“Don’t judge a book by its cover,” they say. Is that applicable in this age, though? Nah! Even so, we end up buying or ordering stuff by the looks of it, only to be surprised with what we actually receive. Most advertising images and videos are merely pipe dreams, and we just keep falling into the trap despite the many red flags!
Take a look at these “pretend” items that people compare to their covers. A flat ball pit, an April fool’s Mac and Cheese, only yellow skittles, chocolate chip cookies without any chocolate chips- which one seals the deal for you from these amusing false promises?
1. “My brother bought a “studio quality” White Walker mask online. I’m dead lol”
2. “What I ordered vs what she received!”
3. “Did they put it in a compressor? It’s also rock hard.”
4. “Ordering plants online is always risky but this just made me sad.”
5. “My double filled croissant!”
6. “What I expected vs. What I got?”
7. “I ordered the “4-cheese Mac & Cheese with Honey Pepper Chicken Tenders” online from Applebee’s last night for pick up. It wasn’t even April fools day!”
8. “I was told my Oreo ice cream belonged here!”
9. Something’s surely missing here!
10. “Inside vs outside”
11. “Top slice of bacon vs the rest in the package.”
12. “I got a fun size pack of Skittles with only yellow ones.”
