Those who have been around awhile remember the 3 blind boxes which was pretty straightforward.

Now they have a newer promo of 6 blind boxes. I played it today.

first box- you get a 10 cent credit

open more boxes- must purchase items for the prices listed. They are inexpensive item offerings. After 1/2 hour, it goes up to 5.99.

4th box- you pick an item for .01- note the items to select from are under $5-$8.

At this point, you can stop playing and get the items in your cart. (But of course, you will need to add more items to reach that minimum spend.)

Next, they will offer you a box to purchase an item that is most likely in your cart for a reduced price. You can purchase or pass.

The next box you have to make a purchase with a minimum $8 spend and they will give you a $3 coupon. They make it look like you will get the $10 Temu credit, but you will not.

After that, they want you to make additional purchases with lower minimum spends to work your way towards the $10 credit (“Oh, you are 3 cents away!”)

At this point, I stopped playing because they are notorious for the “you are soooooo close” rabbit hole promos.

I responded to someone about buying clothing but it was removed because I mentioned something the bot didn’t like. So, I’ll post it here.

I recently was asked if I have a personal stylist. I laughed to myself because my wardrobe from head to toe is Temu and Sh**n.
Like someone said, it’s a hit or miss. What I like to do best is get outfit ideas from more expensive brands and screen shot them.
Then I use the camera on the browser to see what items they have that are similar.
After that, I read the reviews. (Sh** n has a lot more reviews because they give points for them.)
I also check the measurements and fabric content on the listing.

Sometimes I will pay the $2.99 shipping for local warehouse items because they have more cotton and linen clothing.
The majority of the time, I order true to size. The Asian market has adjusted to American sizes and will list it as an Asian size if it runs smaller.
It takes awhile to get the hang of it, but I have built a really nice wardrobe.
Lastly, be prepared to make returns. They make returning very easy and I’ve never had any problems.

I just spent my $60 coupon and didn’t get it back. Booooo! I’m curious if anyone else got it back after using the $60 coupon?
