The Very Best In Online Shopping!

Now, I may just be a little slow. Maybe you've discovered this already. 

I have tried to do some shopping online, but I just get lost. I don't have a clue how to find what I'm looking for with only a single (or double) click. My friends, you have just GOT to check out www.shopwiki.com! They actually do all your homework for you.  The site is divvied up and makes shopping online incredibly easy and the site itself is so user friendly that even my techno-slow husband would be able to do it! (Hint hint...)  And if your winters are anything like ours here, shopping online is the way to go. It can be done in your warm bathrobe and fuzzy slippers with a coffee at one elbow and a box of chocolates at the other. (Did I mention you can buy chocolate there too?)

Are you looking for shoes? You find the style you want (all pictured and priced) and you simply click "See all stores" and voila! It is a simple one click to get back to the directory to search out the next item on your wish list.  You can shop by item category, recipient, holiday, seasonal, and even environmentally friendly!

My favorite part on this site is the area for ideas themselves! You simply select any occasion, from regular holidays, birthdays, etc, to their "Apology Gifts" option.  I love this.  They give you some marriage saving, I screwed up, gift giving tips. They even categorize your mistake from little bitty to absolutely massive!  If you go to their Christmas ideas screen, they have actually taken the online shopping to a new level with ways to make your Christmas gift giving easier, both practically and financially. That alone tells me that it is a site you should add to your favorites!

Hi Rhonda - thank you for sharing this great resource.

I have to admit I have already found a good site recently that works really well for me - silkfair.com. Its much more easier to setup and get started and has good service.

......BUT............do they ship internationally??? That is always the big question for me. I love to shop online, because I could get so many things that are not available here, but I can only choose the company´s that ship internationally (and don´t charge an arm and a leg for it).
But I´ll definitely check that out. Thanks for the tip!

You got your first assignment didn't you? I only ask because Soxy Deb did the same on yesterday. I have gotten one assignment and it was for bathroom fixtures that come from the UK.
I declined...so I am probably cut off.

Hey Rhonda I will have to go and check this site out, looks good.

OK so I just checked my blog to see the ones I am following and I lost 60 just like that. Now I come here and find I am not following you.

Anyway here is the answer to the followers issue. Spread it amongst everyone. Bloody Blogger is stuffing around with us. I use my blogroll for my links and this is the reason. Anyway it might help explain. And I would never not follow your blog just remember that!!!!

To fix the Follower issue, go to Dashboard. On the left you will see "Manage". Click on that. To the right of each blog if you see "Anonymously" against any blogs you are folloowing, you needs to change it to "Publicly." It often reverts to Anonymous for some strange reason. Now you will appear on that person's blog. I imagine they have to do the same to reappear on your blog. So spread the word!

That's good to know, Lilly! Thanks!

I have shopped online for several years now and never looked back. You hear horror stories of people who have had their identities stolen etc, but if you are careful its pretty much safe. I mainly buy clothes online and get them from a few sites including Great Universal but I notice shopwiki also do clothes which I will bear in mind when I next shop online.
