Tesco give you an effective 1% discount on some future purchases for using their clubcard at the checkout, that's provided you use the coupons they send you periodically before they expire. I prefer to do as little shopping as possible

I'm using them for years as a form of backup. Very reasonable priced, works flawlessly for me though I mainly use as a form of backup for a synced folder. GDPR compliant.

I think most people get it that prize is twice as likely to be behind one of the two other doors rather than behind the door you pick. So one time out of three you'll get it right while two times out of three the presenter indirectly

The well meaning extrovert person who introduces you to someone by saying, this is x, he's really shy . Anyone had that, ever? They might as well dig a hole for you.
