I recently got accepted to the Yelp Elite Squad, which throws fun, free events for their members. On Saturday, we got to have brunch and check out the stunning new Penrose apartments on Mass Ave. Rise ‘n’ Roll Bakery was there, as was Greenleaf Juicing Company, Condados Tacos, Provider, Hoi Tea Toi Tea, SoChatti, and many more.

I know I had my doubts about them but after using two different apps – Ibotta and Dosh, for the past year, I can confidently say “YES!” to one of them and “Meh” to the other.
