Not
on the high street
one thing that I
loved to do with my mum when I was little girl was go shopping.
I miss that.
I miss window
shopping too where all if the shop widows would be dressed up with
the latest product that the shops have to offer.
Now when you hit the
hight street all you see are sale/discount stickers on the windows,
closing down adverts or charity shops.
Sadly the high
street is not the one that I remember from my childhood dream but now
one that I today rarely visit and dread to take my children.
In part I am guilty
of this due to taking to my online shopping choices then to brave the
elements and stand in lines. to pay or self checkout If the internet
had away of enabling you to smell bread when you buy it then no one
would every leave home.
Yet I miss it and
would have loved to have had a high street shop because without using
all of your 5 senses you are only really using your eyes to buy
anything.
Yes it is true that
we shop with our eyes, but when it come to buying any thing it pays
to able able to use all five senses when doing so.
When buying on line
you so not always get the right product or services and at times end
up keeping the item because or the hassle of sending it back or
complaining, but if you have brought it direct. You may not have
brought it at all.
When I go shopping
of clothes I love to try them on, to touch the fabric and make sure
that the sticking is good quality and the print too.
Yet I still do a lot
of my shopping on line now especially when I know what I am buying
and it is the same items every week.
Yet when it comes to
wanting to buy something different and gifts for friends, family and
love one I like to look for something new and outside the box.
So I like places
that offer this on the high street and on line.
I love charity shops
you never now what you might find and I like online stores like
“Studio”https://www.studio.co.uk/
“Not on the high
street.” https://www.notonthehighstreet.com/
Or when it comes to
taking photos and personalising them of loved ones the list of online
photo business is endless
It is the same when
I look for jewellery I would love to have an item custom made and
personalized. Some thing like this is more of a skill and a
specialized trade one that we are losing. This is mainly due to
items being mass-produced.
