Nowadays, online shopping is a hobby for many people. Overall, Americans spent $111.5 billion dollars online. This is 8.9 percent of total retail sales. Not surprisingly, younger people do a much higher portion of their shopping online than older population.

Another trend that we’ve observed for a while is that industries tend to shift from lifetime items to items with planned obsolescence. When it comes to clothing, we can see now better-looking styles, but the quality is relatively poorer. A cell phone is not even expected to last longer than 2 years.

We surveyed 200 students and asked them about their favorite online shopping apps and websites. Here is a list of top 10 shopping places.

eBay allows you to bargain and shop online. It is convenient to purchase things like books, clothes, electronic devices, and much more. It is also convenient to sell an item you no longer need. eBay ensures transaction security.

‘Impulsive shopping done easily’ could be an Amazon slogan. Amazon posts Deals of the Day and has a lot of beautiful lists to browse through. According to Business Insider, 43% of U.S. online sales went through Amazon in 2016.

When you shop there frequently, Amazon analyzes your data and offers suggestions you might like in the future. Did you know that Amazon Student membership is 50% less than the regular Amazon Prime.

Groupon allows you to purchase goods, services, hotels, restaurant deals, entertainment tickets and more for pennies on the dollar.

Newegg is a great website for buying electronics. It is praised for its variety and valuable customer comments. In addition to electronics, you can find office products, sporting goods, watches, apparel, and sometimes even baby products and pet stuff. We like the fact that they have a student store, where you can register with your .edu account to get exclusive deals.

This site allows you to sell your own clothes to other people across the United States. It has convenient filters as well as an opportunity to read forums about real-life topics. Vinted creates a community with which one can identify, contribute to it by selling clothes, and benefit from being a part of it by buying cheaper branded items.

Bondi Bands are posting their specials and product photos on social media, which makes it easy to follow and get connected. The company specializes in athletic compression socks, sweat wicking headbands, armbands, and other fitness equipment. Their selection is great, but their deals are even better.
