Pretty sure this was already posted yesterday when it came out. Or it might have been a different community.

Watching the full video is important though because they are scamming the consumer too, not just """influencers""". Someone made a great comment about how it's just one greedy troll stealing from another and has no effect on the consumer since they still save money but Honey not actually giving you the best coupons on purpose is next level dickholery.

Lying about the coupons really should be the focus so people stop harming themselves using Honey.

It's also kind of a protection racket against shops. "Partner with us or we'll cut into your profits by spreading cheap coupon codes, but partner with us and we'll protect you"
