After Twitter user AskAubry's tampon order was unable to be filled, the retail giant suggested a container of white mushrooms instead.

When a woman learned that her online Walmart order of Tampax Pearl tampons was unavailable, she was more disappointed over the retailer's replacement suggestion.

Walmart apparently thought a suitable item in place of tampons would be a container of 16 ounce whole white mushrooms.


When a product is no longer available, most grocery stores typically suggest alternative options they think customers will settle for, and they can either accept the suggestion or reject it and receive a full refund.

Twitter user @ask_aubry shared a screenshot of her receipt showing what Walmart considered was the next best thing to the feminine hygiene product.

She politely declined, writing:

"Hi Walmart, I don't think mushrooms will work."

Unsurprisingly, the internet was in stitches.

Some who related to her experience shared similar shopping inconveniences.






Some speculated Walmart may have been onto something here.




Thanks, but no thanks, Walmart.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
