Free movie! Do not delay, buy for $0 now! Then find the biggest screen you can and watch. This is the movie from my youth (my dad took me to the Leicester Square Odeon when it came out). No-one understands the ending; but that’s irrelevant … www.polygon.com/deals/241135...

Ok. So I watched this video about Temu and drop-shipping and it turns out it covers much more. It gets a tad slow in the middle; but picks up and delivers again pretty quickly. It explains so much about Amazon etc. Botton line: shopping online is hard (and Etsy fraud is real)! youtu.be/Xb0k6v9GLQA
