nightmare on the roads and in the sky, with more than 1,000 flights cancelled. our transportation correspondent gio benitez starts us off and has the latest. good morning, gio. >> gio: hey, robin. good morning. yeah, it was a messy day for travel wednesday. more than 1,000 flight cancellations, like you said. 7,500 delays. la guardia getting the worst of it. it was felt in so much of the country. overnight a powerful nor easter slamming the east coast creating a dangerous morning commute for millions. torrential rains wreaking havoc on roads across new york and new jersey. farther north, snow creating treacherous conditions from maine to massachusetts. the storm turning deadly in pennsylvania. an 81-year-old woman killed after strong winds toppled a tree onto her car. >> it was devastating. it was a big tree. it fell right across her car. >> gio: the massive downpour flooding the state. this park submerged by water. more than 100,000 customers

first responders digging through the rubble of collapsed buildings, looking for more than 100 trapped. nearly 40 remain unaccount ted for. overnight, demolition beginning on teetering buildings deemed a safety risk, many sleeping in tents outdoors, the walls of their homes cracked. this man saying they don't dare to go home. the emergency response center there saying more than 900 people have been evacuated. the 7.4 magnitude tremors felt across the island, buildings collapsing on their foundation. watch as nurses cling to newborn babies as the clinic begins to shake. morning commuters holding onto what they could. the quake rocked this elevated train car, and dash camera video circulating online showing large boulders going down the road, a boulder crushing one car. the violent shaking sending things flying off the shelves. officials saying at least ten people have died, more than 1,000 injured. intense search and rescue operations launched immediately.

one man holding a red flag out his window to signal for help. rescue workers and cherry pickers getting people to safety however they can, climbing tilted stairs, holding onto walls, walking down slanted hallways and partially collapsed builds. first responders scaling giant piles of rubble, carrying a stretcher to rescue this man and his truck blocked on the highway. and the success rescuers have had overnight in accounting for some of the missing is encouraging but the work is not over yet. the challenges persist. in the next couple of days, rain is expected. robin, that could impact the rescue effort. >> robin: it certainly could, marcus. thank you very much. now we have the fallout after the deadly israeli air strike that killed seven aid workers in gaza. the incident is threatening to make the humanitarian crisis there even worse. britt clennett is on the scene in jerusalem. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, robin. yeah, pressure is mounting on israel ahead of president biden's expected call with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu.

it's their first direct contact since the air strike that killed seven aid workers including a dual u.s. citizen. this morning renowned chef jose andres speaking out after seven of his staffers bringing aid into gaza were killed by an israeli air strike. >> they were targeted. we were in an area controlled by idf. >> reporter: andres claiming the idf targeted car by car humanitarian vehicles. >> this was over 1.5, 1.8 kilometers with a very defined humanitarian convoy that had signs. we had signs. >> reporter: prime minister netanyahu said israel deeply regrets the incident. the vehicles were clearly marked. these were three cars in a row travelling in a convoy that were targeted. what do you say to that? >> that's absurd. the last thing we would want in the world is to endanger civilian lives. this war is a complex war. the incident happened in the

middle of the night. it's a complex situation. it should not have happened. >> reporter: this satellite shows the vehicles on the road stretching a mile and a half apart. >> if we were targeted, i need to understand that this was not by somebody that decided just to kill us because, i don't know? maybe because i made a tweet that was very strong against president netanyahu. i don't know. >> reporter: among those killed, a palestinian, three british citizens, an australian, a polish national and a dual u.s. can dadian citizen jacob flickinger. now, biden's call with netanyahu is coming as tensions in the region flair up. israel on high alert after iran vowed revenge after an attack that killed one of its top commanders. the idf now pausing all of its combat units amid the possible escalation. george? >> george: let's get more on the president's call with mary bruce. good morning, mary.

