Monster Slipper of the Day: Tom Boddingham is the proud owner of a brand new monster’s paw-shaped bed. One problem, though: He ordered a slipper
I am 28 years old.
I have $50,000 in debt.
I have never made more than $18,000 a year. (And that was in 2006.)
Still, I am one of the richest men...
I am a 55-year-old mother with a son in college on loans. Until he was born I had a “career in music” Since that industry changed, I’ve still made 4...
I knew there was a reason I joined the major I did..and I was always worried that I’d never be able to be apart of something...
Monster Slipper of the Day: Tom Boddingham is the proud owner of a brand new monster’s paw-shaped bed. One problem, though: He ordered a slipper.
Boddingham says the Chinese company that manufactures the slipper missed the decimal point in his custom order: He wanted a size 14.5 left, but got a size 1,450 instead.
“It was sent directly from Hong Kong and measures 210 x 130 x 65cms – the same length as a grizzly bear or a family car,” the 27-year-old for Ilford, East London, is quoted as saying. “I reckon I must be the owner of the biggest slipper in the world.”
The Hong Kong-based company has since apologized to Boddingham, and promised to send him a replacement slipper. Asked why the request for a XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL monster’s paw didn’t raise any flags, a spokesman said the employees thought it was meant as a prop for a window display.
