Wine promotions, Benefit delays, Runner jobs
How many wine bottles on promotion in supermarkets are in reality a good deal? On average a quarter are always on offer. Plus the eight-month wait for disability benefits.
More people are currently going to Citizens Advice with problems with Personal Independence Payments than anything else. The payments replaced Disability Living Allowance in 2013, but since then the advice charity has had 300,000 queries about it - and 20,000 appeals have been lodged. Winifred Robinson meets one man who took his appeal to tribunal and won, but has still been waiting more than 6 weeks for payment.
Running jobs in the film and TV industries are few and far between, and competition is fierce. Now the government is looking into websites that charge freelancers a monthly subscription to search and apply for work.
Plus how many wine bottles on supermarket 'promotion' are in reality a good deal? Research for You & Yours finds on average a quarter of all bottles are on offer. A former buyer for one of the big supermarkets gives us his verdict.
