TIL my fitness app sells my workout data to third parties.

Guess my morning runs are funding someone's coffee habit.

Honestly, how many things are we trading for a little bit of convenience? Ruby310 is right to say stop, but it feels like every app or service now wants a piece of your info or your attention. You trade your workout data to track a run, or your time hunting fake deals like that coupon app. We're all making these tiny bad deals without even noticing.

Stop using those apps, seriously...

Expired snacks? That's just sad.

Yeah, that "stop using those apps" line... my friend got deep into a coupon app last year. She'd spend hours chasing deals on stuff she didn't need. Her apartment filled up with cheap kitchen gadgets and expired snacks. She finally quit when she realized she was saving money but wasting her whole life. Now she just buys what she actually wants... way simpler.
