Went to the supermarket today during their elderly/vulnerable slot. Heavily and very obviously pregnant. Supermarket extremely clear that this is included in the category.

Was literally torn to shreds by all the over 70s, both to my face and in front of me but to each other, about how I wasn’t allowed there and even if I was I shouldn’t be 😱

Aren’t times shitty enough without needing to face down over 70s Regina George and her allies?! How is this necessary?! Even when the supermarket worker made it clear I was indeed allowed in, the bitching continued.

Have managed to purchase some non alcoholic wine for later.

Why can’t your husband go shopping for you? Not being mean but I’m in the “vulnerable” category as well, but as I don’t show any signs of anything (bar my hay fever kicking in now which would stress people out!)

Seriously, send him next time.

No she does not sound mental 🙄

Why should the op not go and use a slot designed for her vulnerable group?

Glad you had a positive experience this time, op 👍

It’s not ageist

It’s just factual , just happens that she had to describe their age to tell the story
