When People Fail Technology

We are all used to technology failing.  However, sometimes it is not the fault of the tech. I got one of those "daily deal" emails and was ready to buy.  I love ice cream.  Then I saw, down near the bottom, in grey letters "Valid ONLY in Centerville."  Translation, valid only in the middle of no where and not the one 3 blocks away from me.

I want to know how many people bought this not really reading the fine print.  

Second, I downloaded a free iTunes cleaner with a free 14 day trial.  Ok, I'll try it out.  I looked for information if it was a limited functionality demo but couldn't really find any. So I ran scan, found a problem and tried to click fix.  Oops.
