I know inflation is beating everybody, but at some point you have to ask questions. How is a Bluetooth speaker $3?
Temu's prices feel like the kind of thing your village people would send you to distract you from financial prosperity. The funny thing is that Temu isn't necessarily a scam. Their model cuts out middlemen, sources directly from manufacturers, and sometimes sells at razor-thin margins or even losses to acquire customers.
But let's be honest. When something is unbelievably cheap, your brain automatically starts looking for the catch.
Maybe it's the fact that the product photo was taken on an iPhone and the actual product was photographed on a calculator.
Maybe Temu is legitimate. Maybe we're just not psychologically prepared for prices this low.
Or maybe we're all one click away from buying a solar-powered banana slicer we'll never use.
What's the weirdest thing you've seen on Temu?

The countdown timer saying "offer ends in 5 minutes" has been ending for three months.
Temu makes me feel like I'm either getting the greatest deal of my life or becoming the deal myself
