KineticKaleidoscope+FollowCHECK your gift cards before buying!I just bought a $50 Vanilla Visa card for my niece. She tried to use it online, and the balance was $0. Here is the scam: Thieves steal the cards, carefully slice open the package, scratch the code, record it, and put a new sticker over it. They put it back on the shelf. Once you load money at the register, their software drains it instantly. Run your finger over the barcode. If it feels bumpy or like a sticker has been placed on top, DO NOT BUY IT. #GiftCardScam #RetailTheft #HolidayShopping #ScamAlert #MoneyTips20Share
williambrown+FollowThe "Family Size" bag of chips is now a "Snack Size." The Shrinkflation Grinch is real. πI started buying snacks for a holiday party and I swear the packaging is gaslighting me. I bought a bag of Tostitos and a box of crackers, paying the same price (actually 50 cents more) than last year. Opened the bag? Itβs 60% air. The cracker sleeve is noticeably shorter. Itβs insulting that companies think we won't notice. Has anyone else spotted a product that has drastically shrunk in size recently? Name and shame them in the comments! π #Shrinkflation #RipOff #GroceryHaul #Inflation #ConsumerRights #SnackTime #ScamAlert00Share
