Story Post: Don’t Ask for Refunds, Keep Every Nickel and Every Dime

Adminned at 16 Jul 2025 17:52:37 UTC

Old folks where I grew up always said that if you weren’t sure about a purchase, it was better to save your money and not buy it at all than to rely on a shop’s refund policy. The customer service industry has advanced since then, but I still find it to be good advice.

Score 2. Kinda needs the flavour text to work, but we’re not here to evaluate flavour text.

Score 3, sound once you understand it but in this day its not as prevalent

Score 4. Hangs together as advice a person would give, seems memorable.

Score 4 This has the tone down, but the different timing between the “ask for” and the “keep” mars the parallel. Still pretty good, though.

Score 3. Good saying, but I don’t like how it sounds.

Score 3 - I like the sound of the phrase personally, but the refunds aspect is contradictory without the flavor text

It’s a good saying, if a bit wordy. Score 4
