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.

It's not lazy...it's more effective & less costly. Think about it, by shopping online, you avoid all those sales displays in stores, thus you don't spend extra money on 20pkgs of spring printed paper towels just because they are on sale! Online shopping saves gas, and therefore could be considered "green" since you are not polluting the atmosphere by driving your non-hybrid vehicle around town from store to store! So, I suppose this all means you are an efficient, nature supporting, comfy shoes wearing, tea drinking, smarty-pants!
