Here's Your $0.65

What is Here's Your $0.65?


1.

A phrase used as an argument for when somebody says something so good about a product that it seems like they're being paid by the company themselves.

This phrase derives from the 2009 scandal involving Belkin, where employees of Belkin hired people on Amazon's 'Mechanical Turk' to write positive reviews about their products - in return for 65 cents.

Bob: Erm...okay. Here's your $0.65.
