It's the final episode of Cash Cows series two (sob), and we hear from you about your spending during lockdown: the good, the bad and the ugly. Plus, we catch up with how we're doing with our lockdown goals, and the wheels have truly come off Rachael's hard-saving regime.

This episode we're talking about how the pandemic has affected our savings, getting the most from your money when interest rates are so low, and the usually cautious Rachael goes on a spending spree. Plus finance journalist Zlata Rodionova explains the Bank of England base rate and how it affects us little people.

You've probably heard by now that Rachael's gone freelance, so for episode six we're mining her experience so far: the pros, the cons, the late payments, the spreadsheets... Plus, we speak to Berny, a British Sign Language interpreter, about her decision to work for herself and how coronavirus has affected her income.

In the latest episode of Cash Cows, we discuss something we're all doing a lot more of these days: shopping online. What we will and won't buy, the excitement of deliveries, and does virtual spending really hit the spot? Plus we're joined by Jeni Mundy, Managing Director UK and Ireland of Visa, to talk about keeping your money safe online.

This episode Pippa is off sick, so very ably standing in for her are The Boyfriends, Dave and Mark. We discuss splitting the bill and round-buying etiquette at the pub (ah, the pub...), plus Dave is obsessed with buying 99p ebooks and Mark gives an insight into living with Serina's spending urges.

This week we're discussing something we're suddenly all very keen on: hobbies, and what they cost us. Plus the usual nonsense: Rachael has strange plans to keep herself occupied, Serina is already over Waitrose, and Pippa presents a good spend of tit-pot levels of weirdness.

It's episode two of the new series, and we're all feeling a bit sorry for ourselves because we can't go on our planned holidays. We talk about cancellations, refunds and cash vs vouchers. Plus, Rachael is stockpiling serum, Serina drops £100 on watching Brothers & Sisters, and Pippa asks: how much takeaway is too much takeaway?

We're back (and recording remotely, so please forgive any sound glitches)! In the first episode of Cash Cows season two, we talk lockdown investments, recovering from the 'rona, and how much money it's possible to spend when you can't leave your house. Plus, Rachael is still freelance - just about.

Let she who has never been sucked in by a too-good-to-be-true online deal cast the first stone: as the first series of Cash Cows comes to a close, we reveal our biggest ever misspends. Better still, we read out some of yours, with anecdotes including £300 steak, upsettingly-large bar tabs and a couple's gap-year gone seriously wrong.

In the latest episode of Cash Cows, we talk dealing with money as a couple: who picks up the bill for dinner, are joint bank accounts weird, and are spending limits on presents the way to go? Plus we finally let our partners have their say on what how honest we've been about our spending (enter tit pots, stingy spending and a £10k bathroom), and Rachael interviews Isabel and James, who have just bought a house together, about how they manage their finances together.
