📺💊⛽️ Click-n-Ditch, Pill Problem, & Prime Pump Perks
Good morning! ☀️
Today’s sprint through the supply chain is packed with more twists than a pretzel. First up, three industry groups are taking on the FTC’s new "Click to Cancel" rule—because who needs simple subscription cancellations, right? (Apparently, they do! 🙃)
Next, the FDA just put the brakes on over 7,000 bottles of duloxetine due to a sneaky chemical impurity. If your supply chain involves antidepressants, heads up—things might get a little “recall-y.”
And finally, in a move that’ll make your fleet drivers smile, Amazon Prime members can now save 10 cents per gallon at BP, Amoco, and ampm stations. Those savings may not fill the tank, but they’ll definitely fill your day with some much-needed good news.
Buckle up, it’s a wild ride!
“Change before you have to.”
Industry Groups Fight FTC's 'Click to Cancel' Rule
Three industry groups are taking on the FTC's new "Click to Cancel" rule, which is designed to make it easier to cancel subscriptions (yep, that means no more jumping through hoops!). If you signed up online, you should be able to cancel online, simple as that.
But these industry groups aren't happy, saying it’s an overreach and could hurt businesses that rely on those hard-to-escape subscriptions. If the rule passes, it'll affect everything from gym memberships to software tools and fuel cards.
💡 Why It Matters: In transportation and logistics, subscriptions are a huge part of how we operate—fleet management, fuel cards, you name it. This could make it easier for customers to walk away, so we’ve got to be ready.
🔥 Hot Take: Time to double down on value. If canceling is this easy, customer loyalty has to come from what you're offering, not tricky fine print.
FDA Issues Recall for 7,000+ Antidepressant Bottles
The FDA just announced a recall of over 7,000 bottles of duloxetine (often known as Cymbalta) due to contamination with a chemical impurity, N-nitroso-duloxetine, which may increase cancer risk over time. The affected batch expires in December 2024. While the risk is low for short-term use, patients should talk to their healthcare providers about alternatives.
💡 Why It Matters: In the transportation and logistics world, recalls like this can seriously disrupt supply chains, especially in pharmaceuticals. This means more coordination for returns, managing delays, and staying in sync with healthcare clients who rely on your services.
🔥 Hot Take: Pharma recalls are a chance to show how adaptable your supply chain is. It's not just about moving products—it's about being agile when things get tough.
Amazon Prime Adds Fuel Savings Perk for Members

💡 Why It Matters: If you’re in transportation or logistics, these small discounts can make a big difference—especially if you manage a fleet or clock tons of miles.
