The price of chocolate keeps going up

The price of chocolate keeps rising. Cocoa futures have roughly doubled this year after surging 61 percent overall last year. Rising temperatures and weather conditions have stressed and damaged crops in West Africa, which produces more than 70% of the global cocoa supply. As a result, big chocolate companies like Hershey’s are passing those costs on to consumers.

ATT To Issue $5 Refunds To Customers Impacted By Network Outage

AT&T says it will give affected customers $5 each to compensate for last week’s network outage. Many customers were left without cellphone service for hours on Thursday. The company now says on its website that customers will get a $5 credit on their account within two billing cycles. The credit doesn’t apply to AT&T Business, prepaid service or Cricket, its low-cost wireless service. AT&T blamed the outage on an error in coding, and says it was not the result of a cyberattack.

Consumers Change Shopping Habits Amid Inflationary Prices

Consumers are pushing back against inflationary prices by changing the way they shop. Fed up with prices that remain about 19% higher-on average-than where they were before the pandemic, consumers are fighting back. In grocery stores, they’re shifting away from name brands to store-brand items, switching to discount stores or simply buying fewer items like snacks or gourmet foods. The trend has been most visible with food and everyday consumer goods like napkins and paper towels. More Americans are opting for used cars as well, forcing some dealers to provide incentives for new car buyers.
