Confessions of An Online Shopper

I am a computer dinosaur. That is what my kids call me. When anything weird pops up on the computer and I have to call my IT person, Amber, to fix it, her first question is always the same, "What did you do?!?!"
That said, I am a wizard at online shopping! I love it and do so much of my Christmas shopping online that, last year, my husband asked me if I was having an affair with the UPS man because his truck was here so often! I always tell him that they are Christmas presents, but, I confess, sometimes they are for me. The feeling I get when I get home from work and see a box on the front porch is nothing short of giddy. When I am home, see his truck and all he does is circle the cul-de-sac, I am SO disappointed. How dare he come down my street and not stop at MY house!
The Internet is the greatest for price comparisons and checking out so many things. I never push the "Send Order Now" button until I have Googled any coupons the site may have. I usually get free shipping, 25% off, or something for free. F - R - E - E is one of my favorite words!!
If you ever need advise on the best sites for different things, best prices, most reliable companies, etc, ask me. I think I have a Masters Degree in online shopping, but don't tell my husband!

  2. Thank you, dear. I think so too, but I didn't want to sound so boastful! :)
