Online retail growing

     This article talks about how more and more people are using online shopping more often than ever before. There are plenty of reason that more people are using online shopping. The first one that comes to mind is gas prices! Gas prices are climbing faster than anyone can wrap their brain around. This would give anyone the reason to stay home and save their gas for when they really need to go out. Another reason to stay home is if a mother has a couple of babies or kids that she doesn't feel like loading up in the car, having them fight on the way to the store, lose them in the store, load them back up in the car and have them fight on the way home. This allows the mother to stay home and let the kids run around their. This is a lot more convenient for her.
     The only draw backs that I can think of about buying things online is that you aren't able to touch the product. When I shop, I like to handle the product and SEE it and if it is cloths then i like to try them on so I KNOW they fit. Plus when you buy online you have to wait a week or so to get it, but if you don't mind waiting then this doesn't matter to you.
