Caroline revealed her order came in an old McCain frozen oven chips packet – with chips and crumbs still inside.
“When I collected it, I laughed,” the social media manager, told What’s The Jam.
“I like to think that I’m a pretty easy-going person, and like to see the humour in situations – so collecting a chip bag with my Vinted order made me chuckle.
“But I was concerned as to how the item was going to be inside.”
Opening up the parcel on camera, Caroline shows her address label was stuck to the back of the chips packet, while it otherwise looks like a normal bag of frozen fries.
