Why won’t your mommy order that present online for you this Christmas?
December 17, 2006
As Christmas nears, many of us including myself have yet to kick into full shopping mode. We have the choice; do we crawl through the maze of shoppers at the nearest mall? Or do we order the gifts online and hope they arrive in time?
The numbers continuously shift each year from the amount of dollars spent at brick and mortar stores to spent online during Christmas season. So you’d think launching an e-store would be a safe bet.
There just happens to be one big issue. Adults.
As my parents ask what I’d like for Christmas, I yank ‘em over to my monitor, and pull up a few websites that just so happen to be in my bookmark toolbar (wink wink). I mention all the techy details in an ecstatic display in hopes of sealing the present deal and wait for their reaction.
Nine out of ten times I’ll hear, “can we get that at the store?� or “I don’t want my credit card to get hacked�. I’m not too sure exactly how a credit card would get “hacked�, but I cut them some slack.
