Alright I’m ashamed to admit it but I did not have an ebay account before today. I have used it a couple times in the past with somebody else’s account, but never on my own. Thats about to change. I signed up for my own account and I’m going to try and buy all my clothing online for a while. 

The prices are lower then retail, but there is an increased risk is other areas. Such as fake brands, never receiving the item (relatively low risk) or not getting the right size. However I think those risks are manageable and thus I’m going to attempt to  reduce my clothing bill by purchasing everything online.

Before this I have bought an mp3 player online and couple small things, but there was no chance of wrong sizes. This will definitely be an interesting experience, but if I can keep the money spending low it will be worth it. 

I’m not getting a full load of hours at work, so I’m trying to save money in other areas to compensate.
