Sometimes conventional shopping just isn’t the best option. Some of us suffer from social phobias. Sometimes men aren’t really into the whole shopping experience, but still want to look amazing. Some people aren’t physically able to withstand the demands of shopping, and some people just don’t want to fight the traffic.
Whatever the reason may be, there are plenty of unconventional and high tech ways to shop. If you’re not familiar with any of these methods, then you’ve come to the right place. Here are a few of the ways you can use technology to shop from wherever you wish to place an order.

Santa’s little helper will be in the palm of your hand all along the way. The application basically keeps track of what gifts you want to buy for who, and a running log on the total cost.
