1. On Pinduoduo, items priced below 10 yuan can always be returned for a refund without returning the item if you find a reason. No seller will argue with you, but this tactic is only recommended to retaliate against bad merchants.
2. Most people whose phone screens are cracked actually just have a damaged glass cover, which can be replaced for around 100 yuan. However, all phone shops will suggest a full screen replacement costing between 300 to 900 yuan, and the same goes for major brand after-sales services.
3. Although postal services are slow, they can deliver to the ends of the earth; there’s no place they can't reach. Just like Little Durian's blessings!
Wishing all the friends who like this, will become beautiful, cool, and wealthy~~~
4. When you go to the pharmacy, head straight for the bottom shelves. For cold medicine, cough medicine, and painkillers, just buy the cheapest one. The staff will recommend the one with the highest commission, not the one that works best. Those that are commission-free, cheap, and with good expiration dates are all placed on the least noticeable bottom shelves.
5. Jewelry like jadeite and emerald is priced in stores at a marked up rate. Take a few digits off and divide by three, and you will be close to the wholesale market price. So, besides gold, don't buy any other jewelry!
6. Don't believe in any 'golden September and silver October' or 'year-end clearance sales' when buying a car; it's all a gimmick. The truth is that the more holidays you pass, the more expensive the car will be. Not only is it the most expensive during the New Year, but you also have to pay extra to withdraw the car. The cheapest time is still in June, July, and August because sales are the worst during this period.
7. Unless it’s a serious illness or a rare disease, there's not much difference between a several hundred yuan expert appointment, a dozens yuan director appointment, and a few yuan general appointment.
8. Car insurance actually includes several free services, such as fuel delivery, towing, and tire changes. However, as long as the car owner does not ask, the service personnel will definitely not mention them.
9. You might not be able to accept this, but astrology and fortune-telling are all fake; they utilize the Barnum effect. They only provide you with vague predictions, and since you have your own desires, you naturally think they relate to you.
10. At the barbershop, whether you want a perm or dye for 98, 198, 298, or 498 yuan, the products used will be different in packaging but almost identical in cost. Just so you know! The 498 yuan product can be sold for 98, and they can double their profit!
11. If you owe credit card debt and the bank is pressuring you with a summons, don’t panic. Go to the 'Credit Relief Office' and say 'I'm being forced to pay by the bank, negotiations have failed, affecting my life, and I request installment mediation'. Three days later, you will receive a call from the bank for active mediation, and the tone will no longer be 'demanding'. They will speak nicely, waive all late fees, and you will only need to repay a few hundred every month.
12. Items listed as 'free shipping below 10 yuan' or 【free giveaways】 that only require 10 yuan for shipping on Xianyu are all shipped from Pinduoduo. The same items might cost you only 3 yuan for free shipping if you buy them directly from Pinduoduo.
13. When going to an auto repair shop, don't seek out the senior technician, look for the newer ones instead. If a shop is willing to hire them, it means their skills are up to par. The senior technicians have become complacent, thinking only about how to get kickbacks and cut corners, while the newer technicians often work more meticulously, have a better attitude, and are more efficient.
14. The home furnishing industry has 12 major events every year, one each month, each lasting 30 days, and every event offers the year's lowest prices!
15. The origin of Chongqing Chicken Pot is not Chongqing. Currently, there are three rumored origins: Fujian, Chengdu, or Shanghai. However, regardless of which place, there is not a trace of connection to Chongqing. The reason it's called this is that the founder’s name is Zhang! Chong! Qing!
16. The audience appearing in reality shows are all pre-arranged extras, earning 150 yuan a day, with extra pay for crying scenes. You can sign up in part-time groups across major cities, and not only the audience are actors; for emotional programs like (If You Are The One), (Big City, Small Love), or (Love Crisis), even the guests are hired actors. The ads will say: 'Hiring actors, good looks and charm preferred, couples best, direct flights covered, three days, each can pocket 1000 yuan after recording ends, guaranteed.'
17. Fitness trainers, Tony teachers, and psychologists all use the same content for 100 people and then tell you: 'This is tailored specifically for your situation!'
18. The roses you buy on Valentine's Day are mostly 'hybrid roses', so they either have no scent or a strong one; it's all about whether they were sprayed with perfume.
18. For any complaints about express delivery, Meituan, or Taobao stores, remember! Do not just make one complaint call, because during the first call the operator only records your complaint. On the second call, they might convey your issue, and on the third call, it will escalate to a formal complaint. Only then will they send someone who can actually help you to talk.
19. The mooncakes that taste very fruity are mostly made of winter melon filling with flavoring, and this is true for brands of all sizes.
20. When traveling, the stores the tour guide takes you to will definitely not sell 'authentic local specialties' because the products in that store are guaranteed to be shared with the tour guide. You think, 'If the store can earn half the price, you can imagine the quality of the goods.'
21. Do not get a membership card at the barbershop! Not having a card makes you a god, but having a card makes you a target. The former will try to give you the best service to persuade you to get a card, while the latter only wants to exhaust your credit.
22. Hair, like nails, is dead once it grows out; nothing can truly make your hair better. Everything just uses chemical reactions to make your hair silky, deceiving you!
23. Insurance salespeople cannot have a 【successful claim record】 while rising in rank. If a salesperson processes an insurance policy and it genuinely pays out to the beneficiary, the salesperson will receive a penalty.
24. An insurance policy with an annual premium of 5700 yuan can give the salesperson nearly 1000 yuan in 'kickbacks' at once.
26. Disposable chopsticks are the dirtiest. Almost all disposable chopsticks are treated with sulfur, hydrogen peroxide, or bleach. If you pay attention, you will find that no disposable chopsticks dare to label the manufacturer's production information.
27. Many bars and KTVs basically sell 【expired alcohol】 or 【fake alcohol】, which are repackaged and sold again. In that noisy and dim environment, customers won't notice anything unusual.
28. Most phone shops’ 'supply points' are in 'electronic markets'. If you go to the market and see a sales clerk typing a lot on the computer, that person is the supplier.
Just ask if they have a 【quote sheet】. They will ask which store you're referring to, you can make up something like 'Tian Yuan Communications' or a newly opened small phone repair shop, then find the phone you want on the quote sheet and buy it at the wholesale price.
29. If you really want to lose weight, stop drinking yogurt. Most of what's sold in supermarkets is basically 【yogurt-flavored drinks】, and there is definitely white sugar in the ingredients. After layers of processing, the lactic acid bacteria added to yogurt drinks have long been reduced to zero, so drinking yogurt will not only fail to help regulate your gastrointestinal health and promote weight loss but will actually make you gain more weight.
30. Don't believe in the 'beauty self-used iPhone 12' or 'ex-boyfriend's xxx being sold cheap' on Xianyu for over a thousand yuan. Just because you can meet in person doesn't mean it's secure; you might be greeted by a burly man asking you to sign a purchase contract, only to find out later that it's actually an installment contract. The thousand-plus price is just a 'down payment', and you end up with a few thousand yuan in installment debt without getting a good deal.
31. There is a lot of garbage content online that only cares about traffic and attracting attention. Articles as serious and thoughtful as Little Durian truly deserve a thumbs up from everyone!
Let me tell you a secret: those who are tipping the little durian have already achieved success and earned their first pot of gold.
Because I kneel before the stage every day, praying for the audience to tip! Everybody! Get rich!
It's that straightforward! Everybody! Get rich!
