Wales's best consumer stories with Lucy and Rhodri Owen. As Rhodri gets out and about, Lucy shares top tips for money saving, while roving reporter Rachel Treadaway-Williams investigates viewers' consumer problems.

Shops and stalls offering to buy gold for cash are springing up on high streets and in shopping centres across Wales, but how do you know whether you're getting the right price for old jewellery, and what should be sold for scrap and what valued as an antique? Rhodri presents the definitive guide to selling gold, and highlights the huge variation in prices offered in different towns.

The Five-Minute Medic visits Wrexham to discover what to do if someone accidentally swallows a poisonous substance in the home. Lucy gets good advice on the dos and don'ts from paramedic Osian Roberts.

When Miriam and Umar Rafique got married it was a day to remember, but their wedding album was memorable for the wrong reasons. It took over a year to arrive, and when it did some photos were the wrong way round. Rhodri sets out to discover what went wrong and why the company involved still hasn't put things right.

Rachel's back in Pembrokeshire to check how Jayne Thomas, from Tenby, is getting on with the thrifty redecoration of her kids' bedrooms. Previously, thrift queen Angela Dooner showed Jayne top tips on how to restore bargain junk shop finds and make her own cushions, quilts and decorations, but can she manage the painting and decorating?
