Shopping Online

Online shopping has become huge within the past few years for being both convenient and sometimes even cheaper. Many people, including myself, have succumb to this trend which isn't necessarily a bad thing.  Without having my own car on campus, it's harder to get to the mall or any stores I need to go to. Being able to just shop at home from the comfort of my bed and pajamas is an unarguably great alternative. Another plus is that there are almost always "online only" sales that you won't find in stores. That being said, today I'm going to share with you a few companies that have great online products and sales. These are just a few websites that allow you to order online and receive right at your door just from the click of a button!

      Retail Stores:

• Old Navy
• Forever 21
• Aeropostale
• American Eagle
• Charlotte Russe

      Food:

• Papa Johns
• Dominos
• Jimmy John's

In addition to the stores having their own sales, there are multiple companies designed to provide you with even more coupons. Every time I plan to shop online, I check these websites to check if I could save any more money.  I always use Retail Me Not but another website that is popular is Groupon. Also, always check what their shipping rate is, some have flat rates, free over a certain amount or if you're lucky, completely free!

Now, there are also businesses that are strictly online but I have personally never ordered off one of these. I've seen that they are very cheap but some are risky as you might not get exactly what you thought you ordered. My best advice for these is to just be careful; I usually trust companies that I have heard about before. Basically, if the site gives you a sketchy vibe then it probably is. As great as online shopping is, it can be risky especially with cheap, foreign websites. Be careful where you shop and put your card information into. Yet, if you are just aware and stick with websites you know are legit, you should be just fine. 

In the future, if you are looking for something in particular or just want to shop around for fun, try out some online shopping, you won't regret it!
