Yes, the pandemic is still going on. Yes, we're back for our third edition of rating your shocking purchases throughout. You'll be pleased to know we're seeing some shifting in the standard of spending. Don’t get us wrong things are still weird. To say the least. But some of you seem to be finding the light. Even if it is in a really sad Covid-style cake candle.
Let's go.
A HOUSE
Ok, so not a house. But loads of good things here. One: huge manifestation. Two: felt happy for a second. Three: you got Sushi, which is nowhere near a bad pandemic purchase. 8/10 all round.
Hate that we don’t hate them? Saving the floor. Could be used as adorable coin purses for all the money you save on not having to save your floor. Never seen before. 8.5/10
COVID CAKE
A true attack by 2020. Open flame near mask. Both sad and cute. 5/10.
STUFFED ANIMALS AT 33
We all want a bit of comfort right now, sure. But this is actually just terrifying. Think it’s the whiskers. Chop them off and we’ll see you next time. 3/10.
A MISSED OPPORTUNITY
If we’re not all setting up an inflatable bubble budget right now, what ARE we doing? Go on, you’re excused. 10/10.
We just raised $44M in a Series B round led by EQT Ventures, a very decent group of people. They love companies with a mission to do good. But to be honest, what they were most impressed with, was you. A supportive community of roast lovers chatting to Cleo and helping us build something that makes an impact.
Let's face it, as a typical Gen-Z I'm not gonna be jumping on the property ladder anytime soon. For me, the workplace is less about becoming a baller and more about finding genuine value. Bit biased, sure, but here's why Cleo is just that.
