Online shopping, the Internet’s greatest gift to busy individuals everywhere. Not only limited to just food and clothes, if it is present in the offline world, you’re certain to find it sold online as well. If you’re a diehard online buyer (or busy person), you would have experienced these symptoms.
The lack of free shipping irks you
There’s a cost for shipping after spending $100 worth of items?? Nope, nope, nope. Finding another store online, you monster.
You know your exact office address – postal code and all
Best day is the delivery day! Someone’s gotta be around to pick up those packages, so why not send them to the office instead and show your haul off to your colleagues?
The language barrier is never a hurdle
Struggled with English in class? Is everything in Hindi? No problem! All you need to know is how much an item costs and roughly what details to fill into each field. Then, just click the largest button on the site to check out.
Website states your email is already registered with them
This is the point where you retrieve your password with them with IMMENSE shame.
Your email looks like this
EDM to you has no relevance in the musical sense. However, email direct marketing is certainly up your alley.
You remember your credit card by heart
And CVV code and expiry date as well. It’s amazing how you can remember a 16-digit long but not the phone number of your grandma who you should be calling more often.
Random packages show up on your door
It’s almost like Diwali all year round. Sometimes orders take a long time before reaching your hands but at least it arrived right?
You know all the best sites to get specific items
That face when you finally score a deal on that pair of shoes at half price.
You have specific credit cards for those sweet rebates
Specific card tailored just for your online shopping needs. Extra points and rebates for online purchases at your favourite store.
You know all the nuances in fit for different stores
