Store staff miss snoozing woman

A woman had to be rescued after she fell asleep while trying out a sofa bed at a Slumberland store.
Gertrude Muller, 72, called emergency services when she finally woke up in the store in the town of Luebz to find it closed.
A police spokesman said: "It appears the bed was in a corner of the showroom and she was overlooked by staff as she lay there sleeping quietly."
She had come in to test the sofa out and she said the last thing she remembers before falling asleep was thinking how lovely and comfortable it was. She just nodded off. "She was a bit scared when she woke up still in the store but managed to find a phone in the salesroom and called us." She was impressed by the quality of the sofa bed but she is understandably a bit upset that the store staff did not see her and left her there so she is not quite as impressed with the quality of the service."
