I noticed that one of the shopping apps in my country is having so many promos or sales. It is very tempting to check the items. Despite the huge amount of discounted prices, I activated my self-control not to buy anything for this year. With the exemption of basic needs, they are far more important than buying tangible things due to this pandemic. Are you active shoppers online at present? Do you prioritize things to buy due to this pandemic? Image Credit: tr3.cbsistatic.com

I don't use any shopping apps. I usually buy only what I need, but at this time of year, I will indulge a little bit.

I am not fond of buying online, too. I prefer buying things in shops.

@Shavkat I don't mind buying online. I use Amazon quite a bit. I've also used a couple of other sites with good results.

I already spend a bit today. It's on cat food, cat litters and rice seasonings. I want to take advantage of the free shipping and cashback. Cat food and cat litters are the thing that's always important, pandemic or not.

I am so vigilant in checking the items thoroughly before buying them. Some online sellers are bad at giving poor services.

@Shavkat You 2000, born in 90 child, I get it, nothing wrong with that, I just come from a different world. I saw all this happen, my generation only one who really saw it from start to finish not that its finished but where its at now. It is crazy how it used to be to how it is now. We were young enough to be excited and now old enough to be this is not what you said it would be.

Due to pandemic I was forced to create an account on Shoppee where I mostly buy my things, like a new table and electric fan, until I got hook up... lol! But I was able to control myself, I just buy what is really essential. But now I am back at the office... I got back to my old bad habit - STARBUCKS!

Having some coffee from Starbucks is fine. It is a matter of rewarding ourselves for working so hard. I am with you when it comes to controlling oneself in buying online.
