Being an avid online shopper myself, I can relate very well to many of these thoughts because most of these are what I experience on a weekly basis.
These days, online shopping is becoming more prevalent, so much so that we are turning to these avenues than going to the stores itself.

Even though shopping online can save a hell lot of time, it also comes with its own set of problems.
Read on to find out more!
1.The feeling of waiting………….
Waiting for parcels is like waiting for your period. You don’t know when it is coming, nor will you know when it will even come. We always have thoughts like, “Jialat, did SingPost lose my parcel again? Sian, I should have just paid S$3 more for Registered Mail.”
2.We have our hiding spots for parcels when we are not home
Not only do the delivery man have to do their job, they also have to double up as ninjas. We always have our secret hiding spots – be it at the back of our shoe racks or inside our pots of plants.
3.Deciding whether to go for Normal mail or Courier Services
“It’s either I only pay S$1.70 for normal mail, or S$3.90 for registered mail. Should I just save the S$3? But then what if my parcel gets lost ah? But S$3.90 is quite expensive for mailing hor.” And that goes on forever.
4.Camping for clothes
There’s a launch at 8pm tonight? Sets alarm at 7.58pm, 7.59pm, 8pm and gets boyfriend to do it as well.
5. Getting “presents”
Every day is like Christmas for all avid online shoppers. Just that we are the one sending presents to ourself.
6. Receiving clothes that don’t fit
“I thought you say it fits UK8 well? I’m a UK8 and why do I look like a dumpling? AM I FAT NOW?”

 7. Leaving the price tag on so you can resell it
Especially when you don’t have 100% confidence that it’s a piece you are definitely going to wear. Which is why we always keep the tags on in case we decide to sell it on Carousell. #BNWT mah.
8. iBanking is a godsend
No more having to go down to the ATM to transfer money, and then having to take a screenshot of the transaction receipt.
