here's a look at what's making news as we head into a new week anti-money. america's unemployment rate fell to a nine-year low in november stt.ands at 4.6%, best number since august of 2007, but that's in part because many people gave

up looking for work and the labo frorce shrank. the economy created 178,000 new jobs about, in line with expectations. hospitality and leisure showed strength. yet another record close for the dow on thursday. banks and energy companies helping push the average higher but the nasdaq and s&p 500 lagged behind most of the week. stocks were mixed on friday. america's economy grew at a much faster pace than first thought. the second reading of last quarter's got domestic product showed an annualized rate of 3.2%, that's better than it the original estimate of 2.9%. in fact, it's the best number in two years. those low oil prices may be a thing of the past. opec oil ministers came to an agreement this week to cut production for the first time in eight years. that's supposed to talk effect january 1st, but opec producers don't have a great history sticking to their own deals. even so, that sent oil prize

north of $50 a barrel and it's likely to increase gas line prices and home heating oil prices. the holidays are coming up and for many of us it means getting together with family and friends and exchanging gis.ft finding best bargain for those presents usually means scouring the internet or newspapers for coupons. but as more and more stores offer memberships, is that the better bet? joining us now is mary beth quirk, the managing editor for consumerists.com. great to have you here. big box stores like sam's club and costco have been doing this for year. you have amazon prime which a lot of people are fans of. who else is getting in on this membership deal? >> walmart recently jumped on the bandwagon with amazon. they are not offering where you can pay a certain amount of money for year, you get free wo-day shipping all year long and other stores doing this it, brands you might not have thought of, rei, restoration hardware, land's end, all

different than the free programs you can join and get the regular kind of perks. this you also pay for a year and then you get free shipping in return, sometimes other perks or conveniences they can offer and better customer service and may have bert access for sales throughout the year. might get a flat 20% off on everything you buy from the rell tailer and can get access to special sales that are just for members. >> it's interesting when you are talking about having a loyalty program because so many of them are free s.paying a fee for that loyalty program a turnoff for some customers? >> it is, but that's where you have to think about what kind of customer you are. this is the place you're shopping regularly throughout the year and it's going to be worth it, you want to make sure it pays for itself. don't want to be like the gym membership you get on january 1st and never use it again, something sitting there bothering >> you how do you decide what the value is to you? >> many different questions, a warehouse club, physical storks how close is it to you, near your home or office senator somewhere you're likely to stop by? you basically want something

that's not more work for you. >> i find myself weighing because i get the e-mails from restoration hardware is how much am i going to spend at this particular store? if you're getting ready to do all your holiday shopping hat one store, that might me aksense or if you're going to redesign your interior, go for the paid loyalty program because 20% off could be significant. >> they also offer perks, just like amazon prime has access to video libraries and mike, things like restoration hardware offer an interior design service that's complement reand rei you can hook up with a travel guide and they have got different things that can help you out and it's not just about buying things. they want you to have an experience with your brand. >> great to talk to you. thank you. >> no problem, thank you. up next we're anti-much. hatching up a hit. the toy that stores can't keep on their shelves and later celebrity chef m

after coming to the united states with just $300 in his pocket and a vision, chef marcus sam yulgsson earned a three-star review from the "new york times" at the ripe old age of 23. 11 restaurants and eight cook books later the celebrity chef is on the path to building a cooking empire. his latest book is called "the red rooster cook book" after his harlem restaurant. mar cushions it's such a pleasure to have you here. >> how are you? >> great to see you. >> nice to see that we're coordinated. >> ready for the holidays here. >> yes. >> i have to ask you, you have this remarkable story that epitomizes the american dream and yet you didn't start in america. can you give me a sense of your past. >> like any swede i was born in ethiopia and adopted to sweden and obviously i feel very fortunate about that and my life could have taken a completely different path. my sister and mom and i had tuberculosis, adopted in swooez

sweden hand my grandmother there taught me how to cook and taught me basically everything that i know her today and her meat balls, grandma's khelga meat balls will always in hour restaurant. i felt -- i did all my education in europe in terms of working in france and switzerland and i wanted more. i wanted to own my own restaurant and coming to america for me was the place and specifically in new york city was the place i felt i can do that. >> do you have to have other skills outside the kitchen? >> sure. >> business, branding? >> success is not a bus stop. you constantly have to be curious and want to learn more and operating a restaurant today in a multi-locations and multi-countries is fastly different than 10, 15 years ago. today you have to know about social media, about, you know, the dialogue about healthy cooking is much better. where does the ingredient come from? yes, finance, marketing and, of course, passion for food and leading and building communities, right. that's essentially what we've

done at the red roostner haar level. we've started with this idea that good food shouldn't be owned by certain zip codes. >> i was also interested to learn this a large percentage of the staff at the red roostner harlem are local people, some of whom had no restaurant experience beforehand so how do you give back to the community and employ local people and still achieve a high standard of culinary service that your loyal customers from other restaurants would expect from you? >> i mean training, training, training and it's hard work and it's also what you get from people that you've not worked in the restaurant before and we've had a very diverse past and also an excitement and loishlgts so, you know, when i talk to my chef and colleagues downtown the loyalty factor might different. it really goes back to the core name of what a restaurant means. restore your community and by having about 200 employees there, by having 50 musicians that call red rooster home and a

place we can play, i feel like we've really done something that we can stand for, great food and great music and hospitality. >> what's your best advice for achieving the kind of success? >> the land skein of starting your own business is very interest, right, because you can actually start it out of your own parent eats home and can you start it online, even from your phone, right, so the opportunities and dream -- if you can't see it, there might be an opportunity for you to create it so dream birks you know. you look at a person that started in one part of the world and group up somewhere else and came to new york city and had a lot of mentors and a lot of people believing in me and hard work and finding a good mentor and actually listen to your parents might be the recipe for you. >> marcus, thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. up next "on the money" a look at the news for the week ahead and there's no escaping the season's host toy. oh, no, here it comes. it's a creature in a plastic egg with a real exit strategy.
