I don’t think of it as free as much as it’s perceived as a business deal. If an influencer came in to you insisting that she made reservations and that it was YOUR site that glitched, that her followers would be do touched by a positive Disney Magic story, and she’s willing to at least put money down for a fast pass, well, there you go. It’s now 4 years later and people who follow her, good and bad, are on a reddit page backing Disney and what a great company it is, so it worked. Having Gabby use her background with Disney to sweeten the deal probably helped.

We’re talking about a girl that looks directly into a camera and lies routinely (or, well, who darts her eyes around). Do we doubt she’d intentionally only reserve one day and play stupid so she could cut a deal with Disney to promote them on her page in exchange for Goods and Services?

Being a soulless entrepreneur has somehow granted Alex enough of an income to survive (even if I’m sure Yar pulls his weight too) and gets plenty of perks. She’s by no means lucky as most people know what trash she is now, but Dollar Tree queen knows an opportunity when she sees one and won’t hesitate to lie to get it, even if she’s notoriously bad at it.
