Temu has been blowing up lately. Everywhere you look, people are talking about the crazy low prices, endless deals, and free shipping that make it feel like a dream for anyone who loves saving money. You can find almost anything there, from daily essentials to fun little extras, and that’s exactly why so many people jumped on board so quickly.
