  • Daily Goodie Box

6/6/20

First, this is absolutely free and legitimate.
They've never asked for any payment info!

How it works: sign up with Daily Goodie Box. They will not require formulaic surveys, or for you to sign up with anyone else. No one else will start to contact you or spam you. It's all through them, which I really appreciate. Just sign up with them and then positively interact with any of their social media posts. (grouchy grumbles about not having won a box won't get you anywhere!) They give away a ton of boxes daily to people who are commenting on their posts. I often comment on a product they are showing that will be in an upcoming box, why I would love to try it, or how it looks delicious or helpful - just engage! I've even won boxes for commenting to other people in their posts!
Then watch for a "Congrats! You've just won a Goodie Box!"
I've won several and they are always jam packed with full-sized free products to try as well as coupons for those products! Which is a good thing since you WILL find products you LOVE. I always post pics of my Goodie Boxes and tag Daily Goodie Box, but I don't think that's required.
They won't bug you again about them. They just send out boxes of free stuff for you to try.
I do like to review the products for my friends, I've shared coupons and products when there's been something I don't eat or use in there - I find someone who will enjoy trying it and ask them for their feedback.
That's it. Free free free!

  • Uber Eats

5/5/19

I've used Uber Eats for a while now. I put up with the forgotten bags of food and forgotten beverages, the dreadful customer service (the restaurants would make reparations while Uber Eats played their silly dance of first blaming the restaurant, then pretending to misunderstand what the issue is, then finally cheerfully informing you that they're helpless to do anything about it even though it actually really is their fault. But they finally went too far.

I ordered my food, saw and agreed to a $3.49 delivery charge. Saw the tax, saw my total. Everything was exactly as I expected. The food was delivered, they actually had both bags of food and the beverage! I was thinking I hit the Uber Lottery. Until after eating, I checked my email and saw the receipt. Uber Eats had added an additional "service charge" of $8.44. Completely unauthorized, never displayed during my order, in my cart, during payment. Just snuck it onto my card without my authorization. First, they tried to tell me it was the restaurant. Then they pretended to think that I was missing something from my order. Finally, they cheerfully informed me that they now charge a percentage of your actual food order ON TOP OF THE DELIVERY FEE THAT YOU AGREE TO. This is "underway" and all orders are charged a service fee.

CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS. Had I understood that I was paying almost $12 for delivery of my food, I would've opted for a different delivery service. (As I will in the future, of course.)

And for the record, the service food was NOT included in my cart for me to see. I had one total in my cart that included the food, delivery fee, and tax. I had a completely different amount charged to my card. If this really IS legal, it should not be.
