Did you actually check if those savings were on stuff you would've bought anyway? I see these apps count every "deal" as money saved even when it's just a sale price on something you had no plan to buy. That's not saving, that's spending you wouldn't have done without the app nudging you. Last year my own app told me I saved like 800 bucks, but when I went through it, half the items were things I grabbed just because they showed up as a deal. The store isn't dumb either, they know the app pushes you toward their brand or the bigger size that ends up costing more per use. So what's your real number look like if you only count the stuff that was already on your list?
