LPT Getting Bottled Water for Free at a Hotel If you need/don’t want to spend money on bottled water, just go to the front desk at your hotel and ask if they have water. They’ll give you at least one if not a couple bottles of water no questions asked. Edit: This has worked for me in USA/different cities. I’m not sure about global submitted by /u/cohocho66

LPT: If you want to quit smoking (or any habit like caffeine), try using a special occasion or enjoyable trip as your starting point. If you’re considering quitting smoking, caffeine, or anything else, start on a vacation or another enjoyable, low-stress occasion (not something stressful like a family reunion). When you’re in a new place, you’ll likely be absorbed in your surroundings, planning activities, and soaking up the environment, so you might naturally think less about…

LPT: Check price per ounce to make smarter buying decisions When shopping for stuff, use the price per ounce (or price per unit) to get the best value for your money. Instead of just looking at the sticker price, check the cost per ounce, which is usually listed on the shelf tag next to the product’s price. This allows you to easily compare brands and sizes. submitted by /u/thebodybuildingvegan

LPT: Focus on engaging your 5 senses if you start to feel anxious. When you catch yourself spiraling into negative or anxious thoughts, try the “5-4-3-2-1” grounding technique. Look around and name: 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. This technique helps bring your focus back to the present moment, which can reduce anxiety an…

LPT—- how to understand the pronouns (they/them) used singularly First things first and upfront I am token gay dude, as dude as dude can be, yet also as gay is gay.

LPT: If you need to free up your hands before getting into your car, set things on the hood, not the roof. We’ve all had that moment where our hands are full and we need to fish out our keys or whatnot, so we set what we are holding on the roof, figuring we won’t forget it up there. And generally you don’t forget, hopefully never have, but the risk does exist that you will drive off with it still up there. If you set it on the hood of your car on the…

LPT: sometimes the best deal is to only buy what you need One of the small but impactful things I learned from my father is that sometimes the best deal is to buy only what you need. This one time we went to buy a spatula for around 10$ and I noticed that we could get 2 for 12$. The response I got: “what do I need a second spatula for?” submitted by /u/ios_dev0

LPT: Just accept being slightly hungry at all times for a few days and you will loose weight (if that’s what you want) It really isn’t that bad after a day or two. Eat until you are almost full. That’s it. No diet, no exercise, no 4 week life changing program with exotic berries and avocado tea. Just be a little bit hungry. submitted by /u/Gaddan

LPT The proportion is this, the exact proportion: Do a quality job now in 20 hrs and in the future it will take you 2. Now, make a piss poor job in 10 minutes and in the future it will take you 20 hours to make an even piss poorer job submitted by /u/Tasty-Weight3893

LPT: How to get great concert seats as cheaply as possible Hey Guys! I’ve gone to over 100 concerts over the last three years and wanted to share everything I’ve learned here in case anyone else finds it to be helpful.

LPT: I keep getting free drinks at McDonald’s I don’t drink soda. I find it way too sweet. Same with sweet tea. That is why every time I go to McDonald’s I use the app to make sure I order half sweetened sweet tea. Then when I go through the window, I’d say 3/5 times I go, they mess up and give me regular sweet tea. Since they hand you the drink first, I always make sure to quickly try it. …

LPT: Always remember to wear a bra to a 4DX movie Last night I went to watch a movie in 4DX and went bra free. It was a surprisingly uncomfortable experience. It didn’t even occur to me that I might need one but I really did. So here I am, and this is my tip: to all who require breast support, save yourself the discomfort and remember to wear a bra to a 4DX movie. submitted by /u/Caffe…

LPT: When crop dusting, begin the release before the pass. If you observe the airplanes that dump water over a wildfire, they release the tank early because the forward momentum carries the water ahead to more accurately hit the flames. Similarly, you should release the “tank” at least 1 – 2 strides before passing the intended recipient to ensure maximum coverage. If you time it right, they’ll be surro…

LPT Flossing used to be the worst part of my day I used to use regular floss, but it always made my gums bleed, and I just hated the feeling of that string between my teeth. I didn’t want a bulky water flosser taking up space in my tiny bathroom, so I thought a 2-in-1 electric toothbrush could be the way to go. I was disappointed at first cuz most of the ones I found had separate heads for bru…

LPT: How to lie to customer service, and why it’s often necessary. I’m kind of a mad inventor/scientist which means I keep looking for items to be used outside of their original intended purpose, which means I get a lot of flak from customer service if I make the mistake of being honest over why I want something. But that same flak happens to people for totally mundane reasons all the time. I’ll give you an exa…