>> reporter: good morning. in just a few hours president biden will be speaking with prime minister netanyahu in what is expected and likely to be a very tense call. look, president biden we know is outraged. he says he is heart broken by these killings. in his strongest rebuke yet, he accused israel of simply not doing enough to protect civilians. we are told he is expected to take that message directly to netanyahu in this phone call. but so far the prime minister has largely ignored the u.s.' warning. president biden's sharp condemnation has not been met by any change in u.s. policy. he's been resisting calls to put limits or conditions on the weapons that the u.s. sends to israel to fight this war, something critics say is contradictory and hypocritical. the big question now, will the president change course? will these deadly strikes be a breaking point? michael? >> michael: thank you for that, mary. now the latest on the car crash involving kansas city chiefs wide receiver rashee rice. rice issuing a statement,

apologizing and accepting responsibility for his role in the accident. mireya villarreal has details. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, michael. dallas police confirm they have spoken with the super bowl champion rashee rice. he has admitted, sources tell me, that he was driving the lombourghini that was involved in that major accident. but as of right now, there are still a lot of questions about what happened that day. new this morning, rising nfl star rashee rice breaking his silence with questions swirling about his involvement in that six-car crash that shut a major highway down. the kansas city chiefs wide receiver posting on instagram, i take full responsibility for my part in this matter and will continue to cooperate with the necessary authorities. i sincerely apologize to everyone impacted in saturday's accident. that accident captured by another driver's dash cam. a corvette and lambourghini

speeding down a busy highway before losing control. several drivers struggling to regain control of their own vehicles including kayla quinn, who had her 4-year-old son in the back seat. >> the impact was crazy. we could have flew out. >> reporter: authorities say the occupants of the vehicles then ran from the scene without stopping to determine if anyone needed medical help or providing their information. the investigation is ongoing. an attorney for classic lifestyle, the company that leased the car to rice tells abc news the 23-year-old was the only allowed driver under their rental agreement and that rice allegedly contacted the company after the incident. >> first thing they said to my client, is i'm going to take care of it. i'm sorry. these are vehicles anywhere between $250,000 and pushing $1 million.

>> reporter: dallas police now conducting multiple interviews with witnesses, victims and others possibly involved in saturday's crash as they try to determine exactly what happened, who was involved and how. sources tell me right now police are focusing on the injuries of the other drivers involved. that will determine what, if any, charges rice might face in this situation. robin? >> robin: you're staying on top of it for us. thank you. now the message of hope, as remarkable patient wakes up in his own bed this morning. erielle reshef is here with more on the first human to receive a pig kidney. everyone is so excited about this. >> they are, for good reason. remarkable is the perfect word, robin. the patient is out of the hospital. he has a long road of recovery, rehabilitation and monitoring ahead, but his operation was historic and his progress in the days since unprecedented. this morning rick slayman is waking up in his own bed after

receiving the world's first successful transplant of a pig kidney into a human. the 62-year-old discharged from massachusetts general hospital saying his recovery is progressing smoothly, just 18 days after the ground breaking operation. >> it was a high wire act in the o.r. >> reporter: at the time, doctors hailing the four hour long surgery as a success, and their patient a hero. slayman was fighting end stage kidney disease, under going dialysis for seven years before receiving his first transplanted kidney from a human donor which failed last year. doctors emotional as they reflected on the achieve achievement. >> my deepest gratitude goes to our agh team. >> reporter: more than 90,000 people are on the wait list for a kidney in the u.s., but less

than 16,000 are transplanted annually. on average, 13 patients die every day while they wait. >> the opportunity for future transplantation could save a lot of lives. two things will be monitoring for complications related to immuno suppression. his supressed immune system, for rejection. but we have to watch for complications, which are really infections and malignancies post transplant. >> reporter: slayman saying today marks a new beginning not just for me but for them as well. clinical research trials will be needed to determine if this surgery is a safe and effective model. with many patients waiting for years for a transplant, doctors say the prospect of using this type of transplant procedure more widely could provide hope to millions. slayman saying he has been waiting his entire life for this moment. now it is one of the best moments of his life. >> robin: you see the emotions

