I've just been to the local chain grocery type shop with the DC. I bought some fresh soup and bread for the DC's dinner, two tubes of toothpaste as they were on offer, milk, loo roll and two bottles of wine as they were on offer too.
The man behind the counter was sniggering and saying I shouldn't be drinking as I have children.
I told him they were for the weekend, though I realise it was none of his business and shouldn't have said anything.
He was then bantering with another man behind the counter "loo roll because all that drinking make you need the toilet, toothpaste to hide the smell from her husband, soup because she can't be bothered to cook"
I just paid and left but wish I had just walked out. I shop there all the time but have never seen these staff. Do you think I should go in and complain to the manager or am I being overly sensitive?
I know they were just joking but it was quite offensive to me and there was a big queue behind me too.

AIBU?
To think shop staff shouldn't comment on what you are buying?
