It's the final programme of the year and we'll be joined by our consumer correspondent Jimmy Hughes and Lee Hatton from the Belfast Law Centre who will be answering your questions live on air.
We hear from Julie who was awarded PIP but then the Social Security Agency said it was appealing that decision. Julie was diagnosed with gastroparesis in 2015 and she tells us what it is and how it affects her life.
Plus, did you get a gift card for Christmas? Jimmy Hughes will talk about your consumer rights when it comes to using them and how long you can keep them for... A recent consumer poll also reveals some interesting facts regarding gift cards... Would you be happy to get a gift card as a present or do you think it's just the lazy option?
We also speak to Ellen who is going ape over the price of bananas! She was charged too much for bananas twice in the same store and asks what is the position regarding weights and measurements in stores these days.
Do you know the expiry date on your shampoo? We speak to Teresa who tells us that a local pharmacy is selling lotions and shampoos with a best before date of 2006! She wants to know if it's legal and we got the answers from Terry Maguire, the spokesman for the Ulster Chemists Association.
Plus, what are your rights when buying online from a non UK-based site? Carline bought two pairs of boots directly from the manufacturer and had to return them as they didn't fit her. She wants to know can the website ignore the UK's rules and make her wait longer to receive her refund?
