Shoptastic Shopping Apps

Shopping apps are a growing internet trend I guess you can call it. Although I haven't always kept up with all the upcoming trends there is one I decided to follow. Shopping apps aren't a must have for everyone but these days it is becoming a more commonly used thing. People are in a rush or always on the go. Others don't like waiting and crowds the parking lots and a portion of us don't have transportation at our disposal 24/7. For those of us who fall in one of these categories do favor these apps. Some say why the need for the apps when you can just go online and check the website out and this much is true but not so much anymore. Some of the apps that you can download are not desktop friendly so to speak. I can't remember what app it was that I was checking out after learning of its existence from a commercial but I didn't have the ability to do some of the functions from a desktop only through the app. However I was going through a list of things that I am in need of as I do on a daily basis. As I was going through my routine of items and sites I got lucky. I found one of the items I was looking for within the price range I wanted and the option of delivery. A dinning room table set with a center leaf in case I wanted to make it bigger if I had company. I had no real clue to what style I was looking for due to a small budget. So I was just browsing items within my preset price range. I knew that the smaller the budget the smaller the choices very little room to be picky. I downloaded the app on a device and I must say I had a fantastic shopping experience.I shopped from the privacy of my home. There were no lines,no parking troubles,no crowds. Delivery for a small additional fee and I found something perfect for me. I like to shop however the crowds especially when sales are going on can be insane. I hate when I do go out to a store to shop and I am in a small crowded aisle trying to figure out what is the best deal and I am in the way no matter where I stand. Its no easy task to do math in your head and continually be interrupted and have to start all over again. Well that brings my share for the day to a conclusion. Who else is using online shopping apps to make life a little easier? Do you like them or just something you might use in a pinch?

The freedom to be mobile is what makes it become a favorite. No more having to be glued to your desktop you can be on your way to do what you need and shop until you reach your destination,

Almost all the major supermarkets down here encourage online shopping these days... I've never tried it... I've used Domino's Pizza app to order online though...

@OKennedy The Domino's app that I used was pretty easy even for someone like me who's not very techy... Maybe because their menu is quite structured so it's not hard to navigate around the app... And I could even use paypal to pay...

@sishy7 I don't remember what pizza one I used I was trying to order a specialty pizza for someone else and it was not easy but then again these apps are made for the basic orders not specialty stuff really

I ordered pizza online once and it wasn't as easy as telling someone who you know won't mess it up. Now the walmart one is pretty cool to use because they used to give you these little eco-friendly bags.