from the doctors there. >> michael: thank you very much, erielle. coming up, we have the new warning about tax scams in our exclusive with the head of the irs. >> george: plus deadly elephant attack. an american tourist killed on safari. we'll tell you what we know this morning. >> robin: and the idaho suspect murder trial. will the suspects lawyers get the case moved? dan abrams is gonna weigh in on that. but first ginger. >> ginger: the east coast is not alone. the west coast has got their very own storms and plenty of alerts. it's making its way down the coast. the high wind alerts are what smothers them. nevada, parts of arizona, utah, could see gusts of 50 plus miles per hour. we will get some snow in the sierra nevada which is at a great place. they've had a good year for that. and then this storm moves east. if you're traveling for the eclipse, especially through the plains, down to dallas, know this. through the weekend you could have some storms. monday evening after the eclipse could see severe weather. we'll be tracking that. local weather in 30 seconds.

caught on camera. an american tourist was killed while on safari in zambia when an elephant approached the van carrying the group. foreign correspondent james longman has details. good morning, james. >> reporter: good morning, michael. this was a really scary attack. in the video, you can hear voices of people in the truck as they realize the elephant is charging towards them through the brush. very sadly all this resulted in the death of an american woman. >> hey! hey! >> reporter: it's a terrifying moment a safari turned fatal. abc news confirming a 79-year-old was killed and anothered injured when a bull elephant charged their tour bus, lifting the vehicle then overturning it. >> oh my goodness. >> reporter: authorities are now investigating this video. watch as the elephant begins to trail safari goers through the park. it's matching the truck's speed. then seemingly coming to a stop.

>> hey hey hey! >> reporter: the guide on board yelling, trying to scare off the five ton animal. with six people on board, soon face to face with the giant creature. using his tusks to flip the vehicle, and those inside, appearing to flip it once more. the after math of the attack seen in this photograph. gail dying at the scene. this photo taken earlier that day. her friends telling our affiliate the trip was supposed to be her last big adventure. >> she was going to be 80 and she felt like she would start slowing down. to be honest, i don't know if she slowed down. she wouldn't be traveling as far probably. >> reporter: safari company, wilderness, said our guys are all extremely trained and experienced but, sadly, the terrain and vegetation was such that the guide's route became blocked and he could not move the vehicle out of harms way quickly enough. >> resorted to the next best thing, which is yell, try to

stand up to the elephant. unfortunately, i think that elephant had reached a point in its rage that that was no longer going to be effective. >> reporter: this came within weeks of another scare in south africa. a bull elephant lifting this safari vehicle several feet in the air twice, dropping the truck and those inside both times. the tour operator telling abc news, some tourists came too close to the elephant irritating the creature, who then became aggressive. still studies suggest fatal safaris are generally rare and can happen when tourists are not following the rules. >> the problems we have today, tourists will try to get their guides to get closer than they should be. try to get that picture. don't do that. respect wild life from a distance. >> reporter: now gail madson was going to turn 80 this year. photographs from her on the trip show she was having so much fun.

her friends say this was meant to be her last big adventure. attacks like these are super rare even if, as on this occasion, they end tragically. guys? >> george: thank you very much. we are going to turn to the idaho college murders case. a hearing today as defense attorneys argue bryan kohberger cannot get a fair trial in the county where the murders happened. we're going to talk to dan abrams after this report from eva pilgrim. good morning, eva. >> reporter: a critical moment in the university of idaho murder case. a hearing that would help determine where the trial will happen. his lawyer arguing it's impossible to find an unbiased jury locally, asking a judge to move the trial to a different county. that lawyer hiring a consultant who surveyed some 400 potential jurors in the area, saying the findings showed they would not be fair and impartial. the prosecution saying this case has gotten even international attention and moving the trial wouldn't make a difference. kohberger is charged with murdering four students at their off campus house. the judge entered a not guilty plea on his behalf.

