🎙️ Consumers Have Rights and Protections

Regardless of the price of an item or product, there’s nothing more frustrating than being a disappointed consumer. This is especially true if it’s difficult to get any kind of satisfaction from the retailer or seller. However, consumers do have rights. K-State Research and Extension family resource specialist Elizabeth Kiss (kish) says she’s on a mission to educate consumers about their rights because they often think there’s nothing they can do.
