Inspiration - Online or High Street Shopping: Which is Easier?




Online sales accounted for a bigger chunk of total retail revenue than ever before last year, and 2016 will likely produce more of the same. Despite its popularity, some consumers prefer to shop the old-fashioned way and visit their nearest high street or town centre. But is online or high street shopping easier? Read this to find out.
 
1. High street shopping

More consumers shop on the UK high street than online, although this number is slowly decreasing as digital retail grows in popularity. Some customers prefer to visit their nearest shopping because they can touch and feel products before they part with their cash. Unlike online shopping, consumers can try on clothes for size before making a purchase, too. Traditional shopping also provides other benefits. For example, shoppers can engage with retailers as they make a purchase and receive their items instantly, instead of having to wait for their products to be delivered to their door. They can also save on delivery expenses, which could work out to be a considerable amount if a product is large and heavy.

2. Online shopping   

Although high street shopping boasts various benefits, more consumers are shopping online or using credit catalogues . Online retail lets consumers order products from around the world, ideal if they are unable to get to their nearest shopping centre, and choose from a wide range of delivery options. Some retailers even offer next-day delivery, allowing consumers to receive their goods in a quicker time frame. The Internet offers access to a broader range of products, too, including niche items that you won't always be able to find in your nearest town. Online catalogue shopping has become popular in recent years. This allows consumers to place an order online and pay for their purchase in instalments, something that could help them budget more effectively. Shoppers can apply for a credit account online and receive an instant decision about their application in most cases.
