20+ People Who Made an Ordinary Purchase but Ended Up Winning a Far Greater Prize
Nowadays, online shopping has become one of the most common habits among people since purchasing goods and services from the comfort of our own homes means saving time, travel, and money. It’s no exaggeration to say that, on occasion, customers purchase products that are not exactly the same as the ones they ordered. However, there are also cases in which people receive something else — something even better — in addition to their order.
At Bright Side, we love to find out what kinds of surprises could come with a simple online order, so here’s a rather curious compilation we think you’ll enjoy and will have you wondering if you’ll also get something nice next time you order a product online.
1. “Ordered something online and it came with a 55-year-old postage stamp.”
2. “The seller packed my Aliexpress order with heart-shaped bubble wrap.”
3. “My change today was in order by serial number.”
4. “I ordered a Jeff Goldblum and Harambe shower curtain but received an oversized tapestry instead.”
5. “I ordered new waterproof hiking shoes online and they shipped them with trail snacks packed in the shoebox!”

14. “Just had ’McSocks’ in my McDonalds order!”
15. “The extra cup of salsa that came with my takeout order”
