A SAVVY shopper has revealed how she managed to bag the deal of the century with a little known hack.
Taking to her social media account, Stephanie told viewers that she had “no idea” this was a real thing, but “you can buy people’s luggage that’s lost with the airline online”.
In a bid to investigate further, she decided to try it out and got one from a company called Unclaimed Baggage, which is based in Alabama, US.
The website, according to Stephanie, says they’re trying to give items that have been lost and unclaimed a “second life”.
Removing the cardboard packaging with a pair of scissors, Stephanie then shared how impressed she was with it all.
She shared: “I was super impressed by their packaging and logo, it was super fun, it was well packed.

TikTok user @stephaniegrime said the company sells everything from Gucci to Louis Vuitton for discounted prices online.
Despite her excitement over the necklace she got, she admitted that a part of her does feel bad about it all.

“Should I make a series? Should I get more?” She then asked before the video came to an end.
In the caption, she added: “Have you ever lost your luggage with an airline? Did you find it?”
People were quick to comment as one person wrote: “It’s an amazing store! It’s a fun place to shop especially the clearance area. Very neat and great prices!
Another joked that people watching on the platform would be sat there “finding their missing packages”.
