Shopping online is not only convenient and beneficial as compared to shopping in stores, but it also provides numerous benefits buyers tend to overpass. Shopping in offline stores or malls may lead to impulsive and crazy purchasing especially during discount sales with retailers offering "Buy 3 Get 3" specials. By shopping this way, you may end up buying the products that you don't actually need. Whereas you do not tend to spend extravagantly while shopping online. Why?
Because all the selected items are visible in the shopping cart at the time of checkout, giving the exact count and the final price of the items. You don't have to stand in queue for billing and can also modify or cancel the order even after placing it. Follow these shopping rules mentioned below while online shopping : RULE #1 "Shop what you require" You have shortlisted ONLY 4 things that you need to buy according to your monthly budget. Hence you check out the home page of Amazon, Flipkart or may be a price comparison website and you get lured by swirling offers that you are unable to resist. Hence you end up buying 6-7 items that you may not even require. This should not occur. WANT < NEED = BUY RULE #2 "Compare price" Even if you want to buy any electronic item like mobile or apparel or shoes, don't be loyal to any particular store. Compare its price over numerous other online retailers and buy it from the one which is giving best deal. Hence, Awesome Discounts and Offers are just a click away.. RULE #3 "Always keep an eye for discounts" All the retailers come up with " Best Deals of the Day". They come and go, so keep a track of them so that you do not miss out any great opportunity. RULE #4 "Listen to your brain, Not your heart" Retail therapy always makes you feel better. You can pamper yourself sometimes during Christmas time/ Summer time but avoid going overboard. Also stick to brands/ products that you think will give value for money. RULE #5 "Choose the right size" While purchasing clothes or shoes, make sure you choose the right size to hassle of getting exchanged or returned in case of wrong size. Online retailers have size chart and measurements written in all the products and if you follow them correctly, you will never be disappointed. RULE #6 "Do Secure shopping" Internet scams and frauds are very common these days, so you have to be cautious while online shopping. Never store your credit card details and always pay through secured payment gateways like PayUMoney, Paypal, CC Avenue etc. |
