So I saw an ad for this cool looking led strip thing you can put in your car and then it has lots of settings.
Clicked the link and it took me to Temu, figure sure I’ll give it a go and download the app.
OMFG what the heck is this gamified shopping?
When it loaded I swear to Odin it went like a casino and said you can get the item you clicked on for free and you can choose another 5 items.
So I’m browsing through all this crap I don’t really want and adding things to move on. After selecting all free items it then said you win again or something and gave me more things to pick.
Then at the end it’s like right spend $35 to get all the other stuff for free, but said the original thing I clicked to get was not available. It’s like a bait and switch and I’m thinking I don’t any of this really I just wanted the cool led strip thing and to be left alone.
Honestly I really can’t believe people would use this place at all.
I do tend to do most of my purchasing locally if I can and I don’t shop at Amazon and I’m actively trying to boycott American companies.
I am curious about quality though. China makes everything pretty much so it’s likely most of the stuff comes from the same factories making good stuff?
I’d guess the difference is quality control. Temu and the like sell completely uncontrolled, no labels of approval, no standards and without consumer rights.
