Kim Kardashian is being mercilessly mocked for what followers are calling an extremely disappointing Advent calendar from her SKIMS brand that they say is not worth the $148 price tag.

The controversy began when one purchaser shared a video on TikTok of herself opening the trinkets. The popular gift item is already sold out with a wait list.
The video has racked up more than 65 million views as of Monday. The social media user said the calendar was “very expensive” and reported being more and more “pissed off” as she unwrapped low-cost items like a SKIMS-branded keychain, silk hair ties, hair pins, a SKIMS-branded foam squishy, and Christmas ornaments. There was also what appeared to be a “bra strap made into a hairtie.”
“Kimberly, you’re genuinely about to piss me off,” the TikTok user said in the clip. “This is way too expensive.”
Commenters agreed with her review, with one person saying it “should be lawsuit-worthy, and I’m not joking.”
“Box full of pranks,” another agreed.
“So basically everything that falls between my car seats,” echoed a third.
“Did she say SKIMS, or scams,” another person questioned.
A rep for SKIMS told Page Six they were working to fix the situation.
“We’re aware of the feedback some customers have shared about the SKIMS Advent Calendar, and we’ve listened carefully,” the statement said.
“We understand that for some, the calendar didn’t meet expectations and we have personally contacted every customer who purchased the calendar and offered them a choice of a full refund or a SKIMS credit to put towards other products.”
SKIMS is a hugely successful brand for Kardashian, but this isn’t the company’s first miss. Last year they launched the “Ultimate Bush” underwear collection, which included thongs with fake hair attached to them. Styles were offered in 12 different color and style variations, such as “Clay Ginger Straight.”
Social media users heavily ridiculed the product, with many joking that they were “calling 911” and kept checking the date to make sure it wasn’t an April Fool’s prank.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
