_AxCx_ posted a blog which mentioned Temu and it has me curious and wondering whether anyone orders from Temu and have they been satisfied with their purchase? One of my friends has purchased through Temu and from what I can see, it's just crap and I do mean CRAP.
I did when it first launched. I saw some hair thing on instagram. I had to order a minimum.I ordered these patterned fishnets for Halloween, the hair thing, and some Sanrio stickers for my desk . The stickers were okay, as were the fishnets but the hair thing sucked and didn’t work.
I deleted the app from my phone and cleared my cache after.
Here’s an article about TEMU: only registered users can see external links
My friend has purchased through Temu for well over one year and I can't say that I've ever thought of anything as a "great buy" or a "bargain".
Last year she was proud to reveal that she snagged two cross body "leather" purses for some ridiculous price, like $14.95. She showed them to me, they felt like vinyl, they smelled like vinyl, dammit, they were vinyl. She showed me the description which asserted they were "leather" and yes, the description indicated they were PU (polyurethane) "leather". For my birthday, she gave me a "sterling silver" necklace, very pretty and I wear it all the time. On an aside, for driving and distance I wear eyeglasses, when I'm not using them, for convenience I will hang them off of the neckline of whatever I'm wearing. My eyeglasses have two small magnets, one on each side, to attach the sunglass thingy to. So here's where this detail is going to.....one day I missed my neckline and my darn eyeglasses magnetically grabbed the so-called "sterling silver" necklace. The necklace is pretty, it's shiny, it hasn't turned my neck green (yet) however it is questionable whether it's sterling silver or just silver in color.
There's lots of stuff getting delivered here from Temu, but it's my girlfriend that orders it. Sometimes it's crap, but more often she likes it. She just got a dress that she's happy with.
I have never ordered anything myself from Temu, but it looks very similar to AliExpress,
of which I have ordered some things. For example, several LED light modules that I can only find on AliExpress, which are also very cheap. I have not found those on Temu yet. That would be nice, because Temu has faster shipping.
My post about Temu is based on the several things she's shown me that she has purchased. I actually don't know what she's paid for those things however I subscribe to the idea that you get what you pay for.
The crossbody purses that she bought were definitely not leather. Did she pay $5.00 for them? I don't know. She did buy what I thought was a cute one piece lounge outfit. She ordered what she thought would fit her but apparently it didn't. She didn't like how the smocking grabbed her and the garment was too short. She asked me if I wanted it and like I said, very cute so I was excited having the opportunity to try it on. So strange, I wasn't able to discern which was the front versus what was the back. I stepped in through the neckline pulled it up and the left shoulder kept slipping down off my shoulder. I stepped out, spun the garment around, pulled it back up and BOOM!, now the right shoulder kept slipping down. When I took the garment off, it didn't take much to detect what the problem was. In my opinion, the garment was irregular as one shoulder had a longer length of elastic than the other side.
As for quick shipping, she recently purchased some type of screening for her outdoor porch patio area. This screening was under $20.00, it took 5 weeks to get to her and came in some makeshift box that was held together with yards upon yards of cellophane packing tape.
Saxx men’s underwear was originally pitched on
Dragons Den, Canada‘s version of Shark Tank.
He was declined by everyone but the viewing
audience had other plans for his company.
Very cool! Although it seems that you choose to be naked rather than being clothed, there probably is a time when you wear underwear. I'm curious, do you own any Saxx men's underwear and if you do, what are your thoughts?
Oh, apparently the Survivor player, Drew Basile lost, yeah? I read some articles that folks didn't like him because he acted like a pompous jerk when he won. By the way, did Jeopardy's Cat look like the CAT who was here?
I totally agree with the dislike of Drew. I was really hoping he wouldn’t make it to five games because now we have to see him in the tournament of champions.
The last 7 or 8 minutes of that is some barefooted fellow sitting indian style on his couch eating out of a bowel with his hands???
but as for cats, I am concerned, there was a stray cat in my yard last night! Eyes glowing by the golf cart lights, could it be cat has morphed and traveled north?????
since i found out that squirrels eating the insolation off the electric wires is why my neighbors house burned down, I am thinking of getting a cat or 2. keep them chased away. The hawks are not doing their job!
