Cyber Monday shoppers may also want to consider refurbished gifts.Monday, U.S. PIRG released its “Fixed for the Holidays” update. It found the variety has expanded greatly since the last report two years ago.There are options like refurbished smartphones, vacuums or professional cameras.“The deals and the quality have gotten a lot better, and in fact some of the refurbishers have told us that they've seen a significant increase in their operations over the course of the pandemic,” said Nathan Proctor, Director of U.S. PIRG's Right to Repair campaign.Refurbished products can be a great alternative for new devices that are hard to find amid manufacturing disruptions caused by the pandemic. Plus, the savings can be significant. Most of the time, they’re even better than the discounts on Black Friday.Buying refurbished is also a green option because it cuts waste.Many of the big retailers do their own refurbishing. There's also certain websites U.S. PIRG recommends, like The Store, Back Market, and Gazelle. They have extensive quality checks and great coverage options.“We recommend some of the retailers we do because the warranties are so good. I mean you can get a product with a longer warranty from the refurbisher than the new equipment manufacturer provided,” said Proctor.When shopping refurbished, learn how the site differentiates its products. Then, decide what balance you're looking for.Some products may be less expensive but have more cosmetic issues like scratches and dings. Others were returned without ever being opened.Look for brands with a reputation for higher quality.A good rule of thumb is if it was cheaper when it was new, it's higher risk as refurbished. 1703

CLEVELAND — A skin cancer survivor is baffled after she was ticketed for tinted windows, despite telling the officer the tint was for health reasons, and she said the city would not work with her on a solution.Parma Heights, Ohio resident Shannon Coughlin said she was running an errand in Brooklyn, Ohio on Sept. 14 when she was pulled over by a police officer.Body cam footage obtained by WEWS shows the exchange between Coughlin and the officer.“The reason I stopped you [is] your windows are too dark,” the officer can be heard saying in the video.Later in the video, Coughlin explained why she had to have the tint installed — she used to have skin cancer.She showed us pictures from her past surgery.“I told him I had the tint put on there because I was diagnosed a couple years ago with skin cancer, and the doctor had said that I should take any precautions that I could,” she said. “I’m just trying to avoid getting another scar on my neck.”The officer told her she would need to keep a note from her doctor in her car while driving. She didn’t know.“[I was] shocked,” she said. “Beyond shocked.”He also told her if she had documentation, she could bring it to court.Later that month, her doctor wrote her a note that said, in part, the “tint is considered medically necessary.” Skin cancer survivor Shannon Coughlin got a letter from her doctor after the ticket from Brooklyn Police was written. She knows now to carry this with her in case she gets stopped again.Between a fine and court costs, Coughlin faced a 0 ticket for tinted windows. She said she asked the mayor’s court clerk if she can schedule a meeting to speak with the mayor or another city official to discuss the ticket and her reason for needing the tint.Coughlin said the city told her the only time she could speak with an official was during her court session.WEWS checked with the mayor’s court clerk, who confirmed that the only time to discuss a ticket is when coming in during a court date.Coughlin said she had just gotten a new job, and she didn't think going to court to fight the 0 fine was worth the impact on her job. She waived her right to a court hearing and paid the ticket.“No one was listening or giving me any kind of chance,” she said. “I still had to pay the fine.”WEWS requested an on-camera interview with Brooklyn Mayor Katie Gallagher about Coughlin’s incident. She declined but did answer questions via email, which you can read in full at the end of this story.Her statement said, in part, “[Coughlin] did not reach out to my office about this matter at any point.”“The Brooklyn patrol officer wrote the ticket based on the information he had available to him at the time of the stop, which did not include any medical information,” Gallagher said. “Ms. Coughlin then paid the ticket instead of coming to court and presenting the note she received from her doctor after the ticket was written.”WEWS also reached out to Brooklyn Police Chief Scott Mielke, who said in Coughlin’s case, he would have fielded questions about the tinted window ticket.Gallagher also said the city’s administration sets the waiver schedule with help from the magistrate, police, Ohio law and, in part, what other communities do.WEWS looked at public court fees and fines for 10 other similar sized cities, including: Beachwood, Bedford Heights, Macedonia, Oberlin, Ravenna, Seven Hills, Sheffield Lake, Wlloughby Hills, University Heights and Vermillion.Not one specifically lists tinted windows in their waiver schedules. Brooklyn does.WEWS also compared the 0 fine to other violations in Brooklyn. For example, a driver can get into an accident with property damage and it costs just as much.Some traffic violations in the city that have smaller fines than tinted windows. This includes driving 15 miles per hour over the speed limit, child restraint issues, driving an unsafe vehicle and trick riding.Gallagher told us “…any traffic violation can be considered serious.”Coughlin believes she should’ve received a warning for her tinted windows. She also believes she should have had a chance to speak with city officials about her need for the tint.“I don’t think getting ticketed for having something medically necessary was at all deserved,” Coughlin said.You can read Gallagher’s responses to questions below:What part of the city's government comes up with the waiver schedule? I have been told the administration sets those fees but I haven't gotten confirmation on that just yet. The administration establishes the waiver schedule with consultation with from the magistrate and clerk of courts.How are they determined? Court costs are determined first, and then appropriate fines are added.Are there comparisons to other like-communities and then you adapt to fit your needs? Other communities' waiver schedules are considered in part, yes.Is there a rule or something in the Ohio Revised Code that helps guide you on where to set the waiver fees? The Revised Code establishes the maximum fines for misdemeanor and traffic offenses based on the level of offense, and we do not exceed those.Does the police department help with setting the fees? The department assists in gathering information for the administration's review of a proposed waiver schedule.We did notice the tinted window violation comes with a 0 total fee. That total includes in court costs and an fine. We also noticed other violations like driving left side of road, right of way to public safety vehicles, etc. have the same fee. Are those violations equal in severity to tinted windows in your mind? Depending on the circumstances of a particular incident (as suggested by the newly enacted H.B. 95 [legislature.ohio.gov] ), any traffic violation can be considered serious, and as with every mayor's and municipal court, waiver schedules take that into account. It is also why people who do not wish to waive their right to appear have the right to come to court to speak to a magistrate.Other violations in the waiver schedule show speeding up to 15 mph over the given limit, stop/yield signs, traffic lights/red light, one-way street, seatbelt passenger, driver and a child restraint are all less than the tinted windows violation. Do you view tinted windows as a higher violation than those moving and/or safety constraint violations?  My prior response addresses this question.There are also violations called "trick riding" and "unsafe vehicle" that are at 5 and 5, respectively. Do you also view these as violations not equal to the tinted windows violation? My prior response addresses this question. 6674

