Any given day I run any of 5 different browsers for different things, and only one (Chrome, as it's Google and evil already) for FB. It's no guarantee of any safety, but at least I'm not just giving it away as easily.



Search with DuckDuckGo!

Yep, and good info for those who don't use DDG>

I still use my 4 browsers (FF, Chrome, Opera, IE/Edge, TOR) very selectively, and DDG for many searches, among other search tools like DogPile and TinyEye.

Thanks GVoR for the shopping explanation, that was an interesting read.


I've noticed with certain apps on my phone, if I just go into it and look around, and then close it, I will get a coupon or offer shortly after.


True for Noodles & Company and Google Rewards.

I must be doing something wrong!

Hubby and I went to the Angus Barn on a Tuesday night. The plan was to eat in the Turkey Lounge. Sometimes if we aren't very hungry, we can share a huge burger and enjoy the cheese and crackers, for a small price!

There were 12 couples AHEAD of us on the Turkey Lounge list! We decided not to wait but did grab a few crackers on the way out.

I NEVER got a coupon offer!!!
