For anyone who loves browsing the sales but would rather not spend. Dopamine Chic looks like a real designer outlet: brand sales, a deal of the hour, sizes that sell out while you look. But checkout is always $0.00, and it counts the money you didn't spend. The parcel ships, gets close, and never arrives with one of 50 reasons, from a raccoon at the depot to the Svalbard seed vault (once your friends try to hurry it). No sign-up, free on Web, Android & iPhone in 56 languages.
Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm Michał, the maker of Dopamine Chic.
It's for anyone who loves browsing the sales but would rather not spend. This summer the press started writing about "dopamine sites": fake shops where you order, pay nothing, and follow a parcel that never comes. Most of them are about food delivery, so I made one for fashion.
Everything looks real: brand campaigns that come and go, countdowns, a deal of the hour, "Last one" in your size. But checkout is always $0.00, and the app keeps count of the money you didn't spend. Then the parcel ships, the tracking gets close… and it never arrives. There are 50 reasons, some of them local (a raccoon in Newark, a heron in Amsterdam, a pigeon in Warsaw). Friends can join in too: send them the tracking link and they can try to hurry the courier. Every hurry sends the parcel somewhere worse, all the way to the Svalbard seed vault or the North Pole.
A few things I cared about:
Nothing to type: no sign-up, no name, no address, no card field anywhere.
The whole sale schedule is computed from the time, so the app works fully offline.
56 languages, with local prices and local creatures stealing the parcels.
It's free on the web, Android and iPhone. Nothing is charged, nothing ever arrives, but the dopamine hits are real.
I'd love your feedback: which non-delivery reason did you get, and what should the courier do next?
