In the tariff era, minor price fluctuations can be big news, and many people are quick to blame any price increase on tariffs. Just last night, Mashable fact-checked a false alarm about Microsoft raising some Surface laptop prices. Now, it's Walmart's turn.
On April 30, Reuters reported that Walmart had reinstated a $6.99 fee for online grocery delivery and pickup orders under $35 for shoppers in the Walmart+ Assist program. That program lets shoppers who use food stamps, EBT cards, or Medicaid sign up for Walmart+ — a membership that offers various benefits like free pharmacy delivery and discounted gasoline purchases — at a 50 percent reduced price ($49 annually compared to the regular $98). During the COVID crisis, Walmart took away the basket fee on small orders made by Walmart+ Assist members, but the charge was reinstated sometime in April.
Enter The Daily Mail, which reported that "new tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump" were to blame for the change. If Walmart was passing along tariff costs to low-income shoppers, that would certainly be an unusual public relations screwup. However, the company says that's absolutely not the case.
A company spokesperson told Mashable that the basket fee (which is standard practice for most retailers when it comes to online grocery orders) has nothing to do with tariffs and doesn't apply to in-store purchases.
Walmart currently operates 4,605 stores in the United States, and shoppers around the country rely on the retailer for low-cost groceries and everyday necessities. Numerator, a data and tech company, recently published statistics that show fully 94 percent of SNAP shoppers have bought groceries at Walmart in the past year, making it by far the most popular grocery store among food stamp recipients.
U.S. households consume a lot of produce and dry goods imported from around the world, which are affected by new global tariffs implemented by the Trump administration. However, giant companies like Walmart are better positioned to absorb price increases than smaller businesses. Walmart CEO Doug McMillon tried to reassure investors of this in a February earnings call, and the company has announced a new program to help bring more American-made products to its shelves, an initiative called Grow With Us.
How often do you get good news in the mail? As life moves online, the amount of bills and junk mail in our mailboxes is fast approaching 100 percent. However, on occasion, you can still get a random letter from Mom or an Amazon Prime delivery. And you can't ignore the bills forever, unfortunately.
That's why the U.S. Postal Service's Informed Delivery service is so popular. The service sends you a black-and-white photograph of all your incoming mail via email, while also alerting you to USPS package deliveries and status updates. It's an ingenious little program. After all, all your mail has to get scanned and sorted en route, so why not send people a quick email preview of what's on deck for delivery? By keeping an eye on your email, you always know when you actually need to check the mailbox.
Imagine this, but in an app. Credit: Screenshot courtesy of Timothy Beck WerthNow, USPS is reportedly prepping an Informed Delivery app for Android and iOS devices. This week, DroidLife and 9to5 Google reported that a beta test of the app is already underway, with a full mobile app to follow.
Technically, USPS first announced this app in 2024, but since then, the federal government has undergone a bit of a regime change, and federal funding priorities have shifted accordingly. Previously, the postal service has been a target for the Trump administration. The original announcement also said the app would be released in late 2024, which means it's actually ahead of schedule by government program terms.
"The app will send notifications when the USPS Informed Delivery daily digest email is available and when there is an update on a package’s arrival. Customers will be able to use the app to scan tracking numbers or label barcodes to find out the status of inbound or outbound packages," according to the original announcement.
Per 9to5Google, the iOS beta has already been filled, but you can still try to join the Android beta.

Fortnite could be back on iOS in a matter of days.
Though that's not exactly certain right now, it's looking a lot more likely than it did a couple of weeks ago. The official X account for the game posted an update on Friday confirming that it's been submitted to the iOS App Store in the United States for review by Apple. And considering that the Epic Games v Apple case could cost Apple up to $1 billion in app store commissions, that's got to sting a little bit. Epic Games has already been forced to submit Fortnite for review through its European developer account, since Apple nuked Epic’s U.S. developer account.
