Two days of digging for a USB stick sounds more like a you problem than a router problem. Most updates these days keep your settings unless you hit a factory reset, and mine have pulled through fine for years. I would rather take the five minute update than sit on old firmware with holes in it.

Honestly I was one of those people who shared that ad thinking it was the real deal. Seeing how many "vintage" pics online trace back to one colorized proof makes me check sources now before reposting anything. Good reminder that a little digging goes a long way.

The trick is that coupons and cash back apps work different ways, so pitting them against each other does not really add up. Most cash back apps give you 1 to 3 percent back on whatever you buy, and that stacks with a store sale if you play it right. Paper coupons usually only work on specific brands, and half of them get refused at the register because the fine print did not match up. Cash back also shows up as real money you can pull out, while a coupon only saves you money on something you were already going to buy anyway. So clipping coupons can be great, but saying they beat every app out there is a stretch.
