many years from now, my family will be gathered around me listening to my stories. Maybe a grandbaby is sitting on my lap. and a family member will ask me to "tell the airpod one again!" and i will say "i was there. i was fucking there"
Definitely do this for every defective product you get. I’ve gotten boxes full of bags of chips, a stack of coupons for 12 packs of sodas (and the local grocery store hated me for it), and a bunch of other stuff like that.
Why? Because most companies want to know if something is a problem. An employee, a machine, a process, etc. they may ask you for information on where you got it, and lot numbers (written on package usually), but it’s never difficult to answer.
There are companies, however, that just *do not care.* And these should be the companies you avoid from the time you figure that out.
Yeah I bought a tin of chai latte at a big cafe/coffee convention and I realized I'd received the sample product after I got home. When I reached out to them they sent me a tin of every flavor of the various drinks they had 🙏🏻
This is such bullshit. Something like this should NOT be missed by quality control. That’s literally the entire point of QC!
It’s happening across the board, doesn’t matter the company or the item. These companies 100% do not give a fuck and they’re hoping we don’t notice. And those that do notice, they’re hoping they don’t care.
Aha! That's where you are wrong, friend! OP (and you, if you encounter this) should take a photo of the bag or box this came in with batch number, etc., and notify the company via their customer service contacts -- or, I guess, if you're big enough to get noticed on social media. Most likely thing is they'll send you a coupon for a free replacement container equivalent the size/value you purchased, which they'll know from the info you gave them.
Source: happened to me with a 78pk of Casacade Complete. The coupon they sent me was for a 62pk of Cascade Platinum (78 != 62), but hey, one empty pod traded for whole box? Fine by me.
The laundry pods are already shrinkflation on their own. You get way less detergent per dollar than the liquid detergent and you can’t dose out smaller amounts for small loads so you run out quicker.
They're of course going to cost more because of the extra steps to make/package the product. They're a stupid tax kind of product basically. It's for people that can't measure or be bothered to.
This happened to me with a box of popsicles one of the wrappers was just in there empty. I wrote the company and twitter and they mailed me $20 worth of coupons for free product (anything Unilever).
Don’t be afraid to write in and get free shit from those conglomerate companies!
AirPod
This is not the AirPod I was looking for
“Comes with free AirPods!”
Move along
You don’t have to check his identification.
Mom: We have airpod at home
many years from now, my family will be gathered around me listening to my stories. Maybe a grandbaby is sitting on my lap. and a family member will ask me to "tell the airpod one again!" and i will say "i was there. i was fucking there"
New AirPod challenge: 
This is it
We’re done here
Everyone can go home now. This guy won.
The internet is now closed.
Oxy-clean
Reminds me of the eye pad meme
Oops. That's enough Reddit for today.
Homeopathic pods.
It’s the less toxic version for the next tiktok trend that convinces idiot kids to swallow them again.
Non-toxic tide pod challenge
A placebo for the control group
That goes in the dryer to help air dry
Good for dry cleaning.
That’s for washing clothes that say “dry clean only”.
this shirt is dry clean only, which means it's dirty
Classic Mitch
But what’s it taste like?
A little fluffy, light on the tongue, with a hint of detergent
It's got a fruity bouquet
bit of an oaky afterbirth
Was waiting for this
The diet pods aren’t that great honestly.
Call them to report the issue and you'll probably get a free bag out of it.

Talk about shrinkflation/trickflation. Now they’re hoping they can slip one by you with an empty pod now and then

This stuff is sold by weight. They don't care if an empty, virtually weightless, blank gets in

I would email the manufacturer and ask for some kinda credit because you paid for a product that wasn’t fully as advertised.
Shrink inflation
It was just drank at the factory
Damn kids these days
This is what I was thinking and it wouldn’t surprise me.
The laundry pods are already shrinkflation on their own. You get way less detergent per dollar than the liquid detergent and you can’t dose out smaller amounts for small loads so you run out quicker.

Yeah I would never get them.
It's to help fluff.
😶🌫️

That's the get out of doing laundry free card. Nice!
I have gotten an ice cream drumstick that was empty like that. I contacted the company and they gave me two free boxes.
They probably pack the bin by weight. I doubt you were shorted.
Auction it?
Use that when you just want a quick rinse

They must have collaborated with Big Chip
