Running headphones
Any recommendations for wireless running headphones that last? Have purchased several through Amazon over the years and none of them seem to last long term so seems a bit of a false economy. Are Shokz or Apple worth the extra? Thanks

Money Moral Dilemma: Should we leave our golf club and rejoin later to get cheaper membership?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... My golf club offers cheaper rates to new members than to those renewing. We've approached the owners about the unfairness of this, but they didn't seem to take us seriously, so a large group of us are now all thinking of leaving, playing somewhere else for a year, then…

Virgin active gym

They charge £50 a month but silly me didn't realise it's quite far and £50 a month is just not worth it. I still need to pay the first month's payment, and is it my first time ever creating any kind of membership and me…

Heating on for Lodgers

I want a home gym
I really want to lose some weight and whilst financially a subscription to the gym would probably work out cheaper, I don't have the confidence to go to the gym. I'm on the larger side, it's fair to say, and I don't feel confident to put my body on show at the gym, or make a fool of myself. I wondered if anyone else has…

Fitness levels fallen off a cliff
I used to be a really good runner, I was a member of my local running team and I’d run on the roads 3 or 4 times a week and the rest of the time I’d either go the gym or go swimming. But then COVID happened and I ran 4 or 5miles on the roads every day for about 15 months until my knees just gave up on me.…

Best alternative to Lidl running shoes?
My husband has been very happy with the several pairs of £15 running shoes he's had from Lidl. I've been waiting in vain for ages for them to stock them again, but it doesn't seem to be likely and the Lidl shoes are now very worn! So I was wondering if anyone can recommend somewhere to source something similar ie…
