Shopping.....is clicking the answer?

Shopping on line is no doubt popular.  It can be convenient, entertaining, and a way to find items that may not be close by.  It can also be impersonal, disappointing, time consuming, and costly when considering such things as shipping charges.  Although there are many proverbial carrots being dangled in front of us on line, sometimes seeing an item and being able to touch or "size it up" in person...has a definite advantage.  A shopper knows what he is getting...because he's looked at it...stood by it...touched it...examined it...not to mention probably had a conversation about it with the store employee.  It is surely deemed "old fashioned" to criticize on line shopping because it is the way of the world today.  However...there are many wonderful brick and mortar stores, shops and boutiques that are loaded with visual  experiences ...where a shopper can explore, interact, and make decisions face to face with the items they desire.  Granted shopping in pajamas is probably not possible, but... pajamas are for sleeping anyway.  It may just be time to wake up.
