Massachusetts Rebates Go Out Today

By Jaybeau Jones
CARACAS, VENEZUELA - JUNE 26: A customer pays with US dollars at a bakery shop on June 26, 2019 in Caracas, Venezuela. Everyday, more Venezuelans use American dollar notes to buy groceries, pay a hair cut or fill the tank of their cars and motorbikes. As IMF forecasts a 10 million percent inflation for 2019 in Venezuela, using dollars is a way to protect savings. Today, one US Dollar is worth 6,359 bolivares soberanos according to Venezuela Central Bank. Due to official restrictions, most people get dollars in the black market at higher rates.

What Is 62 F?

According to CBS Boston:
