II GOT a parking ticket the other day in Aldi car park. I had parked and shopped 16 minutes longer than I should have. I was not aware of this, but yes it was me on camera, my car, my reg number, as clear as day.
That shopping week cost me £40 more. I paid and the way the letter was worded I got a bargain, it could have been £70 if not paid within 28 days.
So my point is this: grab a trolley, run round the shop, don’t speak to anybody, and don’t let them through the till before you, don’t stop in the car park for any reason whatsoever.
You are on camera. Not a bad return on an hourly rate, if you add it up.
