    My 30 year old son has severe autism (and is nonverbal), so he generally won't sit thru videos. Except yours. He's kinda got a bit of a crush on you, I think. He gets real red in the face and flaps his hands excitedly when he sees you on the screen. Lol today he laughed so hard during your parrot conversation and when you had tiny tea party idea he absolutely belly laughed. Music to my ears. Thanks for being you, from 3½ hours south of you in southern MO.

    Hi Jamie! Here in Brazil Lenovo is a popular tech brand for many years now. I used to have a laptop from them and it was fine. The thing is that they have some products with more acessible price that aren't so good quality as the more expensive ones. But they are ok. I think they are so cheap to buy in US because they have a headquarters in North Carolina. Fun fact: Ashton Kutcher used to be a product engineer and spokesman for Lenovo.

(Amazon sells lead testing kits - you rub a swab over the item and then use a few drops of a solution and the solution changes color if it detects lead) - I don’t know if we should actually be concerned, but I’m buying a lead testing kit anyway to test flea market and thrift store items.

    I made the mistake of sizing up because previous experience with another company. Temu sizing is pretty accurate. I am a L or Xl and can buy those sizes in regular or OXL in curve. I bought 4 bathing suits and they were of excellent quality and value, I did size up and they are too big. I just opened my pool this week so will see how they hold up to daily chlorine exposure. I have ordered about 7 times from Temu and most everything has been excellent. What I wasn’t happy with was either immediately refunded with no need to return or was credited immediate upon dropping off to ups or canada post. I had two dresses that were so short they barely covered my butt. I am tall at 5’10. I learnt to take measurements of my body and only order clothing I can check against measurement sizing. I also watch pics/videos of clothing people buy. There’s been a few items I have been interested only to find they look fuller and better material in the ads. I control my notifications and thus far haven’t been bothered with emails and texts.
    Their paper crafting items are amazing. Same paper products I have seen on Amazon, esty. Not copies, the exact same. Quality of most items I have purchase are superior to dollar store. Dollar store paper extremely thin.
    Husband bought “iPod like” earbuds 3 months ago and uses them daily for work, still working fine for $7. Only differences between them and my $200 JBLS are, mine last forever on one charge and his only 4 hrs of continued use, mine have crisper sound and better base. But for the price you can’t complain. I have seen popular US company steal a stamp design off a designer friend who owns her own business and sell it in one of their monthly subscription card kits. Stealing designs is nothing new. 😢

It's such great advice! The reasons these companies are so cheap is often do to things like the horrific working conditions that are sometimes actual slave labor. Not to mention the environmental impact these companies have. I understand sometimes having no choice but to buy from places like this when money is tight and other circumstances, or even if you see something you might like. I just really appreciate that Jamie is urging us to do our best as consumers to do our research and think about what we are buying

I wish it was somehow centralized, through laws or something, to have every product state clearly in what conditions it was made, otherwise so much time needs to be spent to find where and what to get if one wants to avoid sweatshops.

Their employment is a different form of exploitation, though related to the similar desire to generate a profit." So yes they are working in abhorrent sweatshops and bei g abused and taken advantage of. But we do not know for sure if all of them are in actual forced labor conditions. That doesnt excuse these companies or say its ok to buy from them I was just pointing out that fact that like Shein for example there was a worry they were getting cotton that was processed via forced labour from Uyghur detainees.

    I've ordered from Temu & I was really happy with what I got. However I got storage containers of different types & the fake candles that use batteries. Those candles are so expensive everywhere else & I needed a large amount. I think I paid $20 for all I got, & on Amazon it's like 20 for 3. I wouldn't buy clothes or other certain items, but home things I totally recommend.

      Actually I bought clothes and they were pretty good. No complains. I would say they were rainbow/primark quality and prices.... I always read the reviews though. It it doesn't get good reviews with pictures then I don't bother.

    I literally signed up, filled my cart, and low key started having an anxiety attack with the purchase button. Cause the few negative reviews I read prior kept racing thru my mind and I refused to become a victim of Temus customer service. Ty for reading my mind with this review. The money gods where with me and saved me a headache and my dollars. Cappuccino Blast here I come 🍦 ☕ ☀️

      I still wouldn’t support this company or any like them (shein, Ali express, etc.) It’s well known these companies that are usually based in China and sell extremely cheap products exploit their workers through slave labor & atrocious working conditions and the products are full of harmful chemicals. Not to mention because the products are so cheap and don’t last long, they’ll be sitting in landfills for thousands of years and they’re mass-produced at such a fast rate each company is an environmental disaster in itself.

    the true cost should be heavily considered. The human cost in the production, the environmental cost in the material and processing.
