Christmas is just around the corner, and for those of you who just hate fighting through the crowds at the shopping malls, like me, why not shop online? Ok, so we’re an online store, so you would think we’re trying to promote our store. Well, kind of, but seriously, I still prefer shopping online. For instance I went looking for my daughters’ gifts at the shopping mall the other day. Boy have I never felt frustrated shopping before! I usually LOVE shopping. But, when it comes to knowing or seeing an ad for the thing advertised, and then heading there NOT finding it, now, that’s a big annoyance! Not only was I wasting time that could be spent doing other things, but it was also tiring and a waste of petrol I say. I was actually looking for a particular toy – the Sylvanian Family collection. It was advertised that they would be at Target. No, not even a stand. So I got home and thought, why don’t I try the internet? Sure enough, there were plenty and even one site dedicated to selling just that collection – www.sylvaniancity.com! They are based in NSW and I thought, I would try buying a small amount to see how reliable they were. 3 days later, my package arrived – in mint condition! It was so easy. No hassle, no crowds, all in the convenience of my own home.  I also got to “window shop” so to speak at the different online stores that had the collection and compare prices. So, if you want to save some time then I strongly suggest shopping online for things that you don’t need to try on. Make sure they are a secure site, and have contact details that you can actually reach should you need your queries answered quickly.
