Those benefits are usually your own money + the money of those who fail to make payments since merchants have to increase their prices to compensate for credit card fees.

They indirectly steal from you, launder the funds and present it back to you as a "benefit", but only if you've been a good boy.

This is a similar principle to modern loyalty programs. In exchange for your personal information and your eyes (advertising), you get to pay slightly above the regular price and accumulate ✨points✨ while other schmos get a jacked up price that pays for your points (or the value of your points is built into the price of the items you purchase).

My partner tried a diva cup, and it's unfortunately not for her.

Can we ban electoral signs? Do they even do anything besides pollute the visual landscape for a few weeks?

We just need generic, non-partisan ads that just say "Go vote"
