Save Over $1600 While You Shop Without Giving Up The Things You Want
By: Ocha Nix
You had better sit down for this one because you are not going to believe it even after you let it sink in. Think about this for a second. Shop all you want and save over $1600. What could you do with an extra $1600? Shop some more?
So what am I talking about you may be asking yourself. Well, consider this before I give you the answer. Let’s say you go shopping twice each week. While you are driving all around town running in and out of all the different stores, you are spending money on gas. Now we all know the price at the pump is growing faster than unwanted weeds in a manicured lawn.
With more and more Americans driving the "luxury" SUV, the gas mileage is less than desirable. So, if you are driving an average of 85 miles while you are shopping, and your SUV gets only 15 miles per gallon, with the cost of a gallon of gas at $2.81 you are spending $15.93 in gasoline. That’s right, almost and extra $16.00 per shopping trip.
Now if you take that $15.93 and multiply it by the two shopping trips each week, you are spending $1656.72 in gas each year just to go shopping. Sure, the amount you are spending on gas will vary depending on how often you actually go shopping as well as the gas mileage you get and the cost of gas. However, as you can see in this example it can be the cost of a great new home theater, or maybe a nice vacation or cruse, or what ever you choose.
So how do you save this $1600 and keep shopping without cutting back on the things you buy? It’s really quite simple, you shop online. The cost of shopping online is zero. You can visit all the stores you want, shop all you want and never crank your car. And one other advantage to shopping online, it is environmental friendly.
Now if you want to save even more, be sure to take advantage of the sites that offer coupons and free shipping. Most of them have a code, which is automatically registered when you check out. This could add up to some great savings to go along with the money you save by shopping online.
Working for 23 years in the industrial distribution industry as sales, and in management, has given me an in-depth knowledge of the sales process as well as customer service. I have always found it to be true that without great customer service, you have no customers, just buyers. Therefore, I always try my best to exceed my customer’s expectations and provide them with only the best.
The same is true when it comes to my online venture providing shoppers a place they can relax, shop and find a great bargain. I offer designer clothing, home & garden items, bedding and more. I invite you to visit me at http://www.ochashomeshop.com.
