Should You Buy Products at Home Shopping Parties?

A bunch of invitations have been arriving for home shopping parties recently. I have been to two candle parties, a chef party and a jewelry party all in the last month. While I enjoy visiting with friends and learning about new products, I find it difficult to actually shop at the parties. I like the featured products, but I just feel too rushed to make a decision. Many of the items are not on display. The only way to see the selections is in a catalog hurriedly passed
around. Who is going to take the time to read the descriptions when they could be talking with
friends or enjoying the refreshments?

At the last candle party, I actually placed an order. Have you completed a multiple part form on your lap? It was a mess. And then the order did not come to me, it was delivered to the hostess. This meant that I will felt obligated to take my time to go pick up my candles.

I personally think internet shopping is far superior. And now with pod casting even product demonstrations can be done effectively online. When I shop online, I can order in my leisure. I can take my time to think about what I want and I can look at the photos and descriptions over and over again if I want. If you are like me and prefer shopping from the convenience of your home, check out our Arttowngifts website for great holiday gift ideas.
