This stupid gift wrap

What is even the point of this crap? It looks silver but is completely clear and doesn’t say that anywhere on the packaging.

Yeah I have that’s a good point. The silver is what annoyed me. I thought the whole roll was a reflective silver.

You're not alone my friend! I think this is the 4th post I've seen around reddit about this in recent months. It is so misleading and evil! The only reason why I ever knew about it was because I worked at a store that sold these and a customer came charging into my customer service area one day. I, of course, immediately gave a full refund and I printed a sign that I stuck to the shelf saying "This is clear NOT SILVER!!!" to warn people 🤣
