Different kind of shopping

What I enjoy most about shopping in USA is that they have lots of online shopping. It's a different kind of retail therapy.

1. First, you key in what you are looking for in yahoo or google and do a search. In a second, a list of online shops will appear.


2. You take your time to look into them individually and you pick the best among them


3. Create an account with the online shop and start your shopping


4. Make payment using your credit card


5. An email confirmation will be sent to you together with a tracking number


6. While you wait, you can track where is your shopping


7. After a few days wait, your shopping arrives...



They come in parcels like this one


Inside each parcel, you will get your goods, their latest catalog and a return & refund/exchange form.

You try them on, keep those that you love and return or exchange those that don't fit or those that you don't like. Even for sale items. Notice, even for clothes that have been worn, they will still accept should you decide to return them. All they ask is that you wash them first before returning. The customer service for these online stores is close to impeccable. However, this service cannot be abused. I have bought many things online, both from Singapore and USA. In Singapore, I don't buy clothings because this return/exchange policy is almost non-existent and I can understand why. I only buy used books. But here, in the USA, I thoroughly enjoy online shopping for anything.

Almost everything can be bought online. Groceries, fresh food, seafood, postal stamps...you name them, you have them!
