I had been introduced to the world of online spree-ing and I had not looked back since.

Basically, bulk purchases and shipping would be more cost-saving so pple would organise such “sprees” to consolidate orders from anybody who is comfortable enough to join. Transactions are usually through interbank or atm transfer and the orders would be sent through local mail after they had arrived. Convenient!

All I need to do will be to check the website for any ongoing sprees, browse through the websites, make my selection, order and pay and wait for the stuff to arrive.

The drawback is that shipping and all takes quite some time to complete so I may receive my items weeks or months later, which is fine with me, no hurry anyway.

Another disadvantage of ordering stuff online is that you don’t get to try the clothes so you can only rely on the model and the dimensions given to estimate if it will fit.

However, I do like the modelling part because I am one who dislike trying out the clothes. I find it troublesome to change in and out of clothes at the fitting room and many a times, I am so discouraged because the clothes I like doesn’t fit me!!!

So when I shop online, the clothes are already modelled for me and I can see how it is matched with other pieces of clothing too. It’s just a big gamble with the size.

As the order is made with wholesalers, chances are it is cheaper than what i can find in retail shops. The clothes nowadays are so expensive, 20 to 30plus for a basic. Call me cheapo but I rejoice at finding 10plus dollars tops online, since clothes will be worn out after some time too.

Now, all I have to do is to wait for my stuff to arrive! Yippee!
