There are more and more things we can do online nowadays. From our banking to ordering our food, there is almost nothing that can not be accomplished online. The cyber market for sure is one of the great services offered on the world wide web. Having the option of getting things done at any hour from the comfort of our home is truly a miracle of this century. By avoiding driving, standing in lines, not to mention the distraction of being in the store, you are already spending less time by shopping online. We all love to get more things done in the shortest amount of time as possible. Here are few tips for you to keep in mind to make your online shopping efficient and affordable.
Know the mission and stay on track
It is best to have a shopping list if you are buying multiple items. Whether you have 1 item or 20, have a clear vision of what you want to buy. It is so easy to get distracted online. Maybe you are going to buy a red kettle, but that link leads you to another and you end up spending hours looking at the latest shoe trends. Worse, you end up buying the shoes that you don't need instead of the kettle that you actually need. Save your time and money by having a list and really focusing on the shopping at hand.
Gather and group
If you are buying several items, consolidate your shopping list. There are many search engines that allow you to look for everything on your list while comparing the prices. Not to mention, you will save money on shipping if you do most of your shopping on one site. Most of the time you can get discounts or free shipping if your items come from the same seller or if you spend certain amount of money.

Holidays are all about loving and coming together to celebrate an occasion. Include our planet earth in the circle of love and celebrate all it's gifts by shopping green this season. There are many ways you can be a green shopper. Here are a few tips to get you started on your earth friendly shopping spree.
Shop recycled items and
items that are recyclable
The choices of cool recycled items are endless. Objects that are restored, re-purposed or made from recycled items can be bought from a crafter on etsy, from a local store or even from some high end stores. You won't believe the fun stuff that is out there! We just fell in love with the PEACEBOMB project. The first collection is jewelry made by Laotian artisans from Vietnam War era bombs. What an awesome idea! Take a look at this Forbes article for more environmentally friendly shops.
Buy services or memberships
instead of things
Think of giving massages, candle making classes, city tours, cooking classes, cleaning services, hair cuts, and organizing services as a gift. Everybody has a favorite service or a hobby that they want to learn more about. What a great surprise to receive this as a gift! You can even risk signing them up for something you know they like but have never tried. Think sky diving or a fitness membership. They will forever remember these unique gifts.

We have been fortunate to have had another successful year in business and friendship. They say that "practice makes perfect" after all!
The plans we have for our baby, Mission 2 Organize, in this coming year are BIG. It would be our honor if you would join us on this journey as we reach our 5 year anniversary.
We simply couldn't have done it without your enthusiastic support. With your continued loyalty, the two of us can make all of our clearly laid plans a reality.
Thank you for your support and referrals. Contact us anytime by email or through our website. Together, we look forward to bringing you more peaceful surroundings in 2015.
