EDITOR’S LETTER

This month I found myself pondering why the Internet has revolutionised the way we shop on such a large scale. Because of the numerous advantages and benefits, more and more people these days prefer buying things online over the conventional method of going into stores. Don’t get me wrong I’m still ‘Team Shop’ for the experience and aesthetic of it all, but, I do find myself recognising that convenience is the biggest perk that shoehorns me to shop online. Where else can you comfortably shop at midnight whilst laying in your pyjamas? There are no lines to wait in or cashiers to track down to help you with your purchases, and you can do your shopping in minutes. Online shops give us the opportunity to shop 24/7. Also, there is more variety. The choices online are amazing. You can find almost any brand or item you’re looking for. You can get in on the latest international trends without spending money on airfare. A far greater selection of colours and sizes than you will find locally are at your disposal. Plus, the stock is much more plentiful, so you’ll always be able to find your size and colour. Some online shops even accept orders for out-of-stock items and ship when they come in - hurrah! Sending gifts to relatives and friends is easy, no matter where they are. All the packaging and shipping is done for you. Often, they’ll even gift wrap it for you! Now, there is no need to make distance an excuse for not sending a gift on occasions... The older I’m getting the more I’m finding that I’m sounding just like my mother. Now, on that rather bewildering note, I’m off to enjoy my Pumpkin Spiced Latte which has finally (and thankfully) made its inaugural return to The Middle East.
