There are many reasons you may find that shopping online is better than going to the mall. You may enjoy shopping in your pajamas, or may like not searching for a parking place at the mall, or even prefer shopping at night when most stores are closed. You can leave one store and go to another one without ever leaving your chair. If you buy a bookcase that needs to be put together, you can order it online and have it sent by home direct shipping. The online store may have people:
• Deliver the item to your home.
• Take it to the room where it belongs.
• Unpack it.
• Put it together.
• Take the trash with them when they leave.
They can do this all while you sit back down in your chair and do some more shopping.
Online Shopping Simplifies Buying and Sending Presents:
Before the advent of online shopping, when it came time to buy gifts for birthdays, baby showers, wedding showers and other special occasions you would have to go from store to store to find the right item. You would go home, box up your gift and wrap it. Next, you would go the post office or shipping company, stand in line, and ship your item. You could only hope it got to its destination in time.
Now, from that very same chair where you sat and ordered your bookcase, you can order all those presents. Online stores will deliver your present or your gift card to its destination. All you have to do is click your mouse at the appropriate prompts. Even if you almost forgot about the need for a gift, when you suddenly remember, online gift sending can be done within minutes. Even on short notice, your gift can be delivered on time.
Online Shopping Saves Money:
Not only do you save money on gasoline by not driving to the store, you save on parking fees. It is also easier to “shop around” and order from the site that has the best price. Many online companies provide discount coupons that are easy to use. Most importantly you save time.
There are No Crowds, Fewer Germs and No Standing in Line:
Shopping malls can be crowded, especially at holiday times. Large crowds of shoppers can be overwhelming. With online shopping you never have to stand in line when you shop online. All you do is click your mouse. And whatever you buy will arrive promptly when sent by home direct shipping.
I feel one of the main advantages of online shopping is that you can buy stuff at your own convinient time and you don’t have to plan your day for going to malls etc.
