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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
