasn’t letting him do anything.

The driver then asked my dad to call just eat to ask for help to unblock his phone?? This part really confused me because surely as a just eat employee, you have more access to resolving your own issues yourself?? I still feel bad but just wondered if it was us the customers who were meant to call just eat or the driver??

I was going to see him in Birmingham. It’s been a few hours since the news broke out and honestly I was SO upset but the way some people are acting towards Zayn has made me feel so sorry for him idk 😭

I’m sure he would rather feel 100% and do his tour as previously planned than be unwell and cancel so many shows.

His new album is amazing in my opinion and I’m super gutted that I won’t be hearing the songs live but I’ve already forgiven him for cancelling lmao
