    I received an octopus this week that I didn't order. Asked them to plant a tree, but that was back in January.
    That's just a thank you for asking them to plant a tree.

    I guess you never asked them to plant another tree as a thank you for asking them to plant a tree instead of an octopus.

    Maybe you're meant to bury it in the ground, and eventually a tree will grow.

    Nooooooooooooo 😥🐙
  • I want one of them real ones in a tank that can predict the horse racing and football matches.
    I'm not cruel so it will obviously be told what the consequences of getting the results wrong will be. :D:D:D

    It's good to read that people are actually receiving them, Eventually! as you said it will probably arrive when I'm not expecting it and be wondering what the hell is in the package 🤣

    Update: Octopus arrived this morning, it's great, my son will be over the moon! 
  • Fortunately it looks happy, surprised, and is very very cute.

    But if that smile turns upside down don't be tempted to give it it's freedom by chucking it in the sea. Not green!

    (Unless you can find it a nice colorful Neon Reef.)