Counterfeit items are being sold by third-party vendors on the top ecommerce sites, according to the U.S. Government Accountability Office. The GAO released a study Tuesday showing that even top online merchants such as Amazon and Walmart are subject to having counterfeit items posted on their sites. In some cases, the counterfeits can be harmful, the GAO reported.  The GAO purchased 47 items — a mixture of shoes, travel mugs, cosmetics and phone chargers. The items were bought from third-party sellers on Walmart, eBay, Amazon, Sears Marketplace and Newegg. Of the 47 items, 20 were counterfeit, including all 13 of the Urban Decay cosmetics purchased. "From travel mugs to cosmetics, counterfeit goods harm the U.S. economy and can pose a threat to consumers," the GAO reported.  829

City of San Diego workers on the taxpayer dime were doubling the hours worked on their timecards and getting paid for it anyway. The revelation is part of a damaging new audit set to be released Friday. "Quite frankly, we're appalled," Johnnie Perkins, a city deputy chief operating officer, said in a press conference called Thursday. The audit found the a unit of 17 workers in a unit of public utilities department were working an average 3.6 hours per day, but putting eight hours on their timecards - and supervisors were approving them. The unit is charged with replacing faulty cement water meter covers and water meter boxes at homes and business across the city of San Diego. "We need to make sure that we're changing what our expectations are not just for those that are on the front line repairing our lids and boxes," Perkins said, "but for our midlevel and senior managers, what do we expect in terms of how they are going to be evaluated or held accountable for their performance, or in this case, lack thereof?"The investigation comes just months after City Auditor Eduardo Luna's department found that the public utilities department sent erroneously high water bills to nearly 3,000 San Diego families. Perkins said reforms are currently being installed. The announcement came one day after city public utilities director Vic Bianes announced his retirement, effective Thursday. Matt Vespi, an assistant director in the finance department, takes over on an interim basis.The city plans to have a permanent replacement by the end of the year.   In a statement, Mayor Kevin Faulconer said the public utilities department needs to earn back the trust of its customers."The Mayor has called for sweeping reforms that include looking into every aspect of the department’s operations and changing how things are done to better serve the public," he said. In the case of the inflated timecards, Perkins declined to say how much was lost, what the workers earned, and exactly how long it was going on. He promised taxpayers that despite the troubles, the water supply is safe, and that the city would get to the bottom of it. "We own this," he said. "If there's an issue we're going to own it, and we're going to be held accountable because it's the ratepayers and the taxpayers of San Diego who we work for, and we cannot forget that."  2439