he is expected in court today. as for the trial, no word on when it will take place. guys? >> george: eva, thanks. let's bring in our chief legal analyst dan abrams. just explain what's going on here. >> this is really an interesting question. right? the defense has been calling prospective jurors. this is not jury selection. we're not there yet, right? this is just reaching out to people in the community. they're trying to prove that the community has been so hopelessly biased that they need to move the case. they've been calling people to find out, what do you think, etc? prosecutors are saying there's a gag order in place. you're not allowed to do this. you're disseminating information in violation of the gag order. the defense says, no, we're not. this is just stuff that's out there publicly already. we're just trying to get as much information as we can to try to support our argument to move the case. >> michael: do they fear that could taint the jury pool? >> right. exactly. that's what the prosecutors are arguing, right?

prosecutors are arguing this, is a, a violation of the gag order and, b, could potentially taint the jury. and by the way, the expert concedes some of the information he's been providing isn't true. literally, making calls to people saying, this was said in the media. did you hear that this was said in the media? and it wasn't true. right? they're trying to assess how much false information as well. we haven't had access to the exact information. you can tell from the court filings the sorts of questions that were being asked. >> robin: the bigger issue here, change of venue. >> i think there ought to be a change of venue. you're talking about a small community with a case that is enormous, that everyone in the community has opinions about already. the prosecutors' argument is, come on. when are you going to move this case to nearby where people aren't going to have heard about the case? but if there's a case for a change of venue, this is probably it. i don't know that this survey is going to make or break that fundamental question. >> george: murders were a year and a half ago. why is this taking so long?

>> look, death penalty case. right to a speedy trial belongs to the defendant. if the defendant decides we want to take some more time here, i'm okay staying behind bars if we have more time to prepare our case. that would typically be allowed in a death penalty case. so not surprising that the case is taking a long time. >> robin: that's been the case here. >> absolutely. well over a year and a half. i wouldn't be surprised if we continued for faw months. >> robin: as always, dan, appreciate your insight. we do. coming up we have a new warning about buying used cars online. and coming up next, with tax day less than two weeks away, scammers are ramping up their attempts to trick you. rebecca has what you need to know when we come back. back. so i hired body doubles to help me out. splurgy tina loves a hotel near rodeo drive. oh tina!

it's taken me 10, 15 minutes to calm them down to tell them, no, the irs does not do that. >> rebecca: the irs tells us it will not contact you by telephone, text message or initiate contact by e-mail. >> filing season is when scam artists come out of the woodwork and are most aggressive. you should be conscious that there is a likelihood that someone may e-mail, text or call you pretending to be the irs. >> rebecca: the irs commissioner told me the odds of the irs even reaching out you at all are very low and they will never send urgent language. if you think you've been targeted by a scam, report it to the irs at >> robin: what's your bottom line here? >> rebecca: you're not going to hear from the irs except potentially in mail. the old fashioned way. and just ignore it, ignore the calls, ignore the e-mails and

before. and they are using things like fake websites with madeup vehicle reports to steal personal information and money. and they're targeting shoppers earlier than usual in the buying process so officials are warning customers to be cautious from the get go. they're also using social media sites more often to target people, posting fake pictures and elaborate stories to explain cheap prices. so what can you do? experts say verify the seller independently, if you can. use a credit card for online purchases. of course, be weary of any prices that seem too good to be true. good reminder here if you're falling victim to a scam, make sure to report it so you can hopefully prevent it from happening to someone else. michael? >> michael: too good to be true, it probably is. thank you for that. now a new study on the benefits of walking while working. researchers have found that from sitting to a standing work

>> michael: welcome back, everybody. with our gma cover story, an exclusive first look at a report about video games, finding that some may leave players vulnerable to theft. elizabeth schulze is here with details. good morning, elizabeth. >> good morning, michael. more than 200 million americans regularly play video games including three of four kids under 18. this report is sounding the alarm about how gamers don't always have the same protections on their money in the virtual world as they would in the real world. this morning a new warning for americans who spent $57 billion every year in the virtual world of video games. >> we want to make sure it's not a haven for fraud, scams and abuse. >> reporter: the head of the cfpd, the government agency charged with safe guarding american finances. he gave gma an exclusive first look at a report highlighting how using virtual currencies to buy coveted items such as vehicle, weapons or characters

