Self-Checkout, Borrowing from Relatives, Home Adaptations
Why is Morrison's bringing back more staffed tills? And why borrowing from friends and relatives is on the rise. Presented by Winifred Robinson.
The backlash against the self-service till is starting. The supermarket, Morrisons, says it is to bring back staffed express tills, because its research has found some of its customers prefer not to use them. Their research found two-thirds of shoppers worry they will hold up queues in store, as they wait for staff to override machines.
Borrowing from friends and family is on the rise. We now owe around a quarter of a billion pounds to loved ones. We hear the perks and pitfalls of borrowing from those you know.
And the families who have moved into newly-built homes - but have been waiting more than seven months for a phone and internet connection.
