It was not too long ago that a few of my friends were conversing about how everything is now going online, Cars, Fashion, Real estate, they even talked about food stuff and then Viola there is a foodstuff website as well, but the question is; are the easiest and convenient things more expensive? Talk about paying for delivery, shopping excessively, does it cost more?
Drawing the spotlight on just Online shopping, there have been many times people just decide to shop not because they need the extra clothing but excuses like boredom, Flash sales, Daily deals, It's too cheap, and a long list of other things are their reason.
Online Shopping was created for a lot of reasons, some of which are convenient shopping, Variety of products and much more detailed description of clothing. Aside the visuals that come with buying from a physical store, it does get tiring looking for the perfect fit, the most befitting colour and before you know it, time wasted no result yielded time to go home!
Online shopping, on the other hand is a lot more precise, direct and before you know it you have a lot in your cart and your finances are suffering for it. We are all for the convenient shopping but to an extent Is it not slightly counterproductive? It is not farfetched that when something is easier and convenient then the addiction sets in.
These days, shopping for birthday gifts can be done Online, Christmas Present, Mother’s day cakes, even food and drinks which is wonderful but at the same time we have people that have fashion websites like Kaymu.com.gh, Asos.com, Houseoffraser.co.uk bookmarked in their history whether at work, Sitting at home, driving, they are constantly shopping!
Bear in mind that not every shopaholic is buoyant enough to afford that spending but when you log on to a website and obviously the constant need to own something new rears its head, it is not so hard to start buying compulsively. Then you consider the daily deals that are always advertised, Flash sales of items you have always wanted, how can one say NO?
These days brands are taking their products to the next level, they are mostly partnering with online shops in order to expand their clientele base as well as reach out to a larger crowd. Case scenario if you are a huge fan of MAC Cosmetics and then you realize that they have partnered with Kaymu.com.gh and they are having flash sales what is the probability that you will not buy on the spot all the MAC products you have always wanted? As compared to knowing the sales was in a physical location which is probably far from your residence? Would you travel all the way because you want to spend some more money?
It is necessary to have things at our beck and call but it is also important to know where to draw the line. If you are a fashion obsessed person of course to you there is nothing as amazing as having access to international Clothing that you have always admired but rare to find locally, also the probability of buying the same clothes as the person in your geographical location is quite slim when you shop online these are great things not to mention the satisfaction when you get the delivery of the items but that being said even if you are a large earner it is also necessary to be cautious with spending because the larger your income the higher the expenses.
Of course Online shopping is a blessing and a curse when you have at liberty a long list of websites at your disposal and the only requirement is to log on to your desired website, It takes a lot not to be addicted.
