I can see this becoming a thing:
@Vermillion-Rx This story broke months ago. Couponing strikes me as a "woman" behavior, and if I'd seen this I'd immediately suspect it would steer me in directions beneficial to the app and its backers but not to me.
Not disagreeing that this is an evil and ballsy outright scam, but things like this make me immediately suspect the "customer" makes at best a third order priority for the enterprise.
It's like winning the lottery only to find out how much money you owed and have to pay back before you can collect the earnings.
I had no idea how much work was going to be required to get off of it after seeing the benefits. It's not an off switch, the weight of recovering drags you down even as you feel all the benefits
Going to keep it up.
Going to have to do another all nighter because energy levels are far too high.
My mood increase, confidence from rebuilding skills I lost through drinking, and looking forward to how my interactions are going to go forward are way too stimulating and setting off hypomania (bipolar)
I had no idea how deep the rabbit hole went on what daily binge drinking was doing to me. I would have stopped a lot sooner if I'd had any idea.
I think the biggest thing stopping drinkers from not drinking is that only the negatives are focused on. Seeing how much of a weight drags behind you when you recover and find all these benefits with detox weight is more convincing than anything else I ever read anywhere

Kept my two week promise to not drink. Any time I've had a craving immediately identified what set it off. I'm realizing there are a lot of boring tasks id drink to get through and just automatically reach for it
It's surprising how many mundane little triggers there are for wanting some. Starting to even ignore drinks in other people's hands. I have almost no recollection of alcohol Saturday night out. My eyes/mind didn't register much of any of if around me.
Biggest challenge i still have is bad insomnia and hypomania. Had a lot of conversations with women on my fuck-it list for once. I usually don't converse with them but did my best to converse despite getting rusty. Being sober is so much easier to talk than a few drinks in. The optimism is a bit too stimulating though

For my part, I knew it had to be a scam as soon as I first heard of it. If a product is free, you are the product.
Yeah, when i first saw the thumbnail of the video i was like, "whatever this video is going to be some trivial angle about how the coupons are lame but I'll watch it"
Holy fuck, they're even worse than I had suspected
That was my reaction, I had absolutely no idea how psychopathic a coupon company could be or how deep the PayPal rabbit hole could go, yet here I am blood boiling at a coupon video.
Unexpected red pill.
Well clean up your act, fag
