KIRKLAND CUSTOMER BUYS NEW LAUNDRY PODS. SHE CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE
The video comes from TikToker Tessa Hyland (@tessahyland1).
In it, she explains that she had bought a new 152-pack drum of laundry detergent pods, favoring Costco’s in-house brand, and noticed something looked a little different with the new pods.
“Can you see that?” she exclaims, holding up the two packets side-by-side, with the newer one appearing to be slightly emptier than the old one.
At the end of the video, she reveals that the newer one appears to be, as she says with full questioning intonation, “A quarter empty?”
Some commenters shared in Hyland’s outrage, but one suggested that it might not be an intentional ruse to swindle consumers.“It’s very possible they concentrated it more heavily for the new pods. Less water = less weight = less shipping costs.”
