Is online shopping taking over

It is surprising how I felt today walking and having look in M&S and TKMaxx how it felt. I do convenience rather than logic and it was good to take a break from planning and reading that I do at the Library when my son does his learning and picked up some burger buns for dinner, for Wednesday and plan to do this again on another day. I really want to buy another book from Waterstones but I have quite a lot to read, and decluttered some books I have in Wimbledon. 

When ordering online, remember that it doesn't always save you time and money and actually it can be better to buy products on the high street because of the worry of the item not being delivered and having to stay in, waiting for the delivery. 

It is good to have the high street if we need bread or milk. The only thing is it hard to find clothing for my son and so been ordering from Amazon as it seems that not many kids clothing on the high street are catering for kids 14 years above. 

I feel that the high street need to catch up, because there seems that peoples shopping habits have started to change. Yet at the weekend, taking the bus that went through Brixton and I was surprised with how lively and how many shops there were and I really want to check it out. 

Then there is Banstead another place I want to visit and walk around, in surrey and we needs towns and the stores on the high street but feel that some just can't stay open. People like to do click and Collect, order food to their doorstep and you don't even have to leave the home at all with UberEats and Deliveroo. 

In researching in Lockdown the stores on the high street suffered a lot with revenue and now you can buy items from Tik Tok, Facebook Market Place and Instagram. 

The Body shop has gone, Wilko's, Debenhams, Whsmiths, some House of Fraser stores have gone. Whsmiths have been taken over but now I prefer to get my notebooks from either TKMaxx or Amazon. 

There is Shein. My nieces buy from there and it is because it is just a click of a button. 

So I do feel the Online world is taking over and a lot will be changing in terms of shopping.
