Social care costs, Cosmetic surgery deals, Personalised funerals
Consumer affairs programme. A new report looks at how much getting old could cost. Also, cosmetic surgery deals and small print, and how to smile on people's faces at a funeral.
A new report questions what - if anything - people are saving towards the cost of care they will need when they grow old.
Cosmetic surgery deals - should there be offers for extra treatments? And are patients reading the small print?
What happens when your child's wheelchair is forgotten at an airport - twice.
Supermarket temper tantrums, what you should do when your little darling isn't an angel of the aisles
And lightening the mood at a funeral, why more and more of us want the personal touch at our final send-off.
