    On Wednesday, some of the people who posted about the gift card said that when they went to redeem the offer, they got an error message saying the voucher had been canceled. When TechCrunch checked the voucher, the Uber Eats page provided an error message that said the gift card “has been canceled by the issuing party and is no longer valid.”

    You can’t make this stuff up.

    $10?! TEN DOLLARS. You can’t even get an mini cinnamon roll for $10. Your profit centers need to be fed, cheapstrike.

    The CEO never formally apologized for it either, at least with his few X posts.