could put real money at risk. >> what's pretty obvious is that their financial incentives are for players to spend as much as possible. i think sometimes it's confusing as to what's real money and what's fake money. >> reporter: it's a lesson michael and jennifer's 8-year-old son joey learned when he unintentionally racked up $4,000 in charges on his parents credit card. what was it like looking at that statement and seeing all of those charges? >> i mean, i lost my mind. >> reporter: after months of trying, they finally got a full refund. but the new report warns gaming accounts often lack the security and protection of traditional bank accounts, leaving them open to hacking, account theft, scams and unauthorized transactions. >> when we have a fraudulent charge on our credit card, we can fight it. many times you see on these gaming platforms there's really just finger pointing or not really taking accountability.

>> reporter: the entertainment software association which represents the video game industry tells us, we are committed to providing players and parents with transparent information and tools to make appropriate choices for themselves and their families, including the ability to manage in-game purchases, limit or block communications with other players and manage when and for how long their children can play. what would you say to critics who say it's not really the cfpd's role to be looking at the video game industry? >> i think we should look at this as traditional video game. it's an immersive world, where there is its own economy. we want to make sure that it's not just a way to side step existing rules. >> reporter: okay. keep in mind there are options to turn on those parental controls. you can block or restrict the money your kids spend while playing video games. also consider linking your child's account to a prepaid gift card instead of to your credit or debit card, guys. >> george: thank you.

turning to the dietary trend known as nutrient sequencing that's getting attention online. also in the new york times. chief medical correspondent dr. jen ashton to break down the science behind it. good morning, jen. i have not heard of this before. >> to put it into perspective, we've heard that what you eat's important. we've heard when you eat's important. obviously how much you eat. nutrient sequencing takes that to a macro nutrient level really looking at the three components of fat, proteins and carbs, fiber. there is data that suggests that if you preload your meal and start with the fiber, which could be raw vegetables, then move to the lean protein and healthy fat and then at the end go to the carbs that we all love so much like bread or pasta. that it can stimulate that glp1 hormone that is all the rage with ozempic. delay your stomach emptying, make you feel full longer.

you may eat less. it can stablize your blood sugar. >> george: no more bread basket first? >> save that for dessert. [ laughter ] >> michael: who can benefit from this? >> the data is more compelling for people with type 2 diabetes. but certainly people who have had their stomach made smaller can benefit from this. also just people trying to eat more mindfully. i think -- exactly. that potentially could be everyone. again, it has to work for you. >> robin: is there anything that can go against this? >> i'm going to tell you, you have to go back to the anatomy and physiology. i have something to show you for this. when you eat, we have to remember, in your stomach it all gets mixed together. it's nice to say, you know, have the good fiber then go to the protein, like some turkey, and then finish up with bread. but your stomach is not come partmentalized like this. your stomach is compartmentalized like this. right?

so we don't want to make this into a science experiment. eating should be enjoyable, fun. there is some science behind it, but it takes about two to four hours for an average person's stomach to empty. when it's all in there together -- >> george: i'm not hungry at all now. [ laughter ] >> there you go, george. >> michael: wow. what a visual, doc. [ laughter ] >> you'll never think of your stomach the same way again. >> george: thank you, i think. [ laughter ] >> robin: good information. how about some pop news? >> lara: all right. march madness. it has been off the charts fun to watch this year. this morning we have just learned we will lose two of its huge stars. we already knew caitlin clark is heading to the draft. now, just this morning we have

learned lsu star angel reese will forego her senior year of college ball and turn her talents towards the wnba. the dynamic power forward confirming to "vogue" she will enter this month's draft where she is expected to be a first round pick. reese was inspired by serena williams to break the news in a nontraditional way. telling "vogue" she has accomplished everything she set out to do in college ball including leading the tigers to their first national championship last year. her goal now is to be one of the greatest players in the wnba. she will have an impact on the game, bringing new fans to the sport with her 6 million followers on social media. just to give you an idea of how hot women's basketball is becoming thanks to players like angel and caitlin. ticket for women's final four, which goes down friday night, are selling on the resale market for twice as much as tickets for the men's final four. you can watch it all from the comfort of your home friday starting at 7:00 p.m. on espn.

