Some things just make me SMH because …(Temptations)

homedecor1 — Thu, 25 Nov 2021 04:43:33 GMT

Just think I'm delerious because I can't stop laughing at this.

Today after weeks of waiting I received my cute tinee tiny salt & peppers character set. I'm sure these are a defect or certainly for decorative uses. The description states the shakers are 2.5" no way maybe 1 1/4".

- I look at them they are size of my pinky finger and just keep "laughing" how tinee tiny they are🤦‍♀️

And to think on TV they looked like perfect size...the tray is wider than the salt & pepper shakers are tall. I really should send back but to waste $9.00 in fees is ridiculous ...when it was $15.00 item.

I sent as a little gift to a friend who collects gingerbread items..boy, she will get a laugh too I'm sure!

The sad quality of merchandise today...

@homedecor1 A shame but at least you found a use for them.

Maybe they were including the little holder in the height? 🤷‍♀️

If they really are not as advertised you can send them back as defective, maybe even call customer service.

These would right up DD's alley, she collects unusual salt & pepper shakers, LOL!

These would fit right in!

This reminds me of people posting on social media, what they ordered and how it looked online vs. what they actually received.

At least you had a good laugh from these, so you got something for your money!

@homedecor1 Maybe appropriate for a doll house. LOL. To paraphrase the saying on a car's side mirror.....objects may be smaller than they appear.

@KingstonsMom

I 🤣🤣🤣 your comments are perfect but maybe since I'm full of crazy meds these seems "funny" then again, it's probably because my everyday s & p shakers are large ..

Well, funniest moments in this crazy world i'll take ...

happy 🦃 everyone🙂🙂

I agree with the previous comment that, if they're not the size as shown in the description, I'd send them back as defective and state why.

I'd also put a printout of the description in. No need for you to lose the return S&H (or the original, for that matter).

I measured mine. They’re 2.5” like the description says.

@homedecor1 @These appear to be individual shakers. Meaning there are multiple on the table so there isn't as much passing across to table. I used to have Salt Cellars at each setting but then moved into these smaller shakers. I put them between 2 guests to share. These are really cute ones!

@HonestLife

Well my cousin loved them --she explained they aren't meant to be everyday size. I just use regular old 4" s/p shakers.

So you are right they are just for one time use🙂
