Charlotte Danks aged 20, from Newquay, Cornwall, has opened a budget supermarket in the Cornish town. The shop sells products from 25p and aims to help poor people in Cornwall. 26/10/2015 A kind-hearted young woman is taking on the supermarket giants by opening up her own store to help the poor à and is selling most items for just 25 PENCE. See swns story SWMARKET. The Bargain Brand Food outlet is stocked from floor to ceiling with food which is not up to the standard of the supermarket giants so she can sell it for virtually nothing. Most of her stock comes from the main chains, but they choose not to sell it due to manufacturing defects, such as damaged packaging or incorrect labels. Charlotte Danks, 20, of Newquay, Cornwall, launched the venture five months ago, to give cash-strapped people in her local community a more viable option then just going to food banks. The items stocked in Charlotte's store, which include fresh meat, dairy, tinned foods and even hair dye, are coming to the end of their sell-by date, but are still well within their use-by date. Most items sell for just 25 pence, with the most expensive being a two-litre tub of curry powder, at Ã2.50. The shop has been so successful that Charlotte is now planning on opening two more in St Austell and Penzance.
