Why people shop online?

Online shopping in the recent times has become the most sought mode of buying things. A lot of things like books, electronics, grocery and clothes are all bought online with a help of few clicks. But why are people shifting to online buying than in store purchasing. Is it because of COVID-19 only ?? I don't think so. There are a number of reasons why people tend to online buy stuff they want, basically for the convenience it offers. Let's iterate all the reasons for the shift in buying strategy :

1. The variety and range of the products is really huge no matter what item is in consideration.

2. You need not travel to the store, which in most cases a tiresome job to get done, especially in the urban area.

3. Better pricing with coupons and discounts offered by various website stores.

4. Easy and quick turnover times for product replacement and refunds.

5. No sales pressure from the shopkeeper.

6. Quality and discreet shipping service offered.

7. Easy checkout process, no need to wait in the queue for payments.

8. Clear product description provided, also vendor details are transparent making it a secured transaction.

So generally with all the pros discussed I guess in the years to come online shopping is going to stay. 

I however personally feel in store purchase gives me more pleasure as I can verify the product completely before buying it. What's your say? Do write your thoughts.

A cry not heard!

Ray of light far from sight All his need is a caring feed A place to sleep, a blanket to keep - the despodent waif Warm and safe Cruel men see the poor one plead, Emptiness filled hearts hesitant to share a part. On the pavement's corner sits this lad a bit. Weak and pale telling his tale None hear Do they feign fear? Hoping - is all he could do for some fresh hot stew Every passer-by down the lane Ignore this guy and all his pain Why is this scene not wiping off my brain Serene it Remains Revives time and again As I sit by the window of the train.

SUPW - Socially useful and productive work!

Say primary school or exams - it brings back memories of lot of fun filled activities along with the normal syllabus. Languages, Basic math,science and social studies are the ones included in the normal stream. The ones out of this are - General Knowledge, moral science, story telling, project work - these become the building block for a child's growth in a complete way. Last week an evening as I returned home, a neighbour's kid was waiting for me the enitre afternoon for help.He needed guidance to complete his project work.

SUPW is another learning area falling under the non-scholatic domain - This ensures that the students develop better understanding of their social and environmental issues. It also encourages students to take up varities of activities,which are productive a...

Cent story 17: Love like rain

Rain poured softly the day Krishna first saw Purvi—draped in yellow, lighting incense at the Ganapati pandal. Their eyes met like a prayer answered. Thunder rolled, but all he heard was her laughter. From borrowed umbrellas to shared street-side chai, their story bloomed. Every rain after felt like a song only they understood. When they wed under cloudy skies, even the priest smiled, “Blessed by Bappa Himself.” Years passed, but every drizzle pulled them back to that pandal, that glance, that moment. Love, like rain, sometimes arrives quietly—soaking deep, leaving music in its wake. Krishna and Purvi were always meant to be.
