Well, last week I lost 70€ from trying to abuse new user deals on aliexpress and not being able to relogin to cancel some stupid order (somehow it didn't work and I had to pay the full price) and somehow I accidentaly ordered two items. Now I have two shitty watches I don't even like, which I'll have to sell on fb marketplace (probably with a loss). What I learned from this is to never be in a hurry when dealing with money.

Careful. At this rate, Disney will be able to murder your entire extended family

The great thing about owning your own domains, and setting up an email catch-all or using aliases.

No need anymore. Duckduckgo has you covered with their email aliases.

moving the period around in an email address allows some sites to see it as a new user, but ignored by the email client.
so new.user@email.com and n.ewuser@email.com can both make accounts, and not even need to make a mask.
this probably works better for some domains than others, but I've had great success with it.

Just use a temp mail service? Depending on the account, of course

need to still be able to get in and cancel the service before the trial ends.
there's probably a lot of better ways to do it, but I only need a free trial for small stuff a few times a year, so I've never looked too far into it
