Today, I finally bought the expensive but beautifully stylish dress I've been eyeing for ages online. Ten minutes later, I went back to check the shoes the model was wearing so I could coordinate my outfit. The dress had been reduced to half price. FML

Online shopping strikes again

Today, after saving up for a beautiful new dress to wear to my partner's 30th birthday party, it finally arrived in the post. I tried the dress on and the stitching instantly ripped, leaving two big holes in it. Turns out I'm no longer a size 8. FML

Today, I bought a $3000 HD camera. It never shipped to my house, so I was concerned. I then realized I had given the seller the address for a house in California. I live in Maine. FML

Today, I mailed out a college application that is going to another country. I paid $250 for the application and $11 for shipping. I just realized that I forgot to sign the bottom of the application. FML

Today, I bought a new, expensive dress for a date. I left the tag on and hidden in hopes of returning it later. Someone saw it and ripped it off for me to "save me from embarrassment." FML

Today, I got a call that my custom order bridesmaid dress is at the apartment complex I just moved out of. They won’t give it to me because I’m no longer a resident, but they just thought I should know. The wedding’s tomorrow. FML

Dressed for success

Today, I realized the dress I bought yesterday still had the security tag on. I returned to the store to get it removed, only to realize I'd lost my receipt. The lady at the counter thought I stole it, called security, and had me escorted out, dress-less. FML

Today, it was my wedding day. Everything went great, except that no one showed up. Apparently, the address of the invitation was typed wrong. FML

Hope you can contact the company in time OP!

I'm sure that can be changed. If you bought it online they should send you a confirmation email. You could call the store and have them change it.

Yeah, this is fixable. Even if the store isn't willing to help, call the shipping company and explain the problem. Shippers have setup means of rerouting packages.

Should be some coincidence, if there's a street in Austria with the same name as yours. Maybe they'll contact you?

How would they contact OP, she put the wrong address on the order. Only way I could see that working if there was a phone number.

Hey Op, you can email customer service. They most probably would be able to rectify the mistake if they haven't shipped it out already! But be more careful next time though.

Make sure to email them before they attempt shipping, you don't want it to get lost.

Easy mistake, especially if it's a site where you pick your country from a list. Austria and Australia are close.

I could easily see someone making that mistake. Hope you get it fixed OP!

Today, I went to get the vaccination my college requires of all students. The nurse looked at my charts and told me there was good and bad news. The good news was that I didn't need the shot. The bad news was I needed four others. Now, both of my arms are swollen enough to make Popeye proud. FML
