Is Online shopping best for Moms?

Congratulations on entering into the most beautiful phase of Motherhood. And since our cuddly bears demand most of our time, we often find ourselves with the scarcity of time to complete a whole lot of chores. It looks as if life revolves between feeding, burping, and poos initially. Later on, it shifts towards various developmental milestones as kids start their growth trajectory. Being a mommy, we all want to be with kids in their every smallest phase.

But the festive season has hit the doors, Birthday’s are right here. Right from dresses to gifts, return gifts, we opt for the majority of shopping during these months. And the ease of shopping from Online Shopping sites is something which has made our lives much easier. It comes as a big relief from spending hours in the traffic Jam and returning back with an exhausted and cranky baby.

After my 4 years of Motherhood, here are a few reasons, as to How is Online shopping beneficial to Moms :

1. Wide Variety to choose from :

Cuddling baby with one hand, Diaper bag in second, clubbed with the clumsily wrapped shopping bag, is a pain. I was never able to explore the complete range in the offline stores. All that I wanted was to finish the shopping with the first piece / relevant book I loved, be it for the baby or for myself. While in Online Shopping, I love to browse and add to cart those things which I really fancy from the wide variety on the display.

Apart from that, I’m loving the phase of the entrepreneur’s who sell Unique handcrafted, eco-friendly items online, rather than buying their shelf in offline stores. I love getting Novice and unique items as gifts.

2. The Ease of Price Comparison :

No Time! That’s a woeful fact of a mom’s life. I used to enter a store and buy what I wanted, without comparing the prices. It gave me many pocket burns and it is one big reason why I love online shopping. Right from my kid’s clothes, to toys to my Jeans and Shrugs, Online shopping is a big plus as I compare prices and opt for the one which I feel are Value for Money. 

3. Super Deals and Discounts:

That’s the charm of the Online world. With amazing Offers and Discounts, it becomes a lot easier to buy essentials in bulk. More so this Sale season is the time of the year when I shop most of the things online. Even Cashback’s over and above the discounts serve a big purpose. It truly is a huge Money saver and every hundred saved results in a big smile.

One thing I wish to mention here is, go for authentic sites while you are doing Online Shopping.

4. Time Management:

One of the biggest benefits of Online Shopping is, it saves lots of time. Spending hours is something “ just not possible”, after becoming a mom. Usually shopping in a mall takes a full day from your schedule. And not just it is a sheer wastage of time, but after a few minutes, you’re mostly left with a cranky and exhausted baby. Online Shopping is so beneficial for moms, all you need to find is a time when your baby is asleep. Browse, click and place the order at your own sweet time and you’re done!

5. Option to Return:

Rarely the offline stores give you the benefit of return and money refund. Even if they do, you’ll have again visited the store a second time to do that. The hassles of running from the grocery store to toys to clothes stores make Offline shopping a lot tiring. With the benefit of Return policies (right from the home), it becomes much easier to handle our life as a mom.

Hey Moms, Don’t you feel that you can get the most exclusive things for yourself, family and kids, at quite affordable prices, saving lots of time? Yes, that’s how Online shopping summarises for me. Truly, Online shopping is beneficial for moms.
