Age Card? Really?

In Tesco earlier... Woman goes to the self service checkout, with her daughter, who's got to be in her early 20s. The mother is buying 3 bottles of wine, the daughter 1. The daughter hasn't put hers through yet, the mother is trying to pay for hers, and the daughter is standing beside her with her own bottle in her hands, waiting to be next in line. The attendant for the self service checkouts comes up and asks the daughter for ID, although at that moment it's the mother making the purchases... When the daughter (again, clearly in her early 20s) says that she has no ID on her, with a look of sheer disbelief, the attendant then says sorry and cancels the items on the screen i.e. the 3 bottles of wine and also takes the 1 bottle from the girl who had no ID... Now that's a bit much if you ask me! I know I've been asked for ID in Tesco by the same darned person again and again until I threatened to make a complaint. At 27 and the other half at 26, being regular customers doing weekly shops, we're clearly not 16 year old kids looking for a quick fix! We once got served solely on the merit that my other half (younger than I) was old enough looking!
