Tesco is now charging shoppers for something that used to be free

The supermarket giant has confirmed it is trialling a new scheme in some shops that sell F&F clothing. Customers at those stores can either purchase a hanger for 10p, alongside the item of clothing they buy, or leave it behind if they do not wish to incur the extra fee.

Customers who have noticed the new charge have shared their thoughts on social media. One Reddit user said it felt like a "sneaky charge being imposed on customers" as they had never seen it before. However, others supported the extra fee. One Reddit user noted that it was "surely a good thing" as the only people who would take the hanger were those needing it which would reduce plastic waste. A second said: "It’s a trial. They are trying to discourage people from taking hangers as they usually just get chucked anyway. If Tesco can keep them they can reuse them and therefore don't have to produce more. Little planet saving steps.
