You and Yours

Asda launches a new store to encourage us to shop more sustainably - how will it work? We speak to a boss. Social media users are disappointed the products they bought from Instagram adverts are comically smaller than what was advertised. We find out how companies are shipping products from China that don't match the description on the website, and make it difficult to get your money back. There's lots of YouTubers who act as vigilantes to trap internet fraudsters for entertainment, we speak to one of the most famous, Atomic Shrimp. And, how empty shops and office space on the high street is being converted into housing. Presenter: Winifred Robinson Producer: Lydia Thomas
