Test 824: Unit 8: Shopping – Skills 2

Online shopping is buying a product or service over the internet.

Online shopping is easy. You visit a seller’s website, select the product you want to buy, and order it. You can pay online or when you get the product

Online shopping is convenient. With Internet access, you can purchase anything, at any time from anywhere. It could be a meal, a gift for a friend, or even an English course. You can save the trouble of travelling, time, and money.

However, shopping online has disadvantages, too. Firstly, the products you receive are sometimes not exactly what you expect. Secondly, when you are not happy with a product, you can return it, but you have to pay for the shipping. Thirdly, you can easily become a shopaholic because it is easy and there are many products to choose from. You may find it hard to stop yourself from over-shopping. You may even buy things you don’t really need.
