Return policies vary greatly from store to store, but almost all impose a time limit on returns. If you know you will return an item you received this holiday season, don’t wait, and review the store’s return policy before making the trip.

Want to see what your favorite @michigandot.bsky.social snowplow is up to, like Cousin Eddie? Nearly all MDOT direct forces snowplows have cams that are tied into michigan.gov/Drive (contract agencies, like county road commissions, are not connected to the site at this time).
Not only does the MDOT plowtracker on www.Michigan.gov/Drive show you where state-owned snowplows are, it also shows when plows are applying material to the road surface (including before a winter event to help slow snow and ice from bonding with the pavement).
