Woman banned from supermarket after getting caught drinking wine out of a PRINGLES can

Yes, you read that right! - by Amy Sinclair
  • 14 Jan 2019

Just when you thought you’d heard it all, along comes THIS. 

A woman in the US has been banned from Walmart after being caught riding around in an electric trolley and drinking wine from a Pringles can. 

Woman banned from supermarket after getting caught drinking wine out of a PRINGLES can

Now that’s a sentence you don’t hear every day.

Police arrived at the supermarket in Texas at 9am to find the woman hooning around the Walmart carpark in the trolley, knocking back plonk from the chip packet. Eyewitnesses say she’d been joyriding since 6.30am - that's two and a half hours! - before catching the attention of authorities. 

The wine-loving shopper made a run for it but was eventually captured at a nearby restaurant, where police told her she was banned from the Walmart for good. 

But for many who read the story online, the woman was an inspiration - not a menace to society. Read some of the Twitter reactions below!
