>PayDragon is based on the premise that waiting in line to purchase items is neither good for the customer or the merchant.

In NY when you see a place with a line you get intrigued. Sometimes a queue is a great advertisement for people walking by.

In the UK, you will generally avoid places that don't have a queue. They must be quiet for a reason, right?

A hungrier person (from waiting in line) might also buy more food (good for the merchant).

Looks like this is the tool that shopify uses. See the comment from the CEO.

DueProps is loosely modelled on Unicorn

I believe that figure of how much you can spend today takes into account savings goals as well as payment commitments.

Also there is no reason you can't look and see you have some money that is available and toss it in a savings account. Basically the user gets to choose where that money goes, but either way they have a better idea of "what's left over."

Maybe to emphasize that you are not getting credit?

I thought it was implying that if you are the type of person to find that link you could be in the engineering department (ie it isn't dynamic)

I'm guessing that 600,000 represents penn, but I am just guessing based on the numbers and what others have written.

Maybe you should lay off the Victoria Secret searches ;-)

If you don't mind me asking, what were your categories? I am curious why they inferred female vs male.

Also, there was something about articles related to social stuff / basic rights, but I can't see it anymore (weird).

So yeah, maybe it is because I used to watch Friends, Desperate Housewives and Sex and the City :D

I know, I know, especially that last one; I got in the habit because of my wife and for some weird reason, I began liking that show.

I feel for you. My wife watches "Real Housewives" series and I now know way too much about those people. :-)

It doesn't help that it's called "10CLICKFU".

I would love to see this for (unused disposable) diapers. I bought wayyy too many 1s and have a bunch left over that I will never use. I wish I could send them into a service and get some 3s that I could actually use now.

The thing I noticed was that you can't pick and choose what you like (maybe I misunderstood). Basically you just get a random dress or outfit. If this were truly a netflix style system, you should be able to choose the latest fashion and swap in and out as much as you want. The benefit is the latest fashion for less. That being said, I really like the concept.
