In the past, the life of young people focused on "exquisite + expensive", and it seems that only in this way can they reflect their identity and value.
But after the consumption downgrade, today's young people are very different from before, and they have started to "reverse comparison", not to spend money, but only to save money more than anyone, and the "routine" is more than one another!
1. Cosmetics only need to have "flaws".
Beginning to accept "blemishes" or "second-hand cosmetics" is a big change for young people nowadays!
When you see a skin care product you like, you won't place an order directly, but first search for "defective products", or "second-hand", the same thing, the price is much lower.
That is: I want a can of cream, the original price is more than 200, but I found a defect on the Internet, that is, the bottle is a little scratched, and I can take it as long as I am in my early 100s.
After getting my hands on it, I went to the counter to check it, it was genuine, and I was super happy.
In addition to the defective models, she sometimes goes to the second-hand platform to find some samples, such as foundation liquid and blush, which are used less in themselves, and a little sample can be used for a long time.
At first, she was worried that it would be a bit embarrassing to buy such a product, but when she shared it with her colleagues and friends, she found that many people bought it like this, and everyone compared who bought it cheaper, haha, I didn't expect young people to roll up in this track.
2. Women's clothing only buys "cut labels".
How expensive women's clothing is now, you can know it once you visit the mall, a summer skirt costs thousands of yuan at every turn, and three or four hundred short sleeves, which is really unaffordable for young people.
Therefore, many people began to find another way to search for "cut standard models", which are at least half cheaper.
There are also some "internal price" products, for example, if you see a brand product, the price is too expensive, then you can take the picture to search for the same model, there is really the same model in the shopping mall, and the price is much cheaper.
3. Only buy snacks that are on the expiration date
Today's young people are too capable of "reverse comparison", I remember one day at work, my colleague took a bottle of Fanta with a 50% off, saying that it was adventurous, and he was complacent.
Then another colleague took out the potato chips that were expiring and said, "It's only one yuan."
We didn't believe it, and she sent a photo as proof, sure enough, it's cheaper, and there is a 20-day shelf life, the taste has no effect at all, but the price is directly broken, cost-effective.
Talking to colleagues, someone said,
4. Only buy discounted fruits and vegetables
In the past, I definitely wouldn't pay special attention, but after the sharp drop in income, I suddenly felt that I had to cut back on expenses, and now I will pay attention to the discount time of vegetables downstairs, and go downstairs to grab it after 8 o'clock.
I didn't think there was any difference when I bought it, I ate it the next day if it wasn't too fresh, and I could put it for two days if it was fresh, but most of it was pretty good, and it wasn't as bad as I imagined.
Not to mention vegetables, I also buy bread, cakes, and fruits at a discount, and when the bakery is about to get off work, it will be 5% off directly, and it will be breakfast the next morning, which is not too cost-effective.
5. Daily necessities are only cheap
My roommate bought 100 sheets of A4 paper, and my front teeth were about to fall out.
My roommate grabbed a box of kiwi for a penny, but it was too sour to find customer service, and the customer service refunded five yuan, and I was more sour than kiwifruit.
My best time, I got two large boxes of brand paper towels for a dime of wool, and I used it for almost a year, and my friends were envious.
Haha, your "reverse comparison" routine is also ridiculous, which is enviable.
6. Storage supplies are free as long as they are free
The high point of young people's "reverse comparison" can be said to be vividly displayed in the storage industry, as long as it can be reused, it will never cost a penny, yes, they don't buy it.
There are several soap boxes, and the stagnant water has to be cleaned, which is troublesome, so young people directly use a mineral water lid and buckle it on the soap, so that the soap can be suspended, clean and hygienic, and it doesn't cost anything, the key is that it is too convenient to use.
For young people, milk tea bags can solve most of the pain points in life, such as paper bags, face towel storage bags, refrigerator fruit and vegetable storage bags, umbrellas, hair dryers, etc., which are very useful.
All kinds of iron boxes with outer packaging are also used by young people for storage, storing needles and threads, dry kitchen goods, laying foam storage accessories, raising flowers and plants, etc., none of which are wasted.
Not only do they not like to spend money, but free things also have to be reused, which is witty enough.
Written at the end of the article
"Reverse comparison" shows the new consumption trend of young people, which is not only a change in the consumption concept, but also a deep understanding of the essence of life, leading a healthy and sustainable consumption trend, which is worthy of our deep thought and learning.
