TEMU

Temu... Bargains verses Quality

Some items are a merely 5/10 in quality.
Most are pretty good to very good. 
Prices are very good to exceptional.
Finding the right mix yields great bargains.
Just read everything carefully... Especially sizes in metric. 

Watch for exceptional bargains that they will entice you with... 
Like one item at 70-90% off. A good deal, add something you need to get to the $10 free shipping. 


They send other promotions... BEWARE... LIKE 5 items free ( the list is filed with items $3 or less) but must order 3 items from a list to get the free stuff.  ( the list for the buy items is mostly all over $20). I'm not going to buy 3 items at $60 that I don't absolutely need, to get those 5 free items. 

They will send you email or text everyday to offer bargains... To entice you to order. Be careful... needs turn into wants and you could go crazy.  



Free shipping on orders over $10.
So it's beneficial to hit the $10 mark.
As you look through the hundreds of offerings, save prospective bargains to the wish list. Providing easy access to items that you want so you can quickly hit the $10 mark.

Strategy:
Just about every order I make is just over $10. So over time in might get $50 worth of stuff on 5 different orders. Those 5 orders ship separately  on different days (ordered 2 days apart ).
Of the 5 orders for different days.  2 arrived late via USPS ( they are terrible here)... So I got a $5 credit each of the 2 orders that arrived late. One package got misplaced for several days passing the delivery date... deemed lost... and got a full refund credit... then 8 days late after the delivery date,  USPS finally found the package, delivered it... but I still got the refund to use on future purchases. 
So, multiple orders of $10 verses on of $50... Gives you 5 chances for late delivery and refund credits. 
Note: most things are 8-12 days delivery... So if you need it quick... Go Amazon. 

I've got lots of great bargains. 

Get bargains you need, possibly some you want, don't over buy just to get bargains. 

Today I ordered 2 - 3D printed shirts... $2.54 (bargain price) and a second at $6.57... another $1 trinket put me just over $10... ordered!

Nice garden flags under $3
3x5 flag/eagle... $2.74
Very nice sunglasses $3.29
Very nice Dragon 3D shirt... $6.57 attached to some bigger bargains to reach $10 order. Like the ring for $1.58 or the Harry Potter 9 3/4 pocket watch collectible. 

Happy shopping!
