Good morning, Southfield.

Walmart announced its early Black Friday deals starting November 14 through 16 with sales available in stores and online, and Walmart+ members will get five hours early access beginning at 7 p.m. November 13—this sale is part of a three-part event series that will include a sale from November 25 to 30 and a Cyber Monday online event on December 1. The company said the deals will offer discounts up to 60% off and gifts under $20—providing shoppers a head start on holiday savings.

Southfield held a Veterans Day ceremony on Nov.

7 that featured speakers, a wreath-laying, a 21-gun salute, and a tribute where veterans placed roses in a vase. Mayor Ken Siver honored 91-year-old Korean War veteran James Elias Jackson with a certificate (he served as a combat infantry trainer and worked 49 years for General Motors).

A local lawmaker proposed a bill to ban weight loss pills and muscle supplements for minors by requiring buyers to show an ID (posted November 11th), saying manufacturers targeted young people through social media.

The proposal is expected to be debated by lawmakers (further details pending) in the coming days.
