Signs asking customer to "judge" which items are non-essential have appeared at a B&M store in Swansea.
Many goods labelled as "non-essential" by the Welsh Government during the fire-break lockdown, which came into place in Wales at 6pm on Friday, October 23, were available to buy at the Parc Tawe branch of B&M after the tighter restrictions came info force.
Supermarkets have blocked off parts of their stores that stock "non-essential" items such as clothing, toys, greetings cards and electronics.
But the Parc Tawe B&M store has yet to take such a step, and has put the onus on the customer with signs on the shelves saying: "Please buy essential goods only - B&M store colleagues are not authorised to challenge members of the public so we ask shoppers to judge properly what is essential."
On Monday, October 26 people were still able to buy Christmas decorations, Halloween costumes, toys, stationery and greetings cards, all of which are on the Welsh Government's list of "non-essential" goods.

B&M also stocks food, toiletries and other items that are considered essential and can still be sold during the fire-break lockdown.
In a tweet posted over the weekend, First Minister Mark Drakeford said the Welsh Government would review "how the weekend has gone" to make sure that "common sense is applied" with regard to the ban on the sale of "non-essential" items.
A petition calling for an end to the restriction attracted more than 30,000 signatures in just a few hours last week.
B&M has been contacted for comment.
