You know that moment when you check your email, and there’s a message from your grocery store app letting you know there’s new coupons available, and it’s the really good ones, like the ones that are actually based on your past purchase history, and you get super excited about it? Yeah. That’s me.
(Yes, I know it means all my purchases are tracked, but it’s not like they couldn’t do that before anyway, and the coupons really are pretty good. Sometimes I wonder if the hit or miss nature of the ‘selected for you’ algorithm is actually indicative of our current level of predictive technology, or if it’s just lulling us into a false sense of security that the machines don’t know everything about us.)
((A dollar fifty off one frozen pizza! That’s a 30% savings off something I would have purchased anyway! And I know, frozen pizza isn’t exactly highkey adulting, but I have officially declared that it Still Counts.))
