- Normal shopping -> You go into a shop and buy things.
- Window shopping -> You check out the goods usual through the window without buying anything
- Internet shopping -> You browse the products online and buy.
I have come up with a new way of shopping. This serves many purposes. The benefits of this mode of shopping are as follows:
- You save money
- You can do it from the comfort of your home
- It helps develop self control
- It helps develop market research skills
OK now I think you all must have started to wonder what on earth I am on about. So here is the new way of shopping. ***Drum roll*** introducing the all new concept of "catalogue shopping"!!!
You must all be saying what on earth is she on about?!? Well we all get some sort of catalogue every week and people living in Australia, unless they specifically state they don't want to receive catalogues, receive loads and loads of catalogues every week.
Where and how and why did I develop this concept you ask? Well there are many factors influencing my choice to catalogue shop.
- It has been pouring and I have been terribly busy and thus not able to go out to do normal shopping.
- We have been receiving loads of catalogues and all of them are glammed up with colourful pictures and plenty of discounts.
- Every girl loves to shop and get a good discount.
- Everyone wants their value for money and looking through catalogues gives the option of bargain hunting, through comparison and hence enabling you to find the best deals.
So there you go folks. Start your catalogue shopping. You can get the best deals, you can do it from the comfort of your home and you know exactly what you are going to find if and when you go to the store. Also it makes you wiser when buying things and really brings out the true bargain hunter in you! Also folks remember to recycle the catalogues, I know its hard to part with the catalogues but don't worry you know a whole heap are just around the corner!

Read this somewhere but you need to tell me if it is true -
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need but it's on sale!!!

@ FS: It is wrong! I know guys that buy things if they are on sale even if they need it and I also know guys who buy things which are more expensive even if they don't need it. :P
There are always going to be exceptions to every generalized theorem right.
For instance another theorem goes by -
A successful man is one who can earn more than his wife spends.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man!
But I do know of a couple for whom this is an exception :P

Interesting find! Good one.