According to Apple's developer website, most apps are reviewed by Apple within 24 hours. However, given the unique circumstances around Fortnite's return to iOS, it could theoretically take longer in this case.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.In case you haven't been following along, Fortnite has been unavailable to play natively on iPhones since 2020 because of a still-ongoing legal dispute between Apple and developer Epic Games. The short version is that Apple likes to take a 30 percent commission on in-app purchases in iOS apps, and Epic didn't like that. One thing led to another, and now there's a bona fide antitrust case against Apple. That case recently resulted in the company being named in contempt of court, forcing the company to stop collecting fees from off-app purchases. (That's why you can suddenly buy books in the iOS Kindle app.)
As a result of that ruling, Epic now feels comfortable putting Fortnite back on iOS. When the app will get approved is anyone's guess, but we'll let Mashable readers know when it's available again.
Poker Face's case-cracking heroine Charlie Cale (Natasha Lyonne) is no stranger to rest stops, pausing at countless gas stations on her drifting journey across the United States. So what better place to set a Poker Face-themed pop-up than a gas station?
SEE ALSO: 'Poker Face' Season 2 review: Rian Johnson and Natasha Lyonne's murder mystery is a gift for TV lovers everywhereIn honor of Poker Face Season 2's premiere, New York City's Mobil Station & Smacking Burger, located at 51-63 Eighth Avenue, has been transformed into the "Charlie Cale's Back on Her BLSH*T Rest Stop." ("Bullshit," of course, being Charlie's catchphrase whenever she catches someone in a lie.) Fans can visit the activation on May 9 from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET, and on May 10 from noon to 8 p.m. ET.
What's at the New York City Poker Face pop-up? Credit: Belen Edwards / MashableThe Poker Face pop-up aims to put you in Charlie Cale's shoes. First, enter the gas station — as we've seen Charlie do many a time — and grab yourself a (free!) burger. There's both a vegetarian and non-vegetarian option, and each comes with a "side of lies." (Yes, fries are included.)
The gas station also plays clips from Season 2 of Poker Face, along with retro postcards themed around the season's many guest stars. Some we've already met in Season 2's three-episode premiere, like Cynthia Erivo's quintuplet DeDe or John Mulaney's FBI agent Daniel. Others, like characters played by Alia Shawkat and Kumail Nanjiani, remain a mystery... for now.
Credit: Belen Edwards / MashableOutside, attendees can also embrace their inner Charlie by posing with a classic 1968 Plymouth Barracuda just like the one she drives in the show. (Run-ins with crime lords not included.)
Finally, attendees can see whether they'd hold their own with Charlie in an investigation by testing their lie-detecting skills in a game. Event staff will ask a series of true or false questions, and all you have to do to win is catch which ones are fakes — or "bullshit," as Charlie would say. There are few times in life when you can enthusiastically yell "bullshit!" at a stranger and have them be okay with it, so take advantage of this opportunity. Or alternatively, keep your cool like Charlie, channel your inner Lyonne, and casually call them out. It's a win-win situation. Plus, if you triumph in the game, you get a prize, with swag including a themed trucker cap and keychain. I won't spoil any of the questions, but I would recommend brushing up on your Poker Face knowledge ahead of time.
What are you waiting for? Make like Charlie and hit the road.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has plans to take advantage of the "AI boom" to fill glaring workforce gaps, following the layoff of thousands of tax agents.
In a May 6 oversight hearing of the House Appropriations Committee, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent explained that the agency would be leaning into AI solutions in order to accommodate further reductions in the IRS' budget and staff and not fall behind on tax collection. The Treasury's budget proposal includes the removal of another 40,000 jobs.
SEE ALSO: Trump plans to kill Energy Star appliance programAccording to Bessent, proposed cuts to the agency's IT budget could be an opportunity to modernize and restructure the agency's existing IT infrastructure, as the current administration hones in on "wasteful" spending. "I believe, through smarter IT, through this AI boom, that we can use that to enhance collections. And I would expect that collections would continue to be very robust, as they were this year,” he said.
