When we were on COVID lockdown, I was ordering almost all our groceries online. I was pretty good about looking at the sizes of things when it was something I was used to finding in different sizes, but I had some big screwups with things that I was used to seeing always the same size. Like margarine usually comes in a 15 ounce tub, and I bought a 5 pound tub that looked exactly the same in the picture. Similarly I bought a bottle of champagne that looked normal but turned out to be a single serving.
I’m glad I didn’t have to buy any appliances - that would be a much worse mistake.
