Lazy Shopping

Okay, I have to admit it. I love online shopping. I have to psych myself up to do any other kind of shopping - groceries, clothing, etc. but I love to sit at the computer in my office and surf the internet for a great deal. Today I found a couple of good deals on some computer software and ended up saving a good amount of money plus enjoying free shipping (added bonus). I don't know why I find it so much easier to shop online. I suppose it is partly convenience but, more than that, I can compare prices between competitors so much faster. I like being able to track my purchases as they travel to the front doorstep. I like the excitement of opening up the box when I arrive home and exploring my newest bargain. In addition, I don't have to put up with the rude teenagers at the mall or the indifferent gum-chewing sales clerk who has never learned about good customer service. I can sit at the computer in my comfy clothes, sip a cup of tea and surf away. So, here's to a good online bargain and to shopping 'til I drop...lazy style.

More Pet Peeves

* People who over-sing familiar songs. Geez, JUST SING THE NOTES! Is there any reason to add 15 extra notes for each written note on the page?!
* Teenagers who shop at the mall and act like they are the only ones there.
* People who do not say 'thank you' when you hold the door for them.
* Pet owners who do not pick up after their poopy pets.
* Chain e-mails.
* People who talk loudly on their cell phones while dining in a public place...especially if they are ignoring someone they are with while they talk on the phone. Rude!
