Quick plan turns profitable:
Sehrawat explained that he joined the queue just like everyone else, waiting for his turn to try the popular desserts that have recently become a major trend online. By the time he reached the counter, he came up with a plan that many viewers later called “smart”.
Sehrawat decided to purchase a few extra items along with what he originally wanted.
“I bought four banana puddings and four tres leches,” he added.
After collecting his order, he walked to the end of the long queue, where customers were still waiting for their chance to buy something. He approached one of them and offered to sell the extra products at double the price.
The customer agreed immediately. With that simple deal, Sehrawat recovered the money he had spent and ended up getting his own items for free.
