I know! I know! Temu is bad news and they use bad stuff. But, I see the cutest stuff in their ads that show up continually on my Mylot pages. Grr! I wish they would go away. They have the neatest gadgets and the prettiest clothes. I don't spend a lot of money shopping, can't afford to, but this month is my grandson's and my daughter's birthdays and I am always looking for cute stuff to get them. Oh woe is me.

A local thrift store is your safest bet.

No way can I ever support such a company. My kids have boycotted it as well.

That is how I feel. I wish they didn't have such cute stuff.

@celticeagle I've read too much about them, shady practices, child and forced labor products, and clothing with a high lead content, as well as other chemicals. The clothing might be cute, but if it's toxic, is it a bargain? There is a reason why all that stuff is so cheap...I'm completely convinced of that.

@MarieCoyle ........I totally agree with you. That is why it is pushing my buttons. They are not good business and the clothes aren't made well. Grr!

I don't like that they have so many cool items. The items I bought that one time were good and I have no problem with them.

I have bought from them and been happy with the stuff. But if you need presents this month it might be late if you order from them. Shipping can take some time. I have even won the fish game there and got the stuff I picked for that. Close to winning the farm game now.

The one time I did order from them it did take a long time to get it. The items I got were alright and have had no problems. Just won't be buying from them again.

I don't patronize Temu. I hope you find something nice for your grandson and daughter. Have a good weekend.

I don't either. I bought from them once and had no problems but won't again.

Do what is best for you and buy what you think will last.
