SourceHello friends, welcome to a new week with new opportunities and I wish you the best of it. Here is the edition 1 of week 44 prompts of @hivelearners.
Shopping is something we do daily and individuals have a method on how they purchase either online or physical shopping. I do the both however most times I prefer internet purchasing than the actual ones.
Online shopping refers to purchasing products and services through the internet.
Convenience: You do not need to leave the comfort of your home or workplace to buy anything. It may be delivered to you in the period of minutes, days or months depending on what you ordered.
Technology has made it easy for buyers and sellers to engage and even food can be provided at your doorstep. It is best when the merchandise is heavy and big for you to move.
Shopping around the World:
With internet shopping you may buy throughout the globe in the convenience of your house. This might be beneficial if you are seeking for things that are hard to obtain or if you want to buy an item that is not accessible in your country. Sites like Amazon may assist you to do so.
Pricing: Sometimes Online retailers give discounts and sale promo for their consumers but in physical shopping particularly in supermarkets you do not have the flexibility to price items since their price label is already there.
Selection: Online Retailers offer a wider selection of things than physical stores because there is no space constraint to where the goods are stored. At online shopping it is possible to compare costs between various shops in their websites and determine the one which is preferable to use to buy your goods.
Easy Return:Online sellers offer extensive return policies. They offer at least 7 days for you to return the things if you are not happy with it and receive a complete refund.
Product Feedback: Many online retailers enable consumers to write reviews on how the item is and how it was delivered to them. This might be beneficial to you in making judgments while purchasing those specific items.
Payment alternatives: Online shops provide several payment methods which includes: credit card, paypal and other online payment services. Other businesses even enable you to pay with crypto currency (although still rare) while some provide the option to pay with cash at delivery.
Customer service: Online retailers usually have customer staff ready to answer inquiries and fix any problem you have with your items and purchase.
Track your order: Many online shops give information about your purchase and enable you to monitor the status of your delivery and when to expect them. You also see information about where to pick your things or give your house information, if it is home delivery.
Use of Gift Cards: Some Online shops give Gift cards that may be used to buy things from their website. This is also a good approach to gift someone to someone who likes shopping online.

No doubt shopping online is quite convenient cause you get to shop from the comfort of your home and also you have variety of shopping site to choose from if one price of the item you are purchasing is more favourable. But I still prefer to shop physically.

You have listed your reasons for choosing online shopping and I believe we all have different preferences when it comes to things like this. Thanks for sharing from your own view.

Funny enough i still do physical shopping tho but i just prefer the online way
Perhaps I will try the online shopping someday and I hope my money isn't wasted 😁
Lol it won't but don't buy from a Vendor you know nothing about
Taaaaaah 🤕 lolz 😂🤣🤣 na lie, there is no easy returns in online shopping, you should see the refund form you will fill lol 🤣🤣🤣 and it takes days before you get response lolz 😂🤣..
I agree with others in terms of time and convenience but shopping is incomplete without memories or shopping experience lolz 😂🤣...
Thank you for the write up dear...
You will have to quarrel some physical retailer to get your refund especially bif you didn't refund it that day
😊
well, you have listed enticing points why you refer vobline shopping which I quite agree with some of them, but you see, buying bad products is common when you buy online and returning them is another journey entirely, we end up being frustrated especially here in Nigeria.
😂😂😂 truth be told, in Nigeria it can be it is more used in other countries but I think online retailers are trying to be better
While Paypal promotes disinformation and violates free speech rights of people. Use Bitcoin. Please add a fixed address or a BTC Pay link (which accepts lightning).
Ok noted
