Consumer News: 41% of Gen Z turn to AI chatbots for support during a mental health crisis

AI is becoming a source of support: 41% of Gen Z adults who experienced a mental health or substance use crisis said they turned to an AI chatbot for support.

Many people struggle in silence: 25% waited at least a year before telling anyone they were struggling, while 90% pretended they were fine when asked.

AI has benefits and risks: Chatbots can make it easier to open up and encourage people to seek professional help, but they can't replace licensed mental health professionals.

When someone is going through a mental health crisis, reaching out for help isn't always easy. Some people worry about being judged, don't know where to turn, or simply aren't ready to talk about what they're experiencing.

Consumer News: Subscription services are straining budgets and overdrafting bank accounts

More than a third of subscribers (36%) have had a subscription payment overdraft their bank account, while 41% say subscriptions have forced them to cut back on other expenses or savings.

Forgotten subscriptions, rising prices, and unused services are adding up, with 81% of subscribers paying for a forgotten, unused, or duplicate subscription in the past year.

DealSeek co-founder Trey Donovan shares practical tips for auditing subscriptions, avoiding free-trial charges, and deciding which recurring expenses are worth keeping.

And for some people, the consequences go beyond simply spending more than they intended. A new survey from DealSeek found that more than a third of subscribers (36%) have had a subscription payment overdraft their bank account, while 41% say subscription costs have forced them to cut back on other spending or made it harder to save money and cover essential expenses.

Consumer News: Food Lion brings back Thanksgiving meal deal for under

Food Lion's Thanksgiving meal deal returns Nov. 11, offering enough food for 10 people for less than $40.

The bundle includes a 14-pound turkey, traditional holiday sides, Hawaiian rolls, and two frozen pies.

Shoppers can get the same advertised deal in stores or through Food Lion's online shopping and delivery partners.

Putting together a Thanksgiving dinner can get expensive, especially when you're feeding a larger group. Between the turkey, side dishes, and desserts, grocery costs can add up quickly.

Food Lion is hoping to make things a little easier on holiday budgets with the return of its Thanksgiving Meal Deal. The grocery chain announced that shoppers can get enough ingredients to serve 10 people for less than $40, bringing the promotion back at the same price as last year.
