    I agree with everything you said except the rotary cutter blades. I find them fabulous and as good as the ones that came with my quality rotary cutter.

      If you remember the name of the seller you got them from I would love to try them!
      I did see that different sellers seem to have different styles. The ones I bought have a differnt shaped hole for the bolt bit compared to others I’ve seen on there.
      Thanks for the view and comment!

    Great video 😊
    I live in Hawaii which doesn't have any dollar stores. I find Temu to be the closest thing we can get to a dollar store.

      Thanks! It’s got some good stuff, can be a bit hit and miss but it’s fun to buy from.
      Ahhh Hawaii, one day!

    China is notably less expensive then many other countries that is why they are getting paid less, we consider it forced labor but if you live in china it isn't, if we stop purchasing from these cinese companies they will be loosing their jobs, anything we buy in our country is mostly made in china anyway. I purchased things from Amazon that were made in china same exact things that cost me 4 times as much. The teflon foot for example on amazon Italy is 8,00 euro for one, I got 2 of them from Temu for 1,95 euro they work just fine. There is a huge difference in prices, if something is not what I expected Temu refunds me putting the credit on my account instantly and tells me to keep the item. I currently have 25,00 euro credit to spend plus I kept the items, somehow I will end up using them, which means I have 25,00 euro worth of items I got for free.

      I agree, it’s all made in the same factories.
      It’s the big companies that are making the money, not paying fair wage or their share of taxes.

    They can sell it for incredibly cheap because of the forced labor of the Uyghur people and poverty wages for workers.

      Totally agree with you!
      Unfortunately a lot of products are made in those areas, including electronics which we use in our homes and our devices.
      Hopefully raising awareness will pressure big companies to pay better wages.

      we consider it forced labor but life is a lot cheaper in China then it is in the western countries, not buying from China means that they will end up loosing their jobs. Anything we buy most of the time is made in china anyway.
