The Harry Potter Alliance ran a four-year campaign to get Warner Bros to use ethically sourced cocoa for its official Harry Potter chocolate merchandise.
One of the group's longest-running campaigns has focused on the production of the Harry Potter-branded chocolate merchandise sold in official Potter outlets such as the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando and the Harry Potter Studio tour in Leavesden, Herts.
Because of this, it was possible that child slaves could have been used in the production of Harry Potter chocolate.

How It Works: One of the most irritating things about shopping is buying something right before it goes on sale. Thankfully, you don't have to suffer through that on Amazon: If you end up seeing a price drop after you purchased something, contact Amazon customer service through live chat, phone call, or email and they'll refund you the difference.
Things To Remember: This only applies to items shipped and sold by Amazon. The official policy says it must be done within seven days of your delivery date, but many people have had luck with a refund even after that time.

How It Works: Let’s say you finally saved up to buy that big TV or that cell phone from Amazon, only to see it for a lower price at some other store like Best Buy or Costco. Amazon’s price matching policies for TVs and phones allows you to get a refund for the difference between the new price you saw and the price you paid.
Things To Remember: To get your money back for the difference on a TV or phone, Amazon requires you to contact its customer service by phone or chat 14 days after shipping. If you don't have time to talk to someone, you can also email Amazon for a response and refund information within 24 hours.

How It Works: You could use trade-in program like Gazelle to get some money for your old tablet or phone, but you get a lot more value if you trade it in to Amazon for an Amazon Gift Card. For example, you can trade in your old iPhone 5 for $75 on Gazelle or get yourself $225 in Amazon credit. Amazon even takes other stuff like DVDs, CDs, textbooks, and video games.
Things To Remember: Of course, trading something into Amazon means you're getting an Amazon Gift Card and not actual cash, but it's definitely a no-brainer if you use Amazon to buy a lot. Anything beats leaving your old stuff to collect dust in a closet.
