Buying my first item on line

Feel good.

LOL

But terrifying because shopping has become that much easier which means



My money is in danger!

Look at it this way, you don't have to drive from store to store to find the best price; followed by going back to the store with the best price. So, you're saving a TON on gas and time! If you shop wisely, you'll find discount codes and save on shipping and/or the product.

You can find me on Youtube!

Careful!!!!  The products may be better priced BUT THE SHIPPING AND HANDLING COUPLED WITH THE "TAX" WILL GET YOU EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!

I mainly used Amazon to buy stuff online... Been good so far and the delivery is fast (had prime, so sometimes I get the item the next day)... 2-3 years ago Amazon emailed me that it had delayed my order for one day (didn't really mind) and they gave me a $5 dollar amazon giftcard.. Other purchases would be mainly electronic products (like laptops and games), surprising that the laptops I buy online last longer and have less problems then the laptops from Bestbuy and other stores.

Be careful - because it can become a habit!  Online shopping is easy.  Be careful about giving out your credit card though.  Use PayPal or a like program so you aren't giving out the numbers to just anyone.

I enjoy shopping on line and it is so much more convenient. There are certain items that I would not buy on line, like clothes and foot wear, but if I could find what I need on line I will buy it. This save time and money for me.

Just a little tip... if you haven't joined ebates yet, do it and go through them first.  You earn money back on all your purchases.  Its just an extra percent off, basically!  And don't buy anything without checking for a coupon code.  Money is too scarce to throw it away!