>> robin: going back to angel reese. good for her, for how she's done it her own way. not surprised at all that she's in "vogue" magazine. that's angel. >> lara: that is her. that is her. >> robin: the bayou barbie, as they call her. >> lara: yes. i love it. i agree, robin. also this morning, you teased it earlier. hard to imagine princess diana wearing anything other than that wedding gown with the massive 25 foot long train. guys, it turns out there was a plan b dress. it was totally different. the designer revealing for the first time there was a backup. it was white not that cream silk. this backup dress was white, pure white silk. it had sleek long sleeves and ruffle cuffs. here's what she tells "people" magazine in a recent interview. >> diana never knew we were making this spare. i didn't want to worry her so we never showed it to her. we never talked about it.

it was a complete secret. i was a bit neurotic at the time of the making of the royal wedding dress. i thought, what happens if somebody breaks in and steals the dress, or something spills or there's a fire or it gets stolen? i wanted to be prepared for any emergency. we set about making this other dress not exactly like the royal wedding dress. >> lara: it wasn't. she goes on to say the backup dress doesn't even exist. they ended up not finishing it up in time and the silk used for the dress was broken up and used in other dresses that she made. she completely recreated that secret design as part of an exhibit for the virtual princess diana museum. she revealed she is working on creating a modern sequel to diana's actual wedding dress, saying that she wouldn't change a thing about the dress that she made in 1981. she does want to give it an updated twist on how she sees wedding designs today. that's really interesting. i thought that was a fun fact this morning.

there was that secret dress. >> michael: i like the secret dress. it's pretty. >> lara: i agree. i love the crisp white and the sleek sleeve. it would have been fun to see both. finally though. kristin wieg plays a stylish palm beach would be socialite in a new show. she can rock a red target smock like nobody else. she is reprising her snl target lady character for a new ad campaign for the company. it's about time! she likes to say, or as she likes to say on the clock and ready to rock! check it out. >> i can't believe i get to work at target! i hope she knows she's getting deals automatically. i'd kill her if it wasn't a dream. what's that? oh, no, i don't want to wake up, there's too many deals! >> you are awake. the deals are real. >> how do you explain abe lincoln by the chips?

sarah, we're gonna start -- many people, i started spring cleaning but stopped. i'll get back to it in another week or two. i don't know why i do that. do you suggest people just clean more consistently? >> i actually suggest cleaning one room at a time and working your way in a circle through your entire house so you don't get overwhelmed. just one room at a time. finish it, close the door. don't let anyone else back in there and you're good. then move to the next room. easier that way. >> robin: let's start in the kitchen. okay. this pot. can sometimes you let things sit there. what are your suggestions here? >> a great product for cooked on greasy stuff is dawn power wash. what you do, you spray it on to the gunky -- this has been sitting overnight and you forgot to wash it. spray it, let it sit. then wipe it and rinse it. it works really good because it has solvents in it.

see how it doesn't just run off right away? this is not the same as dish soap. it's not. dish soap and water would just run off of it. then just watch how fast we're going to wipe it to get rid of stuff. >> michael: oh wow. >> even a quick cloth at the end. we're not going to get the entire thing cleaned. look. okay. >> yeah! woo! >> robin: i have seen this advertised. >> works great. >> michael: what about those places that you cannot reach? can't forget about the hard spots. top of the cabinet. what about those areas? >> robin: not hard for you. >> michael: how you reach those? >> top of the cabinet, the ones that don't go to the top of the ceiling. lot of dirt and grease will get stuck up there. dirt and grease are two totally different things so you need to have two different cleaners. an all purpose cleaner won't cut the grease. we need a degreaser to clean the top of the cup boards. something like this.

