My coworker is obsessed with Temu. He buys like 10 things, typically 8 of them are garbage and he returns them and 2 are fine which he keeps.
I've never heard him talk about great things he gets, but he's constantly talking to me about "Look how little I paid for this thing!"
It’s like the hot pocket of stores- take from package, place directly in toilet.
My 60+ mother was like that, until I convinced her to stop. Once she ordered a hat, didn’t like it, so tried to send it back. Temu just gave back her money, and told her to keep it. I bet it’s a quality product
Returns? My wife does the same as your coworker, but anything she doesn't like they refund her and tell her to keep. We call it Freemu.
