So school has been a wild ride lately and the only thing I can find to calm this ride down is to shop online. I don't regret online shopping at all, eBay is extremely wonderful when it comes to finding reasonable prices for awesome products sold by fantastic sellers that actually give you good stuff!
Lately I've been purchasing a few small things here and there online. I can't really remember a time where I actually purchased something at a mall not online now... I did purchase a few things in the summer, but then I realized, was it really worth the price I paid for? Then I saw eBay and bought some makeup products for under 2 dollars... false eyelashes, lipgloss, etc. I'm happy with my purchases and I'll definitely be making more in the future.
Another online shopping experience I've encountered is Facebook shops. These online stores are run by locals and they sell items that we would want, at low prices or equal to the merchandiser's prices. However, sometimes they do overprice their items but people will probably purchase them anyway because it is a convenient way of buying things without having to deal with everything on your own. These online sellers simply get you to look at what items you would like to purchase, submit an order form, and you can either pay them online or you can set up a facetrade (which is trading your money for their products in person) and actually see the seller whom you are purchasing from. It's a unique way of buying things, especially when you don't want to pay shipping fees, or if you want something that is in stock and want to receive it right away. Prices can be worked on, though.
I think shopping is healthy... but to an extent. I think I'm becoming a bit too girly at this point... shopping is now a respected hobby of mine.
