So, we take a look at our
shopping list and see that we need to purchase the following items:
3 orange Chinese lanterns
6 mermaid stickers
1 pair of boots
Back in the olden days,
this would involve driving to many different stores. But, in the wonderful
technological age we now live in, it takes just a few clicks of the keyboard,
and bingo! Orange lanterns follow us around for the next month or so every time
we log on. Boots and mermaid tails appear every time we sign into our Gmail or
visit Facebook. The number of options the Internet offers up is surpassed only
by the number of hours it would take us to hunt them down ourselves.
Some people complain
about being pursued this way, but we say bring it on. We love our personal
shopper!
Plus, the savings are
enormous because everyone knows you can’t physically go to Hobby Lobby and buy just mermaid stickers.
