“You Didn’t Iron It”: Woman Disappointed by Pants From an Online Retailer, SA in Stitches

• A local lady ordered pants from Temu, but what she received was a comically oversized pair, which she showed online
• The babe shared a TikTok video of herself laughing off the pants as they swallowed her whole, clearly a sizing mishap
• Social media users were in stitches, shocked that she went for the pants in the first place, with some advising her to iron it

Ordering clothes online from retailers like Temu and Shein and others can often feel like a gamble. You might think you're getting a trendy item, only to end up with something completely different. While many people are lucky enough to receive exactly what they ordered, others can find themselves with a surprise, whether it's an item that looks nothing like the pictures or a package that is small, almost like receiving a toy instead of a full-sized product.

A young lady, TikTok user @lisa.m.beth, ordered pants from Temu, and what she received left her rolling in laughter, with online users joining in after viewing the clip on the video streaming platform.
