Verónica Menditto, also known as "Miss Ofertas by Vero" on social media, impressed her followers with a clever strategy to buy a box of Havanna alfajores for $20,000 and ended up winning $6,000 thanks to accumulated cashbacks of 130%.
The tactic, detailed on her Twitter account, is based on combining two YOY cards, splitting the payment, and taking advantage of the special weekend cashback that refunds 130% of the amount for food expenses, with a cap of $10,000 per transaction.
In Verónica's words: "Savings engineering!"
To carry out her strategy, Verónica paid the first half of the price of the box with one YOY card, benefiting from the 100% cashback on food. Then, she paid the second half with another YOY card, applying the same benefit. Thanks to the weekend promotion that returns 130% of the spending in cafes, Verónica ended up obtaining $6,000 more than she had spent.
The post quickly went viral, generating mixed opinions among those who praised her creativity and those who deemed the strategy excessive.
Verónica humorously commented: "Savings engineering!", while several followers began sharing their own experiences taking advantage of similar promotions.