By the way, I noticed that my "predictive text" apparently changed "looking" to "cooking" and for the record, I edited my post to correctly reflect LOOKING.
I paid $8.286 per American gallon just yesterday at my local servo 🦘 $2.189 per Lt & that's only for 91 octane, the cheapest one before the sugar shit --------------------------------------- added after 5 minutes
With the fuel light on in my Mazda 3, its a modern one, cost $100 bucks to fill usually, gets me bit over 450km (280 miles)
So when you say 1/2 ton is that load capacity, like most of our utes over here (pickups/trucks what I'm figuring your speaking about saying truck) are rated to 1 ton capacity, its a tax thing for tradies mostly, covers our 4 door utes as well so they can use it for a familly trucsker, I'd actually like to see one loaded with a measured ton though 🤣🤣 --------------------------------------- added after 3 minutes
You guys would be imperial or US ton I would imagine, our metric ton is different I think, but not to much, could be bothered Google at the moment on phone (cell 🤭
Well that is the label the factory puts on it, if you buy tags for weight the trucks will handle much more, this week it will have a total vehicle weight about 5 tons for about 350 miles.
my older truck has dual tanks, about 37 gallons total
Filled up last night fuel light on, fuel has come down a little $7.91 a gallon ($2.089 Lt) $93.99 a tank, -$4.05 discount with my Uber tier 🥳.
Since doing food/alcohol delivery, the biggest expense is fuel of course, so keep a closer eye on these these days, so they advertise $2.08 per lt, but your actually charged $2.089 per lt, they all do it, just another fuel rip off charging more or less a unadvertised 1c per lt more
Fuck thanks for reminding me, I have a bill due this week.
I don't understand my electricity bill, there are different rates at different times & stuff, this bill is $300 for a 1/4, I'll PM you a screen shot of the figures if you wanted to continue the conversation here if you can make head or tail of it, it would be interesting to see a comparison actually, since our fuel is at least twice of yours by look.
I sent you a copy, FYI even though I don't understand the guts of my bill, that is the cheapest provider, well maybe that's not quite the right term, the power comes from the government at it source, the people that charge, would they be better described as vendors maybe 🤷♀️
yea, and in about 500 or so miles, fill it up again.
of course I don't drive alot all the time,truck may sit 4 or 5 days, if I make a local run, i use the old 1 that does a bit better on gas.
I don't know what it like over there but they blame the Ukraine war effecting the price of a barrel of crude here, its just a fucking excuse, the war hasn't been going on forever.
Doesn't Diesel come from the same barrel 🤷♀️
So why would it be that diesel sits steady in price & our unleaded for example at its cheapest $1.79lt to $2.49Lt its all just bullshit & lies 🤷♀️
There maybe but here diesel here typically was always more expensive that guzzaleen, diesel is still more expensive when our guzzaleen is cheap, but when our guzzaleen is expensive diesel is cheaper than it. Diesel seems to be fixed, more or less, but guzzaleen goes up & down.
The excuse we get on the cost of guzzaleen & it's fluctuation is because of the fluctuating price on a barrel of crude.
Both guzzaleen & diesel come from the same barel, so the whole fucking thing is bare faced lies 🤷♂️
Gas has been crazy high here. In a small city 8 miles north of me, their gas was $3.359 when ours was $3.699. On Monday, the price of gas in my town went up not pennies, but 20 cents per gallon and that's a big jump!
In ft,lauderdale the gas prices ar between 3.19-3.35 for regular at most stations, 93 octane, which I use is running about 3.99 a gal. Still sounds cheap compares to prices in Europe and Australia.
Oh, I knew you were just kidding. Strangely, I have memberships to BJ's, Costco and Sam's Club. BJ's is the closest and it's slightly more than 20 miles away. By the time I drive for their more cost effective gas and return home, I've driven 40 miles, used 1.5 gallons of gas and probably a total of 45 minutes of my time. I'm serious, I live in BF Nowhere....
