A Tesco, a maior cadeia de supermercados na UK, proibiu os clientes da loja em Cardiff de fazerem compras em pijamas e/ou descalços. A medida està a causar alguma controversia na medida que algumas pessoas acham que isso atenta à liberdade de cada um. Outros apoiam a medida.
Algumas mães defendem-se, dizendo que por terem de deixar os filhos na escola, ficam com falta de tempo para se preparem.

Tesco bans shopping for bananas in pyjamas ... or bare feet

Customers at a Welsh branch of Tesco have been banned from shopping in their pyjamas or bare feet.
Notices have been put up in the St Mellons store in Cardiff saying: "Footwear must be worn at all times and no nightwear is permitted".
A spokesman said Tesco did not have a strict dress code but it did not want people shopping in their nightwear in case it offended other customers.
He said he was not aware of any other Tesco stores having to put up similar signs.
"We're not a nightclub with a strict dress code, and jeans and trainers are of course more than welcome.
"We do, however, request that customers do not shop in their PJs or nightgowns. This is to avoid causing offence or embarrassment to others."
Tesco is not the first store to ban customers from shopping in their nightwear. In 2008 a Dublin cafe erected a "no pyjamas" sign, and in 2006 the Gulf emirate of Ras al-Khaimah introduced a new dress code to stop people wearing their sleep suits to work.
More than 10,600 people have joined a Facebook group called "STOP GIRLS AND WOMEN WEARING PYJAMAS ON THE STREETS OF LIVERPOOL!!!!!", and last year an Irish production company made a documentary called The Pyjama Girls, about a group of teenagers living in central Dublin who spend most of their time in pyjamas.
