A mum was barred from buying school uniform in an Asda store because it was deemed a "non-essential" item. According to the Welsh Government, supermarkets are fine to sell items such as school uniform via a click and collect service and online. "And with school uniform you need to make sure it fits properly. That means that we are currently not permitted to sell school clothing in our store in Swansea. A spokesman from Tesco said: “School uniform is classed as non-essential by Welsh Government and these items are currently cordoned off at our Llansamlet Extra store.
