Phil and Holly share viewers' hilarious online shopping fails - including wool instead of jumper and tiny drum kit

One man's tweet has gone viral after he purchased an 'affordable' jumper online, which ended up in him actually receiving bags of wool.

Dan Sheehan, from LA, said he was aiming to look like Chris Evans in Knives Out when he found a jumper on a Norwegian website that looked similar to the one Evans wore in the film.

However, once his order arrived, Dan quickly realised that he had actually just purchased balls of wool and that if he wanted the jumper, he would need to knit it himself.

But it seems Dan isn't the only person to have experienced an online shopping mishap.

Discussing Dan's unfortunate mistake, Phil and Holly asked This Morning viewers to send in images of their own online shopping disasters during today's show - and they didn't disappoint.

One viewer revealed that her mother thought she was onto a winner with a bargain kettle and toaster - which you can watch above - only to receive children's toys of the kitchen appliances. 

Unable to contain her laughter, Holly quipped: "It happens to us all."

The duo then revealed how Sandra, who "needed to post a few things", went online to buy some bubble wrap.

But to her dismay, she was delivered a jumbo roll of the stuff - almost as tall as her kitchen ceiling - as she forgot to check the size.

Holly and Phil shortly after burst into hysterics as they then presented one grandmother's comedic shopping fail.

"My nan thought that she had bought a new drum kit for my little cousin," Phil added, grinning, before showing a picture of a tiny drum kit on a shelf.

"Depends how little your cousin is." Holly hilariously interjected.

Other fails the pair chuckled over included a budget lunch box only big enough to fit one bourbon biscuit, and tiny rolling pins that one viewer thought her children could use while playing with their play-doh.

"They're all great, love that," Phil finished by saying.