"IRS already uses AI for business functions including operational efficiency, compliance and fraud detection, and taxpayer services," the agency told the Register.
The tax agency has lost about 11 percent of its workforce since Trump appointee Elon Musk set its sights on downsizing the federal government through the Department of Government Efficiency ("DOGE) — Musk has reportedly set a goal of trimming the IRS down by at least 40 percent, with internal memos alerting staff to biweekly Reduction in Force (RIF) notices. According to a recent report by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA), an agency watchdog, the majority of those cuts have affected revenue agents. Between January and March, 31 percent of agents have been terminated or taken a deferred resignation plan. That's around 3,600 auditors now off the job.
Elsewhere in the federal government, agencies are implementing more AI solutions at the behest of the administration's Big Tech leaders. Supplementing President Trump's executive orders and updated policies on the federal government's AI use, generative AI has become new priority items for the Department of Defense, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
In February, Musk announced he was developing an AI chatbot to analyze government contracts and "increase productivity" among U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) employees. DOGE has also reportedly begun staffing a project to place AI agents in government offices. Musk was later accused of directing DOGE to use AI to surveil internal communications between federal workers, including employees at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
If you scroll through Threads and think the only thing that could make the experience more enjoyable is video ads, I have some excellent news for you.
Meta announced at IAB NewFronts, an industry event for social media companies and advertisers, that it will start testing video ads on Threads. Meta began testing other ads earlier this year.
"We’re testing video ads on Threads so businesses can expand their reach and engage with their audience in a familiar way across multiple platforms," Meta wrote in its blog post about the new changes. The company also announced it would be testing Reels trending ads and adding creator marketing solutions on Facebook and Instagram.
SEE ALSO: It's official: Meta's Threads is using 'Threads.com' domain nameThe social media giant has been leaning into short-form video as a quick and effective way to catch users' attention, so it's not entirely surprising that they would add this kind of ad into Threads. After all, we have video ads on Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, and X.
"We recently expanded ads in Threads to all eligible advertisers globally," Meta wrote in its blog post. "Soon, a small number of advertisers will test 16:9 or 1:1 video ad creative delivered in between pieces of organic content in Threads feed to offer businesses a new way to engage with their audience."
This comes just a week after Meta announced at its earnings call that Threads now has 350 million monthly active users and that users on Threads have increased their time spent on the app by 35 percent. A Meta spokesperson told Social Media Today that Threads is "on track to be Meta’s next major social app."
Tariffs have come for another tech product. This time, it's the company Wahoo, which makes bike computers and similar gadgets. The company's first cycling radar has gotten a tariff-related price increase, but you won't notice it until you hit the checkout page. That's where Wahoo seems to have tacked the cost onto the shipping fee, and it's a whopping $50.
According to cycling blog DC Rainmaker, Wahoo buried the tariff surcharge for the TRACKR Radar in the shipping options. The gadget costs $199.99, but when you go to the checkout page, the economy shipping fee now starts at $50 (it goes up to $75 for FedEx two-day shipping and $85 for next-day shipping). So for U.S. customers, the TRACKR Radar will cost you a minimum of $250, plus tax.
By comparison, the cost for shipping in Europe starts at zero euros for economy and ten euros for express shipping. That points to one very likely explanation: the Trump Administration's 145 percent tariffs on exported goods from China has struck again. Mashable has previously reported on tariff-related tech price increases from Anker, Asus, Microsoft/Xbox, Wyze, and popular sex toy brands.
Ray Maker, the blogger and cyclist behind DC Rainmaker, shared these screenshots with Mashable:
The TRACKR Radar will cost at least $50 in shipping fees for U.S. customers. Credit: DC Rainmaker European customers don't have the same problem. Credit: DC Rainmaker SEE ALSO: No, those Chinese factory TikToks won't help you bypass Trump's tariffsThe Wahoo TRACKR Radar is made in China, unlike the Wahoo BOLT 3 and ROAM 3 GPS devices, which are made in Taiwan and also launched this week. As DC Rainmaker noted, the BOLT 3 has a more reasonable minimum shipping cost of $15.
