Pudong consumption coupons are getting harder to snag every time. Here are a few tricks.

First, timing is everything. Set a timer 30 seconds before the drop. Second, pre-fill your information β€” watching the countdown while typing is a recipe for failure. Third, try multiple platforms. Different apps have different inventory pools. Fourth, don't give up on the waitlist β€” many people who waitlisted got their coupons within 24 hours as others' reservations expired.

Good luck, and may the internet gods be with you.