And in the Fort Lauderdale area and as in Fort Myers area, both tourist destinations, I would anticipate higher gas prices. This is a little Podunk town in Michigan and I DO NOT understand why gasoline has to be $3.899, that seems unreasonably high.
Looks like lix would have her panties in a bunch, too bad she doesn't wear them.
My guess is that she referred someone to the Evaluation Panel for deletion on the 10th of September. My guess is that the referral was dismissed HOWEVER, the first person voting at 03:40 left a comment that was totally unnecessary. Hey, lix, that referral appeared to be open for at least 20 hours, surely you had time to see who posted that comment, but it wasn't me.
No worries, I reached out to admin hoping he could help, there's no need for Whatsupcocks to keep an "eye" on me. From the for what it's worth department, I wasn't online for 6 or 7 days, this kinda drama was getting to me, so really, it wasn't me. Have make it a good day, you can't help that you're a hater and haters are gonna hate.
Go to Aussieman's thread and you will see it there. She's so hell bent that I posted the comment, she probably can't get her fuck on. And like I said, Whatsupcocks said he would keep his eye (bella) open. Give me a break! Then there's admin, who can not or will not, stay unbiased. When he responded to my private message, he said that I demanded, yes, demanded that the response that the referring member would receive would be from "anonymous" but he neglected to take the link off the response that would jump the member to the Abuse Page and they can view which member voted which way. I didn't want members contacting me about my vote. I am one of few members that provide a reason. Even if I agree, I will always say, "as stated".
I find it difficult to wrap my head around the idea that she was not online within the 20 hour period. Meh, something for her to bitch about and speculate that it was me. She is so fricken blinded by her "hate" toward me. Hey, lix, it wasn't me and contrary to your opinion, I have only one profile and IF someone pretends to be me, my guess it is Skittles or cody8789. Also, like I said, that was within the timeframe of that I was not on the website.
Were you awake and on a Thursday "morning" posting at 3:40? I don't think you were. But if admin finds out that it was you, he will revoke your voting privilege.
admin does not take this lightly, nor do I. Do you realize that every time she is insulted, it flips back on me. Think about it, years ago, when there was a group was formed about her, admin blamed me for that, even though I didn't come up with the concept, I didn't use my points to create and when another member brought the attitude into the forum, I tried to calm it down. The other day she was called a "walrus", i can't remember in what context, but admin pointed fingers at me and said something about "my group". I don't have a fricken group.
You've got to be aware that lix thinks very highly of herself and that if members say negative things about her, she THINKS it's because I fire y'all up and prompt you to say those things. And the same thing goes for Candy. You guys, there's several of you, can treat her like shit and she's okay with it. And then there are the sometimes that "your" actions will cause her to get shitty with me.
You want to call anyone a name here, do me a favor, make sure your name is attached to it. I don't need any of these "shit for brains" women thinking I'm behind anything. I am a MATURE person, I own what I say and I don't hide behind anonymous posts.
Walrus is not one of my trade names for her so being that it was 3:40 am and walrus was the name I would say I’m not the culprit it must be some one else she pissed off --------------------------------------- added after 10 minutes
How would it be even possible to vote on the abuse panel make a comment and not know who posted it I’m not understanding this
I didn't say anything about the voter referring to her as a walrus, the other day someone called her a walrus in the forum. And, of course, that was all "my fault".
Apparently, if a referral is "dismissed", no record is kept. She's so damn angry, and I would be too, she can't think straight. My impression, based on the comments, the member is still here OR it she is unable to find the profile, they voluntarily deleted their profile. The only record admin has and keeps is the record of SUSPICIOUS profiles, that were PREVIOUSLY BANNED. If the member was not banned, he keeps no record of the referral.
IF THERE'S ANYONE THAT'S "FRIENDLY" with lix and could ask her why it took her 3 weeks to ask and be pissed off, I would be interested in knowing.
I deleted the app from my phone and cleared my cache after.
