7 Reasons Why Online Shopping Is Better

It's much more easier for me to sit at home, find what I like and have it delivered to my front door.

We all love shopping for many reasons. Weather it be shopping for shoes or home appliances or even cars, we all have something we want to buy. Online shopping is easy. I personally think online shopping is better than in-store shopping.

Read my reasons below to find out why I and many others are online shopaholics:

1. More convenient and comfortable

It's much more easier for me to sit at home, find what I like and have it delivered to my front door. You don't have to worry about finding a parking space, or wasting gas. You can just sit home and do all your shopping from any store.

2. You have more options online than in store

It's true. Online shopping gives you a much better variety than in-store, there's a worldwide selection of a specific product than you might want. Also most times many things you find online might not be available in stores.

3. You get to avoid people

Don't you hate when you go out and see someone you know and wish you hadn't left your house? If you're more like me, you like to avoid the crowd and the salespeople when shopping. You can stay home and shop without having to wait in long lines and babies who won't stop crying.

4. Best deals

Online shopping gives you cheaper deals and even discount codes that you can apply. You can select "low to high" and save tons of money if you know what you're doing. Online stores even have their own "sales" or "clearance" sections to shop from.

5. It feels like Christmas when your package arrives

Who doesn't like the feeling of opening up a package. That's honestly the best part for me. It's so exciting when your clothes or whatever you buy arrives. It's more comfortable to try your clothes out at home and if you don't like what you got than it's not to hard to get a refund.

6. Reviews

Online shopping gives you many benefits for reviving the best products. You're able to compare different products and find the right prices. If you don't know if you should buy those jeans, read the reviews to see if other people liked it or not. When you buy things at the stores, you don't get reviews.

7. You can shop anytime of the day

This is another reason why online shopping is better. You can shop even when the store you need to shop at is closed and even if you don't have transportation. You can fit it into your schedule easily.

Sure shopping online has its negative aspects, but the positives overcome the negative. From my perspective, I seem to enjoy it more and if you prefer to shop in person that's fun to, after all, it's shopping!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
