| 2022 is shaping up to be a record breaking year for recalls, with more than 1 billion announced as of July according to a report from Sedgwick, a business solutions provider. |
| But while recalls of items ranging from cars to food might be concerning, the uptick reflects the improved technology that allows government watchdogs to get a product off the market before people are injured or killed, says Duke law professor Nita Farahany. |
| USA TODAY has a detailed database of safety notices that consumers can check for information on everything from medicines to toys. |
Beyond the holidays, many parents struggle year round |
| Dawn Zephier and seven of her children and grandchildren have been homeless. |
| The family now has stable housing, but their continuing struggle to keep the lights on and food on the table shines a spotlight on the herculean challenges facing many Americans who want a better life, but are mired in poverty. |
| "It's hard on them,'' Zephier says of her two teenage sons who must work to support the family and are juggling fast food jobs with their senior year studies. "I can see it in their faces.'' |
📰 More stories you shouldn't miss 📰 |
| Black Friday or Cyber Monday? Two of the biggest shopping days of the year are here and you might be wondering which offers the best deals. Hint: If you spot a good bargain, grab it whenever you find it. |
| Store credit cards may not be worth it. Those introductory offers eventually run out and you could end up with serious sticker shock down the road. |
| Another student loan reprieve. President Joe Biden says he will extend the pause on repaying student loans up to June 30th, 2023 as litigation challenging his debt forgiveness plan lingers. |
