        “Father, what is my purpose?”

        “You clip coupons.”

        “… Oh my god…”

        Then the bot goes and gets their little bot scissors

        But digitally.

        and their bot newspaper,

        But digitally.

        then clips up some coupons

        But digitally.

        and hands them to OP.

        But digitally.

        They said we’d all be living in a VR world by now back in the 90s!

      TamperMonkey (I’ve been told to use ViolentMonkey instead as TamperMonkey isn’t open source) and the script here. Then you can run a script to periodically log into your account in a headless browser and click the button. Unfortunately there’s no coupon API so this is the best solution I could think of.
