The weekend is finally here, Daily Money readers. Brett Molina is back in your inbox with more Money news. 

But first ....

💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: If you're in the market for a used car, get ready to pay more. The production of new vehicles has been hampered by a massive semiconductor chip shortage, which means more car buyers turning to used vehicles as an alternative. 

Here's what else is happening in Money and Tech on Friday:

1. NFTs. They're really popular right now. Should you invest in one? Also, what the heck is a NFT?

2. Suez Canal blockage. That massive container ship stuck in the critical waterway could have an impact on consumers.

3. Social media leaders back before Congress. And lawmakers are warning of potential Big Tech regulation.

4. Today's tax tip. If you are a small business owner, here's why you need an accountant.

5. It's like Easter in a can. Peeps and Pepsi are teaming up to make a marshmallow soda. We'll pass.

Scroll down for more Money and Tech headlines, and enjoy your weekend.
