The consumer expert spoke to one woman inside the shop about why she decided to queue.
The woman revealed she wanted to buy a Mulberry handbag and cashmere jumpers.
What did she say?
Alice asked whether she could have just ordered the items online, and the shopper replied: “I could have.
“But I have done online shopping for the past few months so I felt I wanted to come out and get back in the shops.”
Some viewers weren’t impressed.
What did they say?
One person wrote: “A mulberry handbag and a cashmere jumper. Are you kidding me.”
That woman out buying a Mulberry handbag is everything I wish to be.
Another said: “Mulberry bloody handbag and cashmere jumpers?! #thismorning really?”
A third added: “A Mulberry handbag and Cashmere jumpers!
“Oh how to be in such a privileged position to be able to leave your house and buy these essential items.”
A mulberry handbag and a cashmere jumper. Are you kidding me. #ThisMorning
