"礼券少年"狂省钱

搜集优惠券、关注打折信息,这一定是大妈们的最爱!不过英国一位小伙子的省钱水平就连大妈们也望尘莫及。

British boy Jordon Cox, 16, is a whizz-kid when it comes to saving his mother money. His personal record is reducing a £105.88 bill to just £1.62. His secret? He is an “extreme couponer”--taking bargain hunting to new levels with the careful use of coupons.

英国16岁的小伙子乔登-考克斯在为母亲省钱上可谓一名神童。他的个人记录是仅仅用1.62英镑就购买了价值105.88英镑的东西。他的秘诀是什么?他是名“超级礼券迷”--充分利用优惠券,这令他的“淘宝”水平上升到新的高度。

[学表达]

1.whizz-kid意为“神童;有为青年”,whizz意为“能手;善于...的人”。

2.when it comes to意为“就...而论;当提到...”,其中to为介词。

3.bargain hunting

bargain有“特价商品”的含义,hunt意为“追逐;猎取”,因此这个词组就意为“淘便宜货”。

4.take sth. to a new level将...提到一个新的水平

Jordon said, “I will not buy anything unless it’s on sale or I’ve got a coupon and I won’t let my mum buy anything full price either--she’s not allowed to put anything in the shopping basket without my permission.”
