Wait. How is honey a scam? It’s purpose is to give people discounts they didn’t know about otherwise, and as far as I can tell, that’s exactly what it’s doing. Maybe it’s in a gray moral area, but a scam?
If you actually watched the video you’re currently commenting on you’d have an answer to your question.
But since you didn’t watch it I’ll give you a hint. It steals affiliate links taking money out of the pockets of those who are getting you a discount. It then uses those stolen affiliate links to take money out of your pocket as well by short changing you discounts (By telling you it found you a 10% coupon that is actually a 30% coupon and is pocketing the difference)
Honey is getting paid by shops to only serve you the coupons that Shop wants you to see, potentially keeping you from discovering a better deal on your own.
I have no idea how to find different discounts. If I’m getting a discount where I wouldn’t without the service, that isn’t a scam. Sure you can be more diligent and frugal if you know where to go, but I don’t, and I’m sure most people who use honey don’t either
Edit: I would like to add, I mostly buy things on my phone, and as far as I know Honey isn’t on android, so I have never used it. I do, often, look for discounts on things I’m buying and almost never succeed. I really hope Honey comes to Android, so I can start saving money.

Okay, that is still giving someone a discount they didn’t otherwise know was possible. That isn’t a scam.
Watch the video, dumbass
