Why it’s listed

its privacy policy says 'We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or profiling. We do not sell your personal data'1, and the whole point is consuming less.

The trade-off

It's closed source and US-centred, and many local Buy Nothing groups still run on Facebook, so check your area has an app group.

Price

Free; Buy Nothing Pro is $69.99 a year2.
