Online shopping: last two things to bear in mind

 

This post is the last in the series of articles exploring tips that will help you out when online shopping. It will look at the issues of newsletters and cookies.

Newsletters
Signing up to newsletters has several benefits because members are often given more advantage. One tip is to create a new email address for this purpose only so that your regular account is not bombarded with promotional messages. Thanks to this, you will be able to enjoy early bird discounts, special promo codes and other customer reward schemes that involve collecting points. One such example is the H&M Membership Club. Next also offers a VIP program allowing you to book sale shopping slots earlier than non-members.

Cookies
If you have been looking at a particular piece of clothing for quite some while, it is very likely that your website cookies have been taking note. If the online shopping website is aware that you are interested in this item, they might offer a higher sale price since they know that you have a greater chance of buying it. As such, it is important that you clear your cookies before browsing to ensure that you get a fair price as if you were shopping and browsing for the first time.
