UK friends accidentally get locked inside Aldi shop
Two pals were shocked after they got locked in Aldi after hours when staff shut shop with them still inside.
Sarah Sinclair, 27, popped into the shop for bread and milk with her boyfriend's brother Luke Miller, 25, just before closing.
But while they were browsing the aisles staff seemingly finished their shifts and by the time the pair got the checkout, the shop was empty.
They'd been accidentally shut inside and had to call 101 to escape, eventually making it out a fire exit, in Redcar, north Yorkshire.
The pair were trapped for around 30 minutes and saw the funny side of their ordeal.
Sarah said: "When we first arrived there were people in there and staff at the checkouts.
"We were just wandering around shopping and didn't pay attention until we went to pay and I started to think 'where's the staff'?
"Then we noticed a beeping but at the time, I just wanted my bread and milk so I hadn't thought anything of it - I had barely even noticed the sound.
"We started looking around - I turned to Luke and he said 'oh no'.
"We couldn't believe it and I was laughing so hard I thought I'd pee until I started thinking 'but what do we actually do?'.
"When all the doors were locked I started thinking I'd have to open a drink off the shelf.
"But I also thought about how there would probably be a bed among the stuff in the middle aisle so we'd be ok!
"Eventually Luke called 101 and the police told us to try the fire doors - we ended up having to go into the stock room at the back to find one that opened, and finally we got out.
They got trapped during a shopping trip on December 27th 2021.
ALDI declined to comment.
