Default Yorkshire : 'Social' Supermarket Opens To Benefit Claimants




Video report
http://news.sky.com/story/1179822/so...efit-claimants

[Britain's first 'social' supermarket
has opened in Yorkshire where
those on benefits can buy cut-price
stock from major manufacturers
that otherwise would have
been thrown away.
Members of Community Shop
can buy good quality,
branded goods for a fraction
of the usual shelf price
such as a Warburtons loaf for just 20p,
or a tin of Heinz beans for 29p.
If the scheme being piloted
in the ex-mining community
of Goldthorpe, near Barnsley,
is successful, organisers plan
to roll stores out across the country.
The products from major chains
such as Asda, Marks & Spencer
and Morrisons are fit for consumption
and in-date, but may have been
rejected for a number of reasons,
such as a problem with the labelling,
or as a result of over-stocking.]


This is Clever
much of this food would be chucked away
due to errors on labels,
You must have a DSS Card approved to shop there
