We look at the latest retail figures and try to find out what we are buying and where we are buying it. Freedom of Information requests - why are they so tricky and do they really need to be? Why are so many 6 Nations rugby tickets making it onto Viagogo, when the terms and conditions for buying them in the first place clearly state you can't resell them? The scammer speaks...we hear from a woman who claims to have duped people out of millions of pounds by luring them into the world of stock-market betting. The parents who dress their kids in matching outfits - why would you want your child to be a complete mini-me? And fishing - who really decides how much the UK can catch? PRESENTER: PETER WHITE PRODUCER: PETE WILSON
