Day to Day with Dave

Episode 9: Shopping

Dave: Today we’re here with three local residents to talk about their shopping habits and how they think their shopping habits affect the world. First up, we have Samantha from Oak Creek. Now Samantha, you’ve noted that nowadays you only buy things online? Samantha: That’s correct Dave. I no longer ever go into a physical store. Stan: Why did you decide to make that decision?

habits

Day to Day with Dave

Episode 9: Shopping

Samantha: Well, Dave. I don’t live close to any of the shopping centers and our main street only has one hardware store and a shoe store. So, if I need toiletries or food or clothing, I have to get in my car and drive all the way across town. It’s really an inconvenience for me. Margo: Don’t you worry about the environmental impact of having all of those delivery trucks come to your house? Samantha: That’s just the thing. I use a Super Shopper Service that consolidates all of my orders into one delivery. Plus, the Super Shopper Service only uses electric trucks for the deliveries. I would probably drive further if I went to each individual store than the one truck drives to get to my house.

Episode 9: Shopping

Margo: What about the packaging? Don’t online purchases come with a lot of unnecessary plastic wrapping? Samantha: That’s an outdated belief. Online shopping used to have huge problems with too much packaging. But, these days companies take measures to make sure their products don’t come with extra packaging. My food items are delivered in reusable bags and shampoo and other toiletries are delivered in a basket. Then if I need to return something, i just put it back in the basket and it gets picked up. Margo: I didn’t know that. That’s fantastic!

Episode 9: Shopping

Keith: How do you make sure the clothes are going to fit? And what about the fabric? I like to try my items on before I buy them and make sure they aren’t too scratchy or rough. Samantha: Well, these days it is easy as pie to return things bought online. Most places have free shipping, so it doesn’t even cost extra. I try my clothes on at home, which is great because I can make sure I have other clothes I can mix and match with them. Dave: It sure sounds like you have it all figured out.
