What they did
Planning to buy e-bikes for his family for Christmas, a user wanted to add one more bike he hadn't budgeted for. He asked Grok Bot to help him pay for it, and it helped cancel a few subscriptions, negotiated his internet bill down and found a credit card with a cash bonus in the points program he already uses.
How it went
He says that by the time he buys the bikes he'll have saved or earned enough to cover the extra one.
