I’ve never thought about shipping my luggage directly to a hotel before…

And maybe I shouldn’t even consider it after watching this viral TikTok video.

A woman named Megs showed TikTok viewers what happened when she tried to send her bags to a hotel and things didn’t go as planned.

In the video, Megs asked a worker about two packages that she had mailed to the hotel.

The text overlay on the video reads, “When you think you’re being smart by shipping your clothes to a hotel so you don’t have to carry a giant suitcase.”

But the worker had some bad news…

They told Megs that they had to send the packages back because she wasn’t listed as a hotel guest.

Megs said she’d previously arranged the packages to be delivered to the hotel, and the worker told her, “I guess they would have been returned to the center.”

Doh!

In a follow-up video, a UPS worker told Megs that her packages would be delivered on a specific date, but they weren’t sure of the location of her packages at that moment…

Hmmmm…
