Seen this in a few of the local supermarkets so no longer use those places, I’ve taken my business elsewhere, permanently.
ASDA had a different variation, have a queue snaking around then up a kerb so in a wheelchair you were left with no escape. Stopped using this company everywhere, permanently. Hope they go bust.
Tesco have a very narrow gap to get through, a post being halfway across the queue so you can try either side & my chair will only just squeeze through. However, they don’t insist I take the wheelchair on this assault course, allowing me to jump the silliness.
