The Shopping Bags

The Shopping Bags was a Canadian television series that aired on the W Network in Canada and on Fine Living in the United States. Launched in 2002, the series focused on consumer affairs and better shopping. Each week the program looked at several goods and services to discover which one was the best. This was also done to guide viewers towards which product or service may best suit their needs. The program looked at day-to-day shopping and big ticket items, as well as having a final "Shopping Thought" at the end of each program. The Shopping Bags was produced in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada by Worldwide Bag Media Inc. and distributed by Picture Box Distribution. The hosts and show creators are award-winning journalists Anna Wallner and Kristina Matisic. The show first aired on the W Network, a television channel in Canada aimed at women. The program was also broadcast on Fine Living in the United States, a channel aimed at both male and female viewers. In 2005, a companion book to The Shopping Bags television show was written by Wallner and Matisic and published in 2006. The book is titled The Shopping Bags: Tips, Tricks, and Inside Information to Make You a Savvy Shopper.

Kassa

Kassa is a consumer television program produced by VARA, which was created by and is hosted by Felix Meurders in the Netherlands.

Street Cents

"Street Cents," a teen-centered newsmagazine aired on CBC Television from 1989 to 2006, stood out for its focus on consumer and media awareness for young viewers. Created by producer John Nowlan and inspired by Britain's "Pocket Money," the series garnered critical acclaim, winning Gemini Awards and an International Emmy for Best Youth Programming. Ad-free like CBC's Marketplace, it prioritized unbiased critique of products and services, promoting safety, ethics, and youth empowerment. Despite its lauded inclusivity, the show ended in October 2006 due to declining teen viewership, leaving CBC-TV without youth-targeted programming.

Joe Lycett's Got Your Back

Joe Lycett, famed for his epic battles with petty officials and dodgy scammers, fights for the consumer rights of the Great British public in this series. With the help of his assistant Mark Silcox, a weekly celebrity guest, and some daring hidden camera investigations, Joe campaigns on behalf of viewers who've been wronged by big corporations, caught out by small print, and hoodwinked by fraudsters. From dishing the dirt on unhygienic takeaways and battling with big banks, to pulling back the covers on sub-par hotel rooms, and taking low budget airlines for a bumpy ride, Joe is determined in his quest for consumer justice.

Rogue Traders

Rogue Traders was a prime-time BBC One presenter-led investigative consumer affairs television series starring Matt Allwright, an investigative journalist and presenter and his side-kick, Dan Penteado who also works as a private investigator around Europe and the UK. Rogue Traders began in 2001 and has run for nine series on BBC One. Allwright and Penteado film and script much of the series themselves, resulting in an improvised, 'on the hoof' feel to the show. An occasional catchphrase used during the show is "We never give up." Since 10 September 2009, a new one-hour revamp of the consumer-affairs programme Watchdog began airing, incorporating Rogue Traders as a segment of the show.

Kieskeurig

Kieskeurig was een consumentenprogramma van de TROS, dat werd uitgezonden van medio jaren 70 tot medio 1993. Het was naast Koning Klant het tweede consumentenprogramma op de Nederlandse televisie. Het programma werd aanvankelijk gepresenteerd door Mireille Bekooij en Hein van Nievelt. Na de overstap van Wim Bosboom van de VARA naar de TROS nam deze de plaats in van Hein van Nievelt en werd de laatste invalpresentator. Het programma was behulpzaam bij consumenten met klachten of problemen op consumentengebied. Ook vonden er testen plaats. Een bekende rubriek was 'Het wrak van de weg' waarbij een consument centraal stond die een auto had gekocht die niet voldeed. Het item eindigde dan bijna altijd met het wrak dat door een snijbrander tot schroot werd verwerkt met daarbij de woorden 'Die zien we nooit meer terug'. In 1993 werd het programma voor het laatst uitgezonden en later opgevolgd door het nog steeds bestaande consumentenprogramma TROS Radar.
