I’m sure you’ll agree that today the Internet plays an important role in lives of modern people. At present for many people it is a means of entertainment and obtaining of the world news: economic, political, cultural, social, etc. A lot of people use the Internet for communication with their friends, relatives and acquaintances, as it’s much cheaper to communicate with the help of the Internet than to phone them (especially if they live in another country or even on the other continent). Many people use the Internet for doing business; they have a good opportunity to discuss their current problems, deliveries or contracts with its help. The Internet is often used as a way to earn money.

And certainly many people today purchase different things they need in the Internet shops, and I’m not an exception though not long ago I preferred to buy everything in ordinary shops. A small repair in my house has changed my attitude to buying things on the Internet.

Several months ago I decided to change some furniture, rugs and lightning in my house. I asked my friend who is a designer to help me in it. Before her arrival I prepared myself for long shopping, visits to dozens of shops and endless queues, but when she arrived she said that we could solve that problem with the help of the Internet. I didn’t understand and was even puzzled a bit. My friend turned on my computer, entered the Internet and wrote in a search engine: “buy outdoor rugs“. I didn’t think that it would be so easy and certainly I didn’t expect that it would find so many sites! I found a site that offered to shop for area rugs, Persian rugs store, etc. I chose a rug without any difficulties. In the same way we managed to buy cheap leather furniture, two mirrors in a Wall mirrors store and I also placed an order in a shop that offered to buy table lamp.

It took as about an hour and a half to choose all the things I needed, thought I expected to spend all the week-end in the shops. It saved me a lot of time and energy and in the evening cause I wasn’t tired we went for a walk with my husband and our children. It was a great day that changed my life radically! At present I prefer to buy things online.

I think that the majority of people will agree that repair is a necessity, hated routine, activity you can not avoid, that you dislike but nevertheless you can not do without it once in several years.

Nearly a month ago I decided to make a small repair in my house. I asked my friend to help me as she is a designer. We agreed that she would pick me up at 4 p.m. near my house. I wore the most comfortable shoes I had as I thought that we would visit dozens of shops and at agreed time I was standing in the street waiting for my friend. Finally she drove up, stopped the engine and got out of the car. It looked like we didn’t go anywhere.

- Oh, yeah! You are right! Everything we need is just your laptop - she said.

I was puzzled. When we came into the house she explained me that to her mind there was no necessity to spend a lot of time visiting a great number of shops because we had an access to “the greatest invention of the XXth century - the Internet”.

Later I understood that she was right because we find without any difficulties where to shop for rugs (there was a nice shop that offered ivory rugs buy online), we found some sites where one could buy kitchen racks and we managed to find a sofas shop online that offered a great variety of choice. It took us only an hour to choose all the things I needed! I was impressed and even a bit shocked!

The rest of the evening we were pleasantly chatting, surfing on the Internet, drinking coffee and looking through my summer photos. It was a nice evening.

When my friend left I was thinking for some time what a nice thing the Internet was. And starting from that evening I decided to save my precious time and money and buy all necessary things on the Internet!
