Assignment #5 ↓☺

I chose the article Back to school shopping bargains and Hot sellers on Ebay. The Back to school bargains article caught my eye because I love back to school shopping... It's my favorite shopping trip of the year! This article talked about how used clothing stores in Mentor like Plato's closet had good sales and nice clothes for a great price. They have clothing brands like Hollister, American Eagle, and Abercrombie for cheap prices, even in the downfall of the American economy. I'm always on the look out for great bargains. There you can find name brand Jeans for just $16! I learned that to get the best, you don't always have to go to the actual store and pay an arm and a leg for a T-Shirt. Going to little stores like this, saves a lot of money and time. Next time that I go clothes shopping, I'll be sure to check out discount stores like this one
Before writing my blog, I was just on Ebay looking at some auctions for new ipod nano accessories. When I looked on the website to find my articles, I saw this one and wanted to read it. The article talked about what is and isn't selling on Ebay and how certain sellers are making large amounts of money off of selling these items. These items include designer purses and jeans, digital cameras, model trains and musical instruments. This article does not relate to me as much as it does to my dad. My dad is on Ebay and buys computer parts, printers, cameras, and the occasional things for me(☺). He's a big computer guy and likes to play around with computers and cameras. On Ebay, he can get good deals on things. I learned that you don't have to sell new items to make a decent profit on things. I also learned that you can buy used things for a cheaper price that are still in good condition.
