15 online purchases that hilariously deviated from what the buyers were expecting
Almost everybody with an internet connection has done some online shopping at some point, even if it was only for pizza.
For most people, it’s a straightforward transaction and people are more or less happy, but for the unlucky few, things can go badly wrong – and I don’t mean ‘red sock in a white wash’ wrong, I mean ‘following bad satnav instructions and getting stuck in a field’ wrong.
These 15 people know how it feels to have the high of making the order, followed by the low of seeing the product.
1. When you order aliens but get Brexit.
2. When the carry-on bag might not be the right size
3. When they didn’t send what they said they’d sent
4. When the irony of getting a Gay Pride flag instead of a Russian one is lost on nobody
5. When the product is faulty, but the cat doesn’t care
6. Less Little Mermaid and more Little piggy went to market
7. When nobody’s sure why you ordered what you ordered in the first place
8. When 50% off didn’t mean what you thought it did
