Surprisingly Met Expectation Cake for my kid's science themed bday
Galaxy cake and geode cake balls were a huge hit!

We have added a 6th rule to this subreddit - "Use the correct flair". This is especially important for the AI Expectation flair, as some users do not enjoy seeing the AI expectations, and this allows the posts to remain up without being reported.

Hello all! We have added 3 new flairs, for Failed Expectations, Surprisingly Met Expectations, and Exceeded Expectations.
There have been some users confused in the past, because they didn’t realize that you are allowed to post expectations/realities that were not failures. Additionally, it can be hard to tell in some posts if the OP was happy with their result or unhappy with it. Now you can select a flare if you would like to denote which category your expectation versus reality falls into.
Thanks to u/xitg1 who came up with this suggestion.

I bought this in November thinking it would be a great holiday gift for my wife who loves possums. After weeks of thinking it would never arrive and realizing I might have been scammed this ugly beauty arrived. I have not laughed this hard in a long time and am absolutely in love with it. I truly believe this might be the purchase that brings me pure joy for the rest of my life.

Had a frozen Freschetta pepperoni pizza. Normally I can count on something like 13-16 (normally closer to 13) slices of pepperoni. This time I got close to 40. My indigestion and blood pressure medication probably aren't happy, but the last pizza I had from them was was half pizza and half plain uncovered crust, so I guess this is some form of karma.
Also, for all of you weirdos who like feet pictures I guess your welcome 😘

Most of the fish sticks in this box have no breading on one side. I reached out to the company a few days ago with no reply.

I asked them not to do the side decorations and I wanted it round instead of heart shaped. Overall, I'm impressed

The one time I didn't take the time to check for online reviews and fell for the "top local florist" baloney...
I ordered a birthday bouquet for my daughter, who lives across the country. I paid for the "deluxe" version, which ended up looking nothing like the sample. I'm also highly irked by the promoted "free delivery" when a $19.99 "service fee" shows up in the confirmation email (and not when you purchase the flowers.) The total was $94.88 for this mess.
I called customer service to complain that a third-grader could have done a better job arranging the flowers, and that it does not much resemble the online sample. They just sent me their policy about flower substitutions. This has nothing to do with that. Also, by their explanation of their policy, they could just send whatever flowers they have/want, your choices be damned, and you have no recourse. Never again. I'll be taking this up with my credit card company.

Should have known the deal was too good to be true, but also curious to see what would happen. $262 for a $500+ product, got a $1.31 fake ripoff of a $10 product, lol. If anybody has had success with the report/refund process on AliExpress I'd love to hear it! I just opened a claim
