Shop when?
Sometimes i feel awed by the way Shopping habits have changed over the last two decade of my life. I remember when i was a kid, we used to go shop on Thursdays. Not that we had holiday on Thursdays but we lived at a small place Korba and the market (vendors) used to come on Thursdays only. It was "Buy when available". And then some time mid way the shopping habit again changed. Items were available round the clock and round the calender. And it was "Shop when u want". And now with the avdent of online shopping and sites like snapdeal, crazeal, timesdeal etc. The shopping is now "Shop when there is a deal". This i consider as a great change for many (including me). Because u may or may not need the item (most cases it is the latter) still we buy the deal. We delay or prepone the purchase to buy during deal. It also makes one feel that he has payed more whenever he buys from a "brick and mortar" store.
