'Pay as you feel' supermarket opens in Sheffieldpublished at 14:49 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2016
James Vincent
Reporter BBC Look North
I've been down to a new kind of supermarket that has opened in Sheffield.
It's a "pay as you feel" supermarket which means you pay as much as you feel your trolley of goods is worth.
But there are some rules to follow:
The Sharehouse Market sells surplus food donated by regular stores.
You can pay for your shopping with cash or donate your time or skills instead.
It's hoped the store will help tackle hunger and food waste.
Weather: Cold, sunny and slipperypublished at 14:22 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2016

The cold and sunny weather will continue this afternoon with fog persisting in places.
It could also stay a bit slippery so take care if you're driving.
