Why it worked

The post likely resonated due to its relatable story of navigating international pricing and currency conversion, highlighting a common consumer concern and a humorous resolution where the creator cleverly secured a better deal.

Summary

The creator recounts an experience in St. Tropez where they were quoted €600 for an IV, but later received an invoice showing a "US price" of $250 for the same service. After questioning the discrepancy, they were able to secure the IV for $250 by pointing out the incorrect currency conversion.

On-screen text

I'm in st tropez and got quoted €600 over the phone for an IV They sent me the invoice and accidentally sent me their 'US prices' & the same IV was priced at $250 (normal pricing btw) When I told them they sent me a different price they tried to explain that the €600 was after the conversion..... Anyway I got my IV for $250 cause they ain't playing me like a fiddle & I let them know I know how conversions of currency work and $250 does not equal €600 lol
