Retail Therapy is New and Improved!

I used to love going into a store and just browsing. Window shopping is what it was once called. It was a distraction to just look at all the gadgets and gizmos the were available. Lots of times I was glad that I didn't have money for most of them.

Life seems to have a strange way of changing us. For me, going into stores has become a drudgery rather than a pleasure. But the shopping itself remains entertaining. I am able to indulge in by window shopping habit even still, thanks to modern technology.

My shopping is now done in small digital "windows" on my computer or more often my phone. I can browse all the new gadgets and find older ones. There is an abundance of information about any product I can imagine. With access to reviews from other buyers, I am armed with knowledge I could never have gotten from store shelves or labels.

Retail therapy has been upgraded! Online shopping beats the old-fashioned "window shopping".

I am so blessed to have found a way to benefit from this new technology; not only as a shopper but also as a seller. I've been trying to figure it out on by own for over.a decade. With Wealthy Affiliate I have made more progress in a month than in all the last 10. Now that is just amazing!

Thank you WA family!

Great post, Rachele!

Thanks Jeffery!

You're welcome!

Online shopping is the trend!. We shop until we drop. Wondering what would happen in the street shops or even malls if they are getting fewer by the year?

Yes, traditional retail business is being hit. Most malls are increasing their food/restaurant space to make up for loss retails space.

Online shopping provides the more convenient experience today.

Therefore, retail will need to reinvent its business model moving forward compared to online shopping.

I'm just really glad that I can sell products online now!

👍🏼 We all are...

I was never a big window shopper. I only did if I needed something for the house, myself or the kids. Now I'm online nearly every day (which is bad). It's so easy to get carried away with online shopping. But I hope that's could be a thing in our favor as online entrepreneurs.

There weren't many malls before, where shops are put together under an airconditioned atmosphere with the food court to food and all the facilities you need including washrooms. But everywhere today, you can find them in every nook and corner of the city!📷🌈⭐Florentino