Screenshots of the checkout page show a note saying, "a service charge has been applied to this product. This charge has been applied to the shipping total." Clicking on the hyperlink takes you to a page on the Wahoo site explaining, "due to recent changes to our global supply chain, we find it necessary to implement a service charge on orders shipping from our US Warehouses," noting how the rising costs have specifically impacted delivery costs.
From this standpoint, it makes sense to bake the added cost into the shipping fee. But it might come as jump-scare for U.S. customers towards the end of their purchase. Retailer REI, which also sells the Wahoo TRACKR Radar, has instead just added the cost increase to the overall price of the device, listing it for $250.
Mashable reached out to Wahoo for confirmation that the price increase is tied to tariffs, and we'll update this post if we hear back.

Every now and then, the world blesses us with an opportunity to get money from a giant tech company. This is one of those times.
If you owned a Siri-enabled device and experienced an "unintended Siri activation during a confidential or private communication" between Sept. 17, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2024, you may be eligible for up to $100 in cash from Apple. There's a website where you can read all the specific rules of this class-action settlement and submit claims, with a deadline of July 2. You can submit claims for up to five devices, and there's a payout cap of up to $20 per device, so you could theoretically get as much as $100 from this settlement. Of course, submitting a claim doesn't guarantee you will receive money.
SEE ALSO: Apple is working on a chip for smart glasses, report claimsThis is the conclusion of a lawsuit that started in 2019 and ended in January of this year, with Apple agreeing to pay out a $95 million settlement for Siri (and third-party contractors) listening in on private conversations. Apple claims it only gave Siri recordings to those contractors for quality-control testing and never sold anyone's conversations to advertisers.
"Apple has never used Siri data to build marketing profiles, never made it available for advertising, and never sold it to anyone for any purpose," the company said in a statement at the time.
Regardless, some Apple customers can at least get some cash out of it now.

SAVE $90: As of May 9, the Bose Ultra Open earbuds are on sale for just $209 instead of $299 at Amazon in the Diamond 60th anniversary edition color option. That's a savings of 30%.

If you're not a fan of the design or fit and want to try something a bit different, the Bose Ultra Open's unique design might be right up your alley — and they're currently on sale for 30% off.
As of May 9, the Bose Ultra Open earbuds in the Diamond 60th Anniversary Edition colorway are on sale for just $209 at Amazon. That's $90 off their usual cost and just $10 away from their best price on record.
The Ultra Open earbuds keep you in touch with your surroundings while you listen to music, audiobooks, or podcasts. Each earbud loops around the edge of your ear like an earring cuff, rather than going inside your ear canal. The open design (hence the name) makes them a particularly good option for runners, cyclists, or commuters looking to stay aware and alert.
Mashable's reviewer RJ Andersen writes, "Though we were skeptical at first, these buds are extremely comfortable and score top marks for battery life, spatial audio, and sound quality."
The buds clock in at over seven hours of play time and the included charging case offers another 2.5 full charges. Our reviewer found the battery life to be crazy good and right on the money with what Bose claimed.
If you're not into the AirPods-style earbuds and want to try something a little different, the Bose Ultra Open are in a category of their own. Plus, they're $90 cheaper than usual, so why not give them a shot?

The Roku itself is about the size of an Apple TV, so it's unobtrusive, and it comes with a Roku remote that you can use to control your streams via voice or dedicated buttons. The Roku Voice Remote Pro even has a lost remote finder if you happen to misplace it.
This is a much more powerful, full-featured version of whatever Roku you may have been using prior, or other streaming device, with more reasons to make it your main platform if you aren't planning on heading out with it.
