The level of impact the internet has on my everyday life
is tremendous. I wake up and lay in the bed till I hear little feet on the
floor. While I lay there I check my email and take a look over my Facebook
page. I also check my bank account and if I need to pay my bills, credit cards
mainly. Throughout the day I check emails and when working on home work for
school I am always using Goggle for something or looking up something to research.
I have a question I do not jump over to the library to do my research I grab my
phone or computer to look up how the best way to clean your microwave or the
best crackpot barbecue. I found a great meatloaf once. I look at YouTube videos
and look at the news on my phone. I look up phone numbers and order pizza
online. You name it I do it! The internet is a wonderful place when you have
four children to drag around.
The Internet affects my buying habits by
making it so much easier to shop. I love to bargain shop and I love to do it
online. I love Zulily! I love, love, love the great deal I find there. I think
that if I did not need some things right away I would so much more of my shopping
online. Let’s face it when you have children it is much easier to go online and
order pizza or order a favorite tee-shirt than to get everyone ready and drag
them out to squeeze them in a dressing room while you try to try on a few
articles. It is awful and by the time you get the first shirt on you are ready
to leave and have lost all interest in trying on the others. It just does not
matter anymore. I have even had one of my boys do a swan dive out of the
shopping cart on to the floor while I was trying on a pair of pants. A, as in
one pair of pants! I was horrified, but, did not expect much more out of my
little red headed dare devil. He was fine too, did not cry one tear. So, yes
please, give me a computer and I will shop all day.
So if I had the choice to shop
online or from a brick and mortar store I would so go for the online option
each time. Not to mention you can look up what you want and get it. Nothing is
put in your way unless you veer from your mission. Gap favorite tee here I
come, you’re in and out in no time at all and you did not see any shinny quarters
(things that make you stop and put you off course) along the way. Not to
mention all the extra stuff your children pick up and want. That bottle of
shampoo from Wal-Mart just cost you fifty dollars when you have to go get it
with your children. Keep way from the toys please!
