I know you’re humble & didn’t really want to set up a patronage, but people are very generous & still send you gifts. Perhaps you should look at setting up an Amazon wish list. They do it in the states, should be able to set up here. That way you can list items that you would like & use, but perhaps can’t justify purchasing. People can buy something for you & have it sent straight to you. Just a thought!

[@OurSmallFootprint]

I think part of it is that I can buy myself all the small stuff, and I do, you guys help me to do that! It's the big stuff I struggle with because I just can't put the money away for it, or I divert the funds elsewhere and I don't want you guys buying big stuff! I appreciate each and every view you guys give and how it adds to my income to be able to redo my gardens and all that kind of thing!

[@traceyTibbles07]

I (we), still think you should do it. Item values of $20-$40 would probably be appropriate Tx

Would it be possible to do a follow-up value in 3 months to see if the products have longevity.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

I can do that, a lot of this stuff I'll use in my daily life, so you'll see the spatulas and all that kind of thing then, but I can definitely do a follow up on some of the more obscure items, I'm curious how the tea pot warmers are going to go! and I haven't checked the solar garden lights yet.

[@mylife-321-0]

Hey Nyssa, this haul was so much fun to watch! I told my husband I bought some stuff on Temu My husband has OCD really bad and hates clutter and junk. When my order came in he watched closely as I opened the bag. He really liked that everything was in its own bags. He was like oh now I like that, and that’s pretty cool. He ask how much some of the items were and said ok you did well. Then a big bag of Temu shows up that he ordered. Of course it was all outside stuff he liked. He purchased a NIIMBOT label maker that prints labels or whatever you need. Amazing! That was well worth what we spent. He grows roses like 300 or so and he used it for name plates. Love it! TFS!!!❤

[@OurSmallFootprint]

Oooh, neat, I'll have to check out the label printers! hehe, I tried to buy stuff that was actually purposeful, it would be easy to buy stuff for the sake of it! :D

If you need to buy kitchen scissors again, I would definitely recommend Chicago Cutlery. I've had mine for 20+ years and it's still going strong. The handles separate for easy cleaning and the back of them have a bottle opener and a flat screwdriver. They are strong enough to cut through smaller bones like chicken, not the leg bones but pretty much everything else.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

Oooh, thank you! I will check them out! I had a pair that did the split in half thing and they broke recently, they were quite old, hence grabbing these ones, but they definitely won't be bone cutting, just general kitchen use.

Great haul. Having 4 kids myself I had a giggle at the icy pole sticks and then you said exactly what I was thinking 😂😂

[@OurSmallFootprint]

hehe, yeah, I haven't tested if normal sticks fit yet, but even the lids being loose instead of one piece isn't ideal for my house! But they had a wide range of them, so might be worth checking out what else they have.

From what I've seen with the sponsored youtubers in America, the items are packaged better than the non-sponsored hauls that they receive.

One of those packages was paid for and ordered and one was the sponsored package, they seemed very similar to me, I didn't notice too much deviation in the style of packaging, but its always possible :)

[@Ladythyme]

I’ve order a couple of times twice the packaging was awful…it was packed in plastic bags and taped all up…and was all squished up when I got it…and many of the items were squished in their packaging..one or two items damaged…the last time the contents were in a box and was packaged much better …maybe it depends on their distribution center.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

@@Ladythyme I’d imagine it depends on the staff member too, and the handling by the company delivering as well etc! I was pretty happy with the packaging, that one spoon was a very fragile item, and the peeler looked like it was damaged in manufacture not transport. Everything else seemed ok. For the cost of the items and the free shipping, it was a tolerable trade off.

How long did it take you to receive your order after you placed it?

[@OurSmallFootprint]

The paid order (with the teapot warmers etc) I placed on the 23rd of May, I got tracking on the 24th, and it was avail at the post office on the 30th. :)

Temu should be very pleased with your presentation; well done, Nyssa.

Thank you Olivia :)

Hi Nyssa, how long did the order take to get to you? as i was pretty iffy after people saying they never recieved their orders from Temu, also this is the same kind of shopping place as shein. ive tried Shein before and love their stuff.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

It's very similar to Shein I reckon, though I don't think I've ever ordered. I put the paid order (the one with the teapot warmers etc, which was completely separate to the free order.) in on the 24th, got a shipping notice on the 25th and then received at the post office on the 30th. I've only done this one order so far though, I'm going to go looking for other stuff as well I think because there's quite a few things I think I'd like to see if they have!

@@OurSmallFootprint good to know thanks, i might put a order in then and see how i go

[@rosemariemichel7050]

I like Temu.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

I'll definitely be checking them out when I'm hunting for stuff again! As much as I love to buy local etc, sometimes cost outweighs unfortunately!

I get the allure, and i get that this was an out of the blue offer, and sweet that you were able to do a scratch and sniff of their prodcts/shipping, etc. Me personally, i felt it was very dollar shop quality and i have a thing about the bazillion tonnes of packaging... 🤷‍♀️ i'm also a bit wary of massed produced china stuff... toxins and chemicals... 🤔 again, awesome that you were offered a test run on some of their stuff with not too much soul-selling.. 😉😂 It's a no for me. 🥴

[@OurSmallFootprint]

It is definitely a ‘cheapie store’ kinda vibe :). But some of the items will be super useful for me and I was glad to give them a go :D. Unfortunately, dollar store esque items and pricing is my budget a lot of the time lol, as much as I’d love to support local and fair trade etc, if I did so, I wouldn’t have much heh :)

@@OurSmallFootprint We have these two stores that are similar to a dollar shop (or in our case Euro) I suppose and a lot of people always think that everything they sell is made in China, when in reality, it's not. Around 75% of their things are made in some European country. I even found sth from New Zealand the other day. Some things are obviously not the best quality but most are great and have lasted me for years.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

@@EmmaHope88 a lot of the stuff is the same as the branded stuff without the branding too! :)

I just cant decide about temu. I cant find any good, reliable sources about their ethicability and sustainability of the products. already just seeing all the plastic on plastic on plastic im turned off temu, ill never understand why every little product has to be in its own bag but its something every company seems to do (unless youre buying from like B Corp certified companies, eco companies etc.) so it seems unavoidable shopping online. im curious about the actual quality of the products too, of course everything looks shiny and new when you first get it but id love to know how those things actually hold up after being used every day.

[@OurSmallFootprint]

I dislike that everything is in its own plastic (though I understand it would be for picking orders purposes i reckon) as well, but I do like that it all comes in one shipment, like when I order from Amazon the amount of packages I get from one order even if I say to hold till its all ready! I will say, huge huge vote for the teapot warmers, they are absolutely awesome, my tea stays piping hot for hours over a tiny little tealight candle! The spatulas have been holding up really well so far as well! The fairy lights have been up and on since we got them and are working really well too, but I'll update on other stuff as I use them :D

[@kbhomestead]

I am a youtube creator and would love to work with Temu....I didn't see an email address to contact you through...

[@OurSmallFootprint]

it should be on my 'about' :). oursmallfootprint gmail com :)

[@bethenyauker4727]

I think you got some great stuff!! I haven't ordered from them yet but I've been seeing promotional hauls since around Christmas. I loved that little pot with the teaspoon for like salt or such!! Absolutely adorable!
