Pimm's o'clock for Prince
Supermarket staff were amazed when a thirsty Prince William walked in and bought £850 worth of alcohol.
The prince, wearing a T-shirt, baseball cap and jeans, cleared the Weymouth branch of Asda out of Pimm's during his shopping trip.
He filled four trolleys with wines, spirits, beer and snacks at the Dorset store.
The prince is currently training to be a troop leader at nearby Bovington Army Camp.
Store manager Darren Rideout said: "He came in the store at 2.10pm with two bodyguards.
"He had four trolley loads of shopping which was mainly alcohol and snacks. He cleared us out of Pimm's."
He added: "A few people came up and spoke to him and he was laughing and joking with them.
"The check-out girl didn't actually recognise him and he packed his own shopping.
"They left at 3.15pm with the prince in a black Audi followed by two black Range Rovers."
