🍽️ In Portland, officials are urging caution as outdoor dining ramps up—warning that poorly maintained curbside patios could pose health risks and even jeopardize permits.

🛒 A question getting attention: Are retailers like Walmart shorting customers on product weight? We talked about what consumers should watch for and how to protect themselves.

🍕 And a feel-good story to close—an elderly pizza delivery driver received nearly $50,000 in tips after going above and beyond for a customer. His humility—refusing extra money—struck a chord and went viral.
