    lol I signed up for deal alerts because I wanted a really specific product. my keywords were meticulously specific. their deal search tool allowed me to tune my search so products I want are in the results and products I don’t want are not. every email they send me includes products that are “related but obviously wrong” to my keywords. Like I’d be ok if an algorithm slipped in a mistake or two but you made a whole fucking page dedicated to this and then you just send random bullshit to my email? that’s basically spam. Like imagine if you made a custom search for “nike sneakers -addidas” and the search tool confirmed 100% you got the keywords right and then the actual email alert is sending you addidas shorts and other random bullshit.
