by Synetech, 6 years ago*Honey doesn't work anymore; clicking the button no longer opens the drop-down.*
This extension does not work for me. The only online shopping I do is with eBay, and there are *never* any codes for eBay, and even the 0.5% return thing it offers for eBay never works because all of my purchases are always excluded. This extension might be of some value to some people, but certainly not for me.
Also, I do not like that it is constantly watching what sites we visit, even in privacy mode, and phoning home with that information to see if there's a code for the site. That's a huge privacy leak.
UPDATE:
In addition to it never working, it also has no codes for any other sites (it's basically just groupon and other sites that only have useless fake or expired codes).
It also EXPIRES YOUR GOLD, so you could go a long time, slowly trying to inch towards that 1,000 gold minimum to be able to actually get ANYTHING out of Honey, but they'll delete it and force you to start over from scratch. Yes, they're so petty, they'll steal your $1.23. 😒
There's also no way to remove the affiliate that referred you to stop them from getting paid (assuming they actually do), so if you joined Honey with an affiliate link from someone who later turns out to be horrible, too bad, you'll have to either keep helping them out, or forfeit whatever honey-gold you have and delete your account. 😒
MegaLag did an exposé video showing how Honey STEALS affiliate commissions from LITERALLY EVERYBODY! On top of being useless to users, they're also THIEVES! 😠
DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT NOW! (You have literally nothing to lose since I've never seen ANYBODY show they actually saved anything with Honey. 😒)
