✨ What Type of Shopper Are You? (Take the Quiz)

We’ve all bought something we thought was a deal… then regretted it later. But here’s the twist: not all regrets come from the same place. Some of us: - 🚀 Chase convenience (“If it saves me time, swipe my card”). - 💡 Maximize value (“ROI or I’m out”). - 🛡️ Defend durability (“Will this survive 5 years?”). - 🎭 Invest in identity (“Does this fit who I want to be?”). 👉 I built a short quiz that reveals your dominant buyer type (plus your secondary influence). You’ll see exactly what drives your spending decisions — and why some products feel like wins while others sting later. 💬 After you take it, drop your result in the comments. Let’s see which type dominates this community. 🔗 https://johnny-bhc45ww1.scoreapp.com

General discussion

👋 Welcome to The 20% Club!

Most products are hype. We’re here for the 20% that’s actually worth it. This community is about protecting your wallet, spotting marketing traps, and sharing products that genuinely improve daily life. Since you’re one of the first 5 members, you’re basically the founding crew. 🚀 Here’s how to kick things off: 1. Introduce yourself → Name + what kind of products you buy most (tech, home, fitness, etc.). 2. Share one product you regret buying 👎 (the 80%). 3. Share one product you’d actually recommend to a friend 👍 (the 20%). I’ll be posting regret-proof product picks, impulse detox tools, and breakdowns of marketing traps here. But this only works if we share and learn together. Welcome to the 20% Club. Let’s outsmart the algorithm together.

Hey guys, just wanted to stop by and tell you about this FitBit I picked up yesterday. It’s the FitBit Inspire 3 and it was on Sale at Best Buy for $80 (original price is $100). I had been in the market for something to track my steps, that’s all I needed because I’m doing a bet with my coworkers. I had asked some of you guys and I got some great recommendations, but I saw the sale yesterday and said let me give it a try. I was going to wait about a week to make this post but I’m so impressed with this item that I thought I’d let you guys know about it right now in case you’re looking into one and while the sale is going on lol. The Inspire 3 tracks my steps as well as my heart rate, and sleep. The FitBit connects to your phone via Bluetooth and you can view all your information thru the FitBit app which is nice. In the app they include some workouts as well. An added bonus I thought made this product great is that, when you receive text messages, you can view the message in your FitBit which I did not expect. I’m one day in and I’m happy with this product.

Hey Value Unboxed community. Lately, I’ve been on the hunt for a new keyboard—and it’s been a tougher search than I expected. Most of what I’ve come across are gaming keyboards. They look sleek, but I’m not sure how practicaly they are for someone like me who spends the bulk of the day typing for work. The gaming options I’ve seen are often bulky and loaded with features like colorful lights, which I imagine drain battery life. What I really need is something compact, reliable, and comfortable enough to handle hours of daily use without being over the top. If you’ve found a keyboard you love for work, something that balances convenience with durability, I’d love to hear your suggestions. Hopefully, with your help, I can finally find the right keyboard!
