Shoppers all over the UK have begun leaving money in baby items at supermarkets as a new social media trend starts to sweep the country.

The viral "She Deserved The Purse" trend began in the US when TikTok user Denaesha Gonzalez posted a video of a purse abandoned in the baby section of a store.

She uploaded the video with the words "she deserved the purse" while also commenting: "To the Mother who chose themselves last, you deserve the world tonight and always."
