What makes internet shopping so addictive? I often find myself browsing ASOS, Topshop, Missguided at 2/3 in the morning when I can't sleep. Online shopping is addictive and now there's no real way of stopping it. I thought I'd write an article about how the internet has changed my shopping habits!It feels weird to think about the days without Internet, the days without dial-up internet connections even the days of broadband (we used to have Virgin Media Broadband!) We're now in the days of wireless, 3g, 4g, and wireless hotspots. Now everywhere we go we're connected to the internet one way or another. So here are some of the reasons why Internet shopping has changed my shopping habits!More ConvenientOne thing I do love about online shopping is that it's more convenient. There's no need to get dressed up or shop within the opening times of your favourite store. You can easily shop from the comfort of your own bed in your pyjamas! No matter how busy you are or if you don't have time to visit a store, shopping online allows you to buy things without hurting a busy schedule.Save you a few £'s on your purchasesAnother reason why online shopping is great is that there's more offers online. With voucher sites such as Voucher codes and Voucherful it's easier to save money on your purchase more than ever. I always check voucher code iphone apps and sign up to emails from high-street stores as they are more than likely going to send you offers to save money! Cheaper alternatives to the High-street onlineWhat's great about the internet is that it's allowed for businesses to solely sell online. Brands like ASOS, Missguided & Boohoo have all made their names online and have become daily visits of mine when I'm online. They sometimes offer cheaper alternatives then on the high-street such as one top maybe £20 in Topshop but you can find the same thing for £10 from ASOS.Avoids crowds & queues Another benefit of online shopping is it avoids crowds and queues. One thing I really can't stand about some shops is how big the queues are as it really does put me off buying something. Also it avoids paying car parking fees. Some places charge way too much! Even though sometimes you still end up paying the equivalent to car parking fees with delivery charges!Product VarietyOnline shopping has given us more variety than ever with what we buy. A beauty to online shopping is that there's so many online sites competing with each other to sell products at the best possible price. It's worth looking online on various websites for reviews but also for discount codes before you make a purchase!What do you enjoy most about online shopping?
