I’m addressed as ‘my dear’ and ‘my friend’ in notifications.
I’m given, oh, I don’t know 20 ‘special, just for me’ deals and discounts a day.
Thanked profusely for putting things in my cart. (I swear I didn’t do that)
I’ve given them a precursory glance. Never ordered the first thing.
Now folks around here, I won’t name names, use the site alot. So I assume I got in that way.
I’ve never even gone that far. I’ve heard the word (here?) but I’m not sure even what it is. A discount shopping thing?
Never got around to ordering anything…but still receiving overly friendly “exclusive” offers several times a day.
Madame P. and our 40+ year old daughter buy lots of fibbledy bits and shiny things from Temu. At least it’s inexpensive. Madame DID get me a very nice red jacket there, though.
I see ads pop up for Temu regularly. The one ad that had links to sex toys, which showed up on my work computer, was amusing, if extremely NSFW.
Yes. It’s Alibaba on steroids.
The lil’wrekker loves it for junky earrings, socks and makeup thingys.
Ivy has just noticed they have crafting supplies.
I predict a lot more deliveries.
I feel so special😊
I did look at something on Temu, and Citibank was kind enough to point out that I can buy it.
Those do seem to be ridiculous prices. I presume that slave labor enters into their expenses, or rather, lack of.
It’s pretty much dollar store quality items. But sometimes that’s all you need.
I wish I saw ads for anyone but them on the board, but that’s all I get anymore.
They’re everywhere. Phone, computer, iPad, TV.
You cannot hide.
Yesterday I was called “honey” and “dear” in the same sentence by a checker at Kroger.
It’s practically like being in an illicit relationship.
Until the checker calls your phone you’re safe.
Wait … was that the phallic-shaped balloon tie-er? Or some honest-to-goodness sex toy? I haven’t seen the latter, but I was confused by the balloon contraption.
A great many of their products look like sex toys, and some are.
I actually saw the ad for the balloon tie-er yesterday, but no, the ad that I’d seen a few weeks ago was for an honest-to-goodness vibrator.
I let Temu spam my mailbox for about three weeks but they never once had any coupons or discounts beyond the generic “a bajillion items are discounted!” stuff so I cut them off and changed my mail to shipping stuff only.
A lot of things seem to be “extras” of real liscened products produced by factories and sold with generic names and low prices. Like Creative Cartoon Funny Mouse:
I have no explanation for I Smell Children, though.
Thrilling Flower Skull Brooch Creative Pumpkin shows a mix of Grinch and Nightmare Before Christmas items. But I think you get only one pin?
Pretty much anything can be a sex toy once.
