For the majority of modern young people the main aim is to have their own flat or house and to live separately from their parents. I personally approve this desire because when you have an aim or objective, you try to change your life, to achieve something, to move forward but not to stay at one place! You develop… To my mind that’s great!
My younger sister bought a flat on her own nearly half a year ago and it was me who helped her to make her flat cosy; I was a so called her personal designer. We bought together paint and some wallpaper, then we paint walls in some rooms and paper some of them in other rooms. After that found furniture that matched the colour and the style of this or that room. And finally we started to buy other things that were able to make sister’s flat cosy, warm and comfortable. It took us months to buy all the rugs, stools and chairs, plates, mirrors, shelves for her numerous books and statuettes, clocks and so on.
Frankly speaking it was very tiresome because every Saturday and Sunday we spent visiting a lot of shops in order to find this or that thing. It was very difficult to compare prices; and sometimes we bought something but then in the next shop we saw the same thing but much cheaper. When we returned home by the end of the day we were both tired and could hardly even to speak and discuss what we had bought. And I got more tired on weekends then during a working week.
But one day I told about this problem to one of my colleagues and she advised me to use the Internet. Next Sunday we were going to buy lighting for Kate’s (my sister) flat. And we decided first of all to turn to the Internet. I didn’t expect that a search engine would find us so many like Novelty lighting store or Wall lights for sale. We visited a shop that offered to buy outdoor floor lamps and placed there an offer; we managed to buy interior lamp that day as well. We both remained satisfied!
It took us only 50 minutes. So we managed to save a lot of money and so money as well because it was easy to compare prices on the Internet.
The rest of the day we spent watching our favourite films, chatting and drinking tea with my beloved cakes. And since that moment we decided to buy all things that we need for repair on the Internet.
