    The AI Savings Thread, How Much Time and Money has it Saved You?

    CHAT - AI - 
    My father received some money paid out by the state after my mother’s death. We had called the relevant authority to ask whether the amount was correct, and they confirmed to us that it was. Three years later, my father received a notice that the amount was incorrect—far too high—and that he...

    I'm relatively new to building things with AI. This weekend, I decided to experiment by building a handful of business ideas, including fully functional websites with integrated Stripe payments, booking systems, and more. I've only paid for the domains and used Claude and ChatGPT to build...

    Was out getting groceries the other day. One side effect of doing this flipping stuff is that I have my antennas up everywhere I go. I walked past an aisle and spotted these Weber grill covers on sale. Buying one online would cost around $90, but here they were going for just $15. I grabbed one...

    I have all my inventory in boxes in my basement. Shirt 1, Shoe 2, Book 3 in Box1 Shirt 4, Phone 1, Salt and pebber set 2 in Box2 All this is collected in a Google Sheet. So whenever I've sold something on Vinted, I look in my Google Sheet, search for the item, and write the specific box down...

    A tactic that works fairly well for me on Vinted is sending offers to people who have liked my items, and I tend to do it pretty quickly. Most of the time, the offers will be ignored, but sometimes it works a few times per day. I like to think that I wouldn't have made the sale if I hadn't sent...

    I love dealing with them. They can be slow to sell, but in my experience, it all depends on the product. Everyday books that everyone else sells, and that fill 99% of the shelf space in thrift stores, don't sell. And if they do, they sell slowly and cheaply. But comic books, manga, business...

    Another thought: I've passed 1,200 five-star ratings on Vinted, and I think that helps me sell more items because my profile looks trustworthy and reliable when people visit it and consider buying something from me. My strategy is to: Be honest (with photos, descriptions, damage, flaws...

    I am slowly dipping my toes into buying stock on Vinted, and I think it has great potential because Vinted can be a great place to source inventory. There are other resellers on the platform, but there are also people who simply want to turn their old items into cash as quickly as possible...

    Unless it is damaged in any way, I just put in the title of the book and author in the title, and in description I put language and hardback/paperback. I keep it very simple for 99% of my items. As for photos, 9/10 times I just snap a picture of the front and back. The 1/10 times is for...

    On my way home from work, I drive past two recycling centers where you can pick up free items. Sometimes you're unlucky and leave empty-handed. Today, I picked up some books and DVDs (mostly TV series) and listed them for $315. I've already made my first sale from this haul. Of course, not...

    If you have old listings on Vinted, it might be worth reuploading them to gain more traction. Listings tend to disappear from search results over time, so turning an old listing into a fresh one can bring more attention to the item. Since I started flipping on Vinted in mid-2025, I've grossed...
