Many people in the Western world are hopelessly addicted
to
the shopping experience.
However, as economic situations change many cannot afford
to go out to the mall and blow a couple of thousand. Also,
the
excess production of goods has real costs in energy,
enviornmental degradation, etc,
etc.
Solution: Deptartment stores and other retail shops would
create special accounts for the addicted shopper so that
they could indulge in the shopping experience and actually
check out the merchandise with a special card cleverly
disguised as a credit card. The clerk would then give the
customer a date for when the goods would be delivered to
his/her home and then the store would restock the
merchandise instead of shipping it. The customer would pay
a
low fee for this service.
This semi virtual shopping experience could also be used to
impress dates, inlaws and other parties
