The “S” word

Don’t say the “S” word if my Sweetie is around. I’ve learned my lesson years ago. This is not just true for my Sweetie alone but for most women I know and that include my 2 daughters and my mommy dearest. What is the “S” word? It stands for “SALE”. It also stands for “shopping and store”. So if you don’t want to get in trouble, then don’t say the “S” word. LOL. But then, even if I kept my silence, those 4 girls in my life find their way to the shopping mall every time there is huge sale, bargain, clearance, discount, and what-have-yous. I think it’s a woman’s basic instinct or maybe it’s in their genes. I really don’t know.

Recently, I got a little worried. My Sweetie has not been in the store lately except there regular weekends trip to the grocery store to buy our food supplies. Oh yes, I surely know if she has been in any store no matter how hard she tried to keep it secret from me. Though I secretly celebrate, I was kinda worried. It’s very unlikely of her. So I investigate.  She doesn’t go shopping in the store anymore. She shops – online! Ha!

I wouldn’t know about it if I didn’t come home and received one of her packages delivered at the house. Aha! Caught red-handed, she told me that she bought new pairs nikeid size 7 metal cleats for my boy and a nice menssoccer sweat pants zippered ankle for me in my color and other new stuff for the new grill for our summer weekends cookout. Well, I had to admit I was kinda impressed because when I saw the receipt, she did get a good deal.

So now do you think online shopping change anything at all in our relationship? Yes, it did. I become an online shopper now too. I realized that Become.com is the coolest online comparison shopping website where you can find thousands of cool stuff where you can compare prizes and brands from almost all leading retail stores. Become.com serves as an efficient search engine for wise buyers who don’t only want to save money but time as well. They provide a comparison shopping technology which is an effective tool to sort out large selection of products and shop for discounts and lowest prizes you could imagine. And yes, I got myself a bike rack for suv walmart brand with discount coupon.
Well, I am not really well verse in shopping lingo like my Sweetie. All I know is that, I love Become.com because I don’t have to drive my Sweetie to the Mall and wait for hours while she browses over hundreds of items and comparing prizes. She can go shopping in her PJs while doing the laundry and preparing my lunch. Now, with Become.com, you can go ahead… and say the “S” word!
