2024-12-17 Falling Rock Was trying to place an order to a perfumer website. It offered the item for $70.++ (am uncertain of the cents, while the $70 part is correct; this was a coupon discount that the product vendor was offering a half hour ago.) When I tried to place the order, the CNET app put up an overlay on the vendor's webpage, and eventually produced a result of ~ $87.19 (again, cents uncertain) based on a vendor's retail price of ~$109.00. I tried to return to the vendor's page that had the $70.++ and after CNET repeated its overlay, it then produced a resulting discounted $76.29 (approx). So, I am about equally displeased with an apparent bait and switch from the vendor and with CNET's apparent adding about ~$11 to the lowest price. However, it's better than the others, so. I will lie and let live.

2023-12-07 Firefox user 13275194 This was a useful and desirable extension when it simply helped find the best prices for items purchased online. But they added a feature that pops up on almost every website offering cash back. I don't want or need cashback on all of those websites. But there is no way to disable the annoying cashback popup that now emerges constantly. I therefore found myself forced to remove this extension completely. Suggestion to developers: allow users to toggle the cashback popups on or off.
2023-11-30 Firefox user 16933112 I have a steam deck and the popup covers a large part of my display area. But it doesn't need to popup every time i open a page either.
