I was in Wickes DIY yesterday buying some bits & pieces, paint, mastic sandpaper ect, took the things up to the girl on the counter, well, she had the personality of a flee, and did`nt know what please or thankyou meant ! anyway, she put the things through the checkout, and then asked me for my name & postcode, i told her that i`d only just moved in to the house and had forgotten the postcode, to which she replied, "well i cant serve you then,i need your name and adress" i was gobsmacked ! is this a requirement, are we required by law to give these guys our names and adresses ? after all we dont have to do this when we go and buy food from Sainsburys or Waitrose do we ?
Just wondered if anyone knows about this ?
