Claire Birchell, 25, was told she could not buy the Jack Daniel's barbecue sauce which has an alcohol content of 2 per cent. Staff at the store in in Flitwick, near Bedford also refused to sell the bottle to her brother-in-law, Philip Dover, 27, who did have ID, because they believed he would just give the bottle to Miss Birchell. She was visiting her parents in Flitwick at the time and wanted to buy the sauce because shops near her home in Liverpool didn't stock it. Mr Dover said: 'We just could not believe it. It's not as if we were going to go and sit down the park drinking it.

I'm sorry ma'am, I need to see some ID for the sauce...
I have to say, this one doesn't suprise me at all. For those of you who are state side and hate how Wal-Mart is taking over our country, the brits are not immune. They have to deal with a retailer called Tesco. Now they are kinda cool, just like Wal-Mart, they have turned themselves into a one stop shop for all your needs. Problem is, like our infestation... they think they are better than everyone else. In this case, refusing to sell Jack Daniel's BBQ sauce without a valid ID...
