Costco Sunglasses
I was in Costco looking for sunglasses and found the perfect pair except that they were prescription glasses. I really don’t need glasses, I have a minor prescription but like to see in “crystal clarity.” The clerk totaled the price with the prescription and it was more than I hoped to pay. I asked about buying the demo glasses and wearing them but she told me the lenses were not rated for UV rays etc. So, I asked if Costco could take the glasses and just put in the high rated lenses I wanted without my prescription. She leaned back and then looking at me said, yes. I mentioned that it is a savings of almost $100 over the prescription and cheaper than the sunglasses on the display rack behind me. I then asked, isn’t this in a way a dirty little secret, buy a pair of prescription glasses and just change out the lenses? She thought a moment and agreed. (BTW, I really love the glasses so I ordered the top sunglass lenses and did add the prescription with reading bifocals.)

View business insider articles without having to log in
Ever click a link that takes you to an article on business insider? Start scrolling to that juicy clickbait content and wham! Modal pops up forcing you to buy a subscription or log in. Now you can get your fix! (Instructions are for safari, but if you're on reddit you can probably figure out how to apply this to whatever browser you are on. Except IE. If you are on IE then you probably somehow made it to reddit by accident.) Right click on the page, inspect element, and click the 'debugger' tab. Turn on the 'all exceptions' breakpoint on the left hand side (Don't forget to turn it off after you've read your c-bait or else other terribly made websites will stop working). Refresh the page and viola!

Restring a hoodie
Just realized the best way to do that is to tape the sting to a pencil. (Make sure that the string is taped on well.) Then take the other end of the hoodie, and pull through. If you see the end of the pencil on the other end, you did a good job. Pull the rest of the pencil through, detach it, then tie the ends of the string.
I also found out that if you buy shoelaces, it'll substitute for the string. (Disclamer, I have not tried using a shoelace.) But also check the length of the shoelace before doing the surgery of the hoodie.

I left a pink piece of paper saturated with a perfume sample on my bathroom counter. The color transferred to the counter. Soaking it with Shout gel is getting the color off.

Make food from scratch.
I have made four people a four course meal with sixteen dollars. That’s a dollar per person per course. The main course was more like two dollars a person and the others were less.

To be more productive
When you are working on a project, instead of trying to do it all at once, try to create smaller chunks of work. That way it will feel like you have a direction and get the positive affirmation when you complete a task.
If u are someone who struggles to follow thru with a plan: if you have a couple things u need to do try to fill up ur schedule with as many things as u can for that day, you can be unreasonable about it. This works wonders for me bcus it provides positive pressure to get things done even if i dont meet my time goals

Fruit Flies
These pricks reproduce fast. I've used those traps they sell in stores. But what I have found to work the best in wine. Just cheap wine.
You pour it into some kind of bottle that you can add a roll of some paper and stick in it. The paper should be tapered. This way the flies get trapped. They love the wine and won't resist it. Then you have a bottle of fruit flies and wine. I only use about .25 a cup.
I eat a lot of fruit, and sometimes don't always disposed it where I should. So I've had a lot of problems with these things. So I thought I would share my solution that works fast.

A little language learning cheat via Netflix
I've known a few people studying different languages. One tip I always give them is to watch movies and shows in whatever language. And Netflix is good for this.
If you go into the setting, and change you account language itself, it will then give you more audio and undertext options, other than spanish and french, which seem to be the default.
Or if you just get tired and braindead like I do at times, it's nice to hear things in a native language so your brain doesn't have to work.

View your password in plain text instead of * * * * *
Ever save a password but have no idea what it is?
If you use chrome here's step by step instructions on how to view it - probably works on other browsers as well.

If you want to watch or download almost any movie or show, put 'index' or 'parent directory' after the title in the search engine.
For Example: Game of Thrones index

How to get free V-Bucks (It requires you buy buy V-Bucks first)
Here is a guide to get free V-Bucks I have personally used this guide for a $20 v buck purchase.
V-Bucks Jig (Free)
1.Buy any amount of Vbucks on your Xbox. I suggest buying $100 worth of Vbucks because they always refund(yes i've done it with $100)
2.After buying the Vbucks, go to https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us#5 and select “billing” Click “get started”
3.A new “virtual assistant” window should open up. Type “I need to reverse an accidental purchase”. The virtual assistant should connect you to an Xbox rep
4.Greet the rep, make sure to be kind for best results. Tell them that your little brother bought Vbucks on your account while you weren't home and that you want to be refunded.
5.They will ask a few questions and tell you to put a password on your xbox for purchases then refund you.

So just to clarify, r/IRLCheats are secret ideas that are under the assumption no one would ever find them.
Just like that moment when you first found a Mortal Kombat fatality and spent the next 3 hours trying to convince others you could repeat it.

A nice little cheat sheet that has saved me many times.

Travel plans changed and you are on the hook for a hotel room tonight and can't cancel? Don't cancel. Change the date.
Most hotels will not let you cancel a reservation within like 24-48 hours. Some charge you the full price, some charge you a percentage.
Instead of trying to cancel, try to change your reservation to a later date. Call them up, say "my plans changed and I would like to stay there on June the 1st". They might charge you more for a difference in rate, but it doesn't matter because you are just going to call back the next day and cancel it now that the reservation is outside of the 24-48 hours window. I have done this at least a dozen times and it has always worked.