spray it down. mr. clean, clean freak. it will spray. you can spray it down. give it time and patience to work. let it sit for a moment. okay? before you wipe it off. >> michael: she wanted to say something. you said clean freak and she was like, uh-huh. okay. i read your mind, robin. >> robin: let's move on to the bathroom. everybody, come on. it gets little gunk on the mirror. >> haze. this is a very hazy mirror. you can get toothpaste gunk on it. one of the easiest ways to clean this is a little bit of actual dish soap in water. >> robin: really? >> uh-oh. little dish soap. then you're going to use a cloth. get it wet, wring it out really, really well. like you're actually using this wet cloth to clean it. okay?

that's gonna take this off right away. and you can use -- >> robin: that's nice. >> it works so good. there's a polish cloth that you can use, too. this is such a good hack for inside of your car windshield. do you know that haze when you're driving the work and you can see through the sun? this will take it off in a heart beat. >> robin: i cannot believe that. >> amazing. >> michael: i have been struggling, sarah. you should have come on a long time ago. there are a lot of cleaning myths, especially involving the toilet bowl. >> oh, yeah. okay. so toilet bowl cleaner has become a social media sensation. people say it can clean absolutely everything. it actually can't. it's corrosive. you don't want to use it on your counter. it will eat off the finish. toilet bowl cleaner is only for toilets. i preach this all the time on social media. do not spray it all over the place. don't do that. it wrecks everything.

>> robin: that's why it's on the label toilet bowl cleaner. >> only. yes. >> robin: now we move to the living room and the base board. the base boards and other areas of the wall. what are your suggestions there? >> i always say the mark of a clean home is clean base boards. [ laughter ] one of my favorite cleaners, this is an all-purpose cleaner. tide laundry deterrent. one teaspoon in a little water. you would be surprised how economical and cheap this is. one box will last you years. you'll dissolve it into water and use the cloth that works on walls, counters. then we're just going to wipe. it just comes off. >> robin: wow. >> look it. just this little bit. look how much is in a box. that will last you forever. >> michael: that's a good project to give the kids on the weekend. >> absolutely. >> michael: i'm just saying. if you're home, why not thank you. >> thanks for having me. >> michael: thank you very much.

you can shop these cleaning products on good morning america.com. coming up try before you fly. becky worley checks out travel pillows. you can see the store's inventory. so you guys really have mangoes in stock? yup. what about frozen pizza? here they are. fresh salmon. too easy. coffee? yup.

>> george: we are back with try before you buy. with so many people traveling, becky worley is looking at neck pillows. good morning, becky. >> good morning. is there anything worse than a red eye flight? while neck pillows promise

better rest, there are a lot of new designs and types. so in this shopable segment, we try before you fly. leaning up against the window, folded over the tray table or, worst of all, the head nod. trying to sleep on a plane is the worst. it can do a number on your body. >> my patients tell me when they forget their neck pillows, they get to the other end and have a sore neck. all the nerves that elevate your arm and chest come out of your neck. can mean that you have radiating pain down your arms or numbness and tingling. >> i purchased three popular neck pillows all with different designs and price points. the neck evolution for $50. the double support neck pillow by bcozzy for $45. and the travel pillow by trtl

for $65. i'm going to try all three on a red eye flight to see my in-laws. we start with the trtl. basically a piece of plastic that acts as a neck brace sewn into a soft velcro wrap. putting it on is a little confusing. what's it say? wrap. come on. you definitely have to pick a side. picking a side is a must. this is surprisingly comfortable. next the bcozzy. the next support was lower than i liked. and finally this memory foam pillow attaches to the seat's headrest. strap yourself in. line up the velcro better. it does hold my head up. despite crunching up your face. i try out all three on a nine hour flight to see which allows

for the best sleep. in the end it was the trtl that worked best for me. on such a long flight, it's been the one i travel with. it doesn't mandate a window seat for leaning against anything. it's compact. it did provide the best rest. now, i do see this as a matter of personal preference. hard to believe this could be so comfortable, but it really worked best for me. this is the trtl. i did notice though that a lot of tall men on planes use the cabo. i don't know if it's bigger or because it hooks on the back of the seat. conversely, i saw a lot of petite women using this bcozzy wrap. it's just a little bit too small for my neck. all of these products are linked on our website, guys. i can tell you that after this assignment, i am grateful to gma

