Coles customer appalled by fellow shopper's outfit choice – was she reasonable to call it out?

When we say that going to the grocery store has become a mundane task, we bet most of you folks here will probably agree.

Making a shopping list, driving to the local supermarket, roaming from aisle to aisle, loading up our trolleys or baskets, and then heading to pay at the checkout – at this point, almost every weekend is pretty much a routine already.

That is probably the reason why some shoppers no longer felt the need to "dress up" whenever they have to go to the local supermarket. Just take a look at the woman featured here in the story…



During an early-evening visit to Coles, a customer saw another shopper wearing an outfit that she felt was inappropriate for a supermarket and was shocked and appalled.

The shopper, who had visited a Coles store on Friday night, was passing by the frozen food aisle when she spotted a woman dressed in nothing but a pair of sneakers and a dressing gown.

"OMG, seriously, how lazy do you have to be to not bother getting dressed?" said the concerned shopper in a message to Yahoo News Australia. She snapped the picture above, showing the "inappropriate" outfit in question, and shared it with the news outlet.

"Has all dignity gone out the window when leaving the house?" She commented on the shopper's apparent "slothful" lifestyle while expressing her disbelief in what she had just witnessed.



This isn't the first time a supermarket shopper's outfit has raised eyebrows on social media.

Just a month ago, a worker at Woolworths provoked a discussion on social media by making fun of a customer who was wearing thongs and jeans at the same time.

In a now-deleted video on TikTok, the Woolies staffer wrote: "don't you dare come into my store looking like this" in the caption, implying that they can't stand seeing people pair jeans with thongs.

Many other users on social media have criticised the Woolies employee harshly in the comments section after quickly recognising the video as "discrimination" against innocent customers.

"It's not okay to judge other people like that," one user wrote, with a second one agreeing and adding, "Seriously just do your job, judging customers by what they wear IS NOT in your job description. Be better."

A third user has also called out the Woolies staffer, saying: "What kind of punk films a customer while working?"



Earlier this year, we also wrote a story about a woman being called out for her "inappropriate" attire in the supermarket.

Sophie Allen, a fitness influencer and certified personal trainer from Sydney, encountered "disapproving" looks from other customers while shopping in a tight-fitting black sports top and purple workout leggings.

"It happens anytime I go into a supermarket after a training session in my crop top. It’s so disappointing that in 2022 women are still being judged for their choice in clothing," said the 31-year-old gym-goer.

What are your thoughts, folks? Do you believe that there are clothes that should not be worn in a grocery store? Or do you believe that people should be able to shop in whatever attire they feel most comfortable in?

Stop being so judgemental. You do not know their circumstances
 
Has nobody thought that maybe the poor shopper had just come out of hospital and only had those clothes with them? They could perhaps live a long way from the shops and therefore had to do what they could as the opportunity arose. Living in a rural area I have seen similar occurences so please don't be too quick to judge. There are always two sides to the story.

Thongs and jeans x- how off is that? I’m 74 and wear jeans. Can’t go into some shops without something on feet. As I hate shoes and have so much trouble with them I wear thongs . Shame on me - get a life.
 
Why defend a bad look?? We all judge. Just keep it to ourselves, unless something or someone is harmful to others. Unfortunately, we now live in a society, that embraces an "anything goes" mentality. Let's face it, manners, etiquette and style are rare these days.

I think people should mind their own business and stop being so judgemental. His money is just as good as anyone else’s. We don’t know his circumstances and if you don’t like the way he’s dressed don’t look.

I saw something very similar some time ago at Woolworth's, Tuggerah in NSW. A lady wearing pyjama's, slippers and dressing gown about 9am.

I think it is not the business of anyone to comment or judge on what others choose to wear. Last time I looked, there were no rules on attire to enter a supermarket.
 
The shopper appeared to be fully covered so what's the problem? When we first came to Australia (70 years ago) it was quite common for women to go "down the street" with curlers in their hair, wearing dressing gowns, cigarette in hand while pushing prams. At first my mother was shocked, but later said "what a wonderful country. You can wear anything you like and not be criticised for it. Where I came from if you wore something different, the gossipmongers would be heard all over town"
 
I had just come form the swimming pool ,dressed in a towelling robe and thongs. I needed something urgently and shopped looking like this but a towelling robe . As we live at the beach it was "overdressed"compared to many shoppers in bikini top and shorts!

We need to show some level of appropriateness. Otherwise God help us all. It's not judgemental it's just common sense. Gone are the days of just seeing our toddlers dressed for bed but out with mum for last minute shopping.

"It happens anytime I go into a supermarket after a training session in my crop top. It’s so disappointing that in 2022 women are still being judged for their choice in clothing," said the 31-year-old gym-goer.

What are your thoughts, folks? Do you believe that there are clothes that should not be worn in a grocery store? Or do you believe that people should be able to shop in whatever attire they feel most comfortable in?

If a dressing gown was the only item of clothing that would have kept me warm during these extremely cold evenings then I would certainly choose my health and comfort over the judgement of a fellow shopper who, instead of minding her own business, thought she could dictate what other people should wear or not wear. This item of clothing would be called a coat if it wasn’t called “a dressing gown”, the only difference between the two is the material that was used to fabricate it!!!! So, to our dear fellow shopper I say “ please keep your eyes on your shopping trolley next time or stay home in your PROPER ATTIRE”. Good day!
 
When we say that going to the grocery store has become a mundane task, we bet most of you folks here will probably agree.

Making a shopping list, driving to the local supermarket, roaming from aisle to aisle, loading up our trolleys or baskets, and then heading to pay at the checkout – at this point, almost every weekend is pretty much a routine already.

That is probably the reason why some shoppers no longer felt the need to "dress up" whenever they have to go to the local supermarket. Just take a look at the woman featured here in the story…



During an early-evening visit to Coles, a customer saw another shopper wearing an outfit that she felt was inappropriate for a supermarket and was shocked and appalled.

The shopper, who had visited a Coles store on Friday night, was passing by the frozen food aisle when she spotted a woman dressed in nothing but a pair of sneakers and a dressing gown.

"OMG, seriously, how lazy do you have to be to not bother getting dressed?" said the concerned shopper in a message to Yahoo News Australia. She snapped the picture above, showing the "inappropriate" outfit in question, and shared it with the news outlet.

"Has all dignity gone out the window when leaving the house?" She commented on the shopper's apparent "slothful" lifestyle while expressing her disbelief in what she had just witnessed.



This isn't the first time a supermarket shopper's outfit has raised eyebrows on social media.

Just a month ago, a worker at Woolworths provoked a discussion on social media by making fun of a customer who was wearing thongs and jeans at the same time.

In a now-deleted video on TikTok, the Woolies staffer wrote: "don't you dare come into my store looking like this" in the caption, implying that they can't stand seeing people pair jeans with thongs.

Many other users on social media have criticised the Woolies employee harshly in the comments section after quickly recognising the video as "discrimination" against innocent customers.

"It's not okay to judge other people like that," one user wrote, with a second one agreeing and adding, "Seriously just do your job, judging customers by what they wear IS NOT in your job description. Be better."

A third user has also called out the Woolies staffer, saying: "What kind of punk films a customer while working?"
