online shopping

I feel like I should make an effort to try and post three times a day. I'm not actually sure why since I'm pretty sure I'll run out of topics very quickly and just stop posting which defeats the purpose of this but still. I don't know why I like to add the 'but' to some of my sentences since I never have a reason for doing so or anything to write after it so I end up writing 'still' or 'yeah' after it or just leaving it at 'but'. I think it's one of those annoying habits like when people say 'like' all the time or 'um' after every sentence.

So, online shopping. I've actually ordered quite a few things recently so I chose this subject. Oh, and I was helping my friend with her ICT revision yesterday and we went over online shopping. Ok, my major problem with online shopping is that when I buy clothes they never seem to look like the picture in real life. This is really annoying since I either have to send it back or go to the store to return it. Plus, it's quite disappointing since the pictures are so pretty and the real thing doesn't measure up.

Secondly, shipping costs. Since I walk practically everywhere I have no travel costs therefore to go shopping in town it wont cost me anything and shipping is the equivalent so I don't like paying for the shipping. This means that I always overspend to meet the free shipping threshold which means I don't have enough money for something else I may want to buy. Linked to this, delivery can sometimes take so long and not arrive in time for when I bought the thing for. On the bright side, I recently got my shipping refunded because of how much longer it took my parcel to arrive so that was quite good.

I had something else to add but it literally vanished from my brain the moment I tried to remember what it was to write about it. I hate when that happens, especially during exams - whilst writing one point I think of a really good follow up then when I've finished my point and want to move on I forget that reason and have to come up with something rubbish that wouldn't get as many marks.

Again, this is a first world problem complaint and I understand that I sound quite shallow and frivolous blah blah blah.