because now i will actually be able to rack out in a middle seat on a plane. >> george: you took it for the team. nine hours. >> lara: that's awesome that you can get that relief. that's awesome. thank you. >> robin: where did you go? >> i went to england to see my mother-in-law. the whole family went. that was a trip we decided to use for the assignment. >> robin: great. and a writeoff! no, just kidding. just kidding. >> i'll send you the bill. >> george: ginger? >> ginger: thank you. northern florida had quite a few storms yesterday. now the front's passing through. lauderdale by the sea just a little cooler. they'll keep getting cooler. record heat yesterday. some numbers were 93 for ft. lauderdale. vero beach was 91. we'll see them lower closer to average, dryer, too, as that high pressure system moves in. let's get a check closer to home.

>> lara: time for the finale of our series before you take the leap. this morning we're focusing on real estate, breaking down the conversations couples should have before moving in together and tips to navigate the market. joining us is founder of serhant real estate. ryan, so nice to see you in person. big fan of you on tv. you have great advice for us. let's start with some really simple advice for any couple, whether married or not, before you decide to take the leap. >> sure. i would say the first thing, hopefully, that's the right person you're getting married to before you buy a home. right? remember, too, you're not purchasing the purchase price. everyone focuses on that big purchase price. $500,000, $800,000. that's a lot. you don't live in the purchase price. you live in that monthly payment.

so you want to make sure you can afford that monthly payment. can you afford that debt to income? is this a good long term decision or not? big questions you want to answer before you make any leap into homeownership. >> george: lot of questions for engaged couple. here's one from ben and belle. >> hi. we're getting married in june and haven't merged our finances yet. is there something we should be doing now to better prepare us for buying a home in the future? >> great question. i get that a lot from people. kind of going back to the way i first answered. i would say the number one thing you want to focus on, one, do you want to buy a home or not? you want to be focused on that interest rate. not what your monthly payment is. you want to get preapproved. there's so many people that work in mortgages, so many great lending officers. get preapproved and understand how much you can afford. that's what you're going to live in every single day. understand, too, that location is important. if you're going to buy a home

today and you're newly engaged, where are you going to move in the next couple years? is your job going to take you somewhere? is life going to change? i meet a lot of newly wed couples and they say, i just met my spouse a year ago and we want to buy our first home. sometimes it's okay to maybe take things slower, you know? or be fast, too, make a decision because the market is very tight. >> lara: where do you stand on that whole five year thing, where you should own it for five years? >> i think you should own a home for as long as the home serves you. most people do own a home for around five years. that's kind of like a national average. we see people buying a home and then their life changes in three years. >> lara: don't get married, no pun intended, to that five year rule. we should only buy if we're going to stay there five years. >> sure. you can always move. there's always flexibility. the housing market, especially now, is very very tight. there's not much inventory out there. less homes sold in 2023 than in the last 30 years, so there is a lot of demand. if you stay there ten years,

that's okay. if you stay two years and are able to sell, maybe an investment property, that's another way you can bill wealth. >> lara: let's look at another question. >> we would like to know, now that we're an engaged couple, what conversations should we have about purchasing a home? thank you. >> big questions. i would say the biggest question i get -- >> lara: it's more about buying over renting, right? isn't that what you want -- >> buying over renting. also, how do i combine our finances? should i set up a joint checking account or should we keep finances separate? people ask me that all the time. you'd think most newly wed couples set up joint checking accounts. honestly, less than 40% of americans who get married set up joint checking accounts. you want to combine finances to understand how much you can afford, and then understand, whether buying or renting, you're paying a mortgage.

you're ire paying your own or somebody else's. if you want to build up credit and equity or do you want to keep that flexibility in case life takes you elsewhere. you want to move cities, move town, bounce around, experience things more than ever. >> george: thanks for coming in. >> lara: thanks. coming up lady a is with us performing live on "good morning america." with us
