When you are sitting around with nothing to do, lots of consumers mindlessly pick up their phone and scroll on any one of their social media apps. That is why Dabbl wanted to optimize on this downtime. Dabbl is a new app and website that allows consumers to interact with branded content in exchange for points and cash at some of their favorite retailers.
Susan O'Neal is the CEO and co-founder of Dabbl. She joins Cheddar to explain how the company is re-imagining the way digital ads should work. O'Neal says that millennials don't hate ads, but rather expect organic experiences. By allowing consumers to opt into their platform, engagement is higher than the average digital ad.
Currently, Dabbl is available on Android and online. O'Neal says an iPhone app is soon on the way.
At 100 years old, the Goodyear Blimp is an ageless star in the sky. The 246-foot-long airship will be in the background of the Daytona 500 — flying roughly 1,500 feet above Daytona International Speedway, actually — to celebrate its greatest anniversary tour. Even though remote camera technologies are improving regularly and changing the landscape of aerial footage, the blimp continues to carve out a niche. At Daytona, with the usual 40-car field racing around a 2½-mile superspeedway, views from the blimp aptly provide the scope of the event.

It’s a chicken-and-egg problem: Restaurants are struggling with record-high U.S. egg prices, but their omelets, scrambles and huevos rancheros may be part of the problem.

Fast-food chains like Starbucks and Wendy's added more egg-filled breakfast items. In normal times, egg producers could meet the demand. But a bird flu outbreak that has forced them to slaughter their flocks is making supplies scarcer and pushing up prices. Some restaurants like Waffle House have added a surcharge to offset their costs.

The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
