To do this trick, you must not be able to afford the item you want, but you must, however, be able to afford at least one other item. You need to have enough GP so that if you used coupons on the desired item you would be able to afford it. First, start by selecting a buyable item as if you intended to purchase it. Then, add enough coupons so that if added towards the desired item, it would discount enough GP for you to afford it. Cancel the buy. Next, select the "unaffordable" item you want. It will appear as though you want to buy 0 of the item. Do not add coupons and confirm the buy. The item will no longer be in the shop inventory and will now be in yours. Note: If this trick is used on consumable items, they will not be usable by you; instead, the consumable item purchased with the above method will only appear when using any shop's "Sell" option. You will have 0 of the item but will be able to sell only one, no matter how many times you "purchased" the consumable before going to the shop.
