Don't get ripped off, read The Checkout, from the team behind ABC's top-rating show.

ABC TV's The Checkout has managed to delight and inform consumers while challenging and infuriating big business. Keeping the same mix of irreverence and information as the top-rating ABC show, The Checkout  is a fabulously funny read that also gives readers the knowledge and tools they can use in everyday consumer interactions.

Featuring illustrations, photographs, break-out boxes and heaps of incredibly useful (and mind-boggling) information and observations, there are sections on:

• How To Return This Book: a look at consumer rights when it comes to returning items using the purchase of the book as a case study 
• Do This Right Now: Consumer advice that can save readers money instantly 
• The Checklist: simple, one-page checklists of things consumers need to be aware of before making certain transaction (eg buying car insurance) 
• Product versus Packshot 
• Guilty Mum 
• Signs of the Times 
• Loving Pet Owner 
• First World Problem

And more!
