5 WAYS TO ONLINE SHOP LIKE A PRO!

Shopping from the comfort of your own home has fast become the new norm of the modern world. It’s easy, convenient, and the Internet never closes.

However, shoppers can quickly become overwhelmed, by choice and eventually toss in the towel. Or worse, impulse purchase!     

To help you avoid becoming another e-commerce returns stat, I have put together the following: 

5 WAYS TO ONLINE SHOP LIKE A PRO:

1)   Create a Clear Shopping List And Stick to It

Save yourself from sinking down the rabbit hole of insta scrolling, and clearly itemize what you’re looking for before you begin. Make sure your shopping list only contains items that are lacking in your wardrobe, that you have pieces to wear them with and that they suit your current lifestyle.  

2)   Download Price Saving Apps

So you’ve got your shopping list, now let’s get you the best price possible! Lucky for the  online shoppers of today, there are apps that can save you both time and money and do the hunting for you. Some great price saving shopping apps include ShopBack, Catch, Wish  and Honey. 

3)   Read Sizing Charts/Customer Reviews  

It’s inevitable that sizing/fit differs across all brands. To avoid misfit, you should always take a moment to read over the sizing chart before making a purchase. If you accompany this by checking what size the model is wearing and reading a couple of customer reviews, (they often mention the way a garment fits), then you should be A OK! 

4)   Beware of Currency Converter

It seems quite straight forward, but often online shoppers reach the checkout only to find that their total has increased due to currency conversion. This is the worldwide web remember! A quick double check straight off the bat will help eliminate later disappointment. 

5)   Familiarise Yourself with Store Return Policies

Each online retailer will have their own set of T&Cs when it comes to a Returns Policy. Often there is a store credit for exchange granted, whilst few will offer a refund, (usually with timing and/or sale item restrictions). Be sure to feel comfortable with these rules and look for a simple refund or exchange policy. 

 Happy Shopping!!
