Deep News
Nov 01

Before emptying your cart, take note! Many shoppers miss out on stacking "National Subsidies" with Double 11 promotions, costing them hundreds. Here’s a simplified timeline to ensure you maximize savings:

**Key Reminders** - The unified promo code for Alibaba’s Tmall/Taobao and JD.com this year is **"Skyfall Red Packet 8877"** (search daily for larger rewards). - National Subsidy access: JD.com search **"Subsidy Drop 678"** (renewable daily at 8 PM). Taobao: search **"Subsidy Here"** for discounts up to ¥2,000 per item.

**Critical Deadlines** 1. **National Subsidy Cutoff**: December 31 (24:00), but some provinces (e.g., Henan, Hunan) close mid-December; Xinjiang and Pingxiang have already stopped. 2. **Peak Discount Windows**: October 30 (20:00) and November 10 (20:00)—combine platform coupons, red packets, and subsidies for maximum savings.

**Step-by-Step Timeline** (Example for October 30 purchase): - **Oct 30, 19:55**: Set a reminder. Add items to cart but wait until 20:00 to checkout when prices drop further. - **Oct 30, 15:00**: Secure National Subsidy vouchers (48-hour validity). JD: Search **"Subsidy Drop 678"**; Taobao: **"Subsidy Here"**. - **Oct 29**: Photograph old device SN codes (required for electronics subsidies). - **Oct 28**: Ensure shipping address matches ID verification (rejections occur for mismatches). - **Oct 27**: Accumulate red packets (JD: 3x daily searches for **"Skyfall Red Packet 8877"**; Taobao: 1x).

**Savings Example**: A ¥4,999 phone - National Subsidy: ¥500 (15% cap) - Platform Discount: ¥1,000 (Double 11 exclusive) - Red Packets: ¥500 (3-day streak) **Final Price**: ¥2,999 (¥2,000 saved). Missing the subsidy voucher could mean paying ¥3,999—a ¥1,000 loss.

**Pro Tips** - Assist elderly family members by sharing search instructions. - Avoid third-party "subsidy agents"—scams may void eligibility. - Refunds delay subsidy quota returns; plan purchases carefully.

**Quick-Reference Checklist** 27 Oct: Claim red packets → 28 Oct: Verify address → 29 Oct: Prepare SN codes → 30 Oct (15:00): Get subsidy → 30 Oct (20:00): Check out.
