Save time and money while shopping online?

Last week, my new semester started. This means exciting new courses and several new assignments. The assignment of one of my new courses, Business Information Technology is simple: “blog about something you learned in any of your courses at Tilburg University”.

Because we all have the same assignment and since my class is stuffed with clever and intelligent students, I need to come up with something special to stand out! Fortunately, online shopping becomes more and more social these days and because of that I can write about it on my blog!

Today I will tell you how you can save money and time during online shopping by using social shopping platforms and fashion portals. The first website I would like to tell you about, can save you a lot of time! I am talking about the fashion portal Shopscene. The launch of Shopscene implies that endless shopping sessions, in the high street or on the Internet, belong to the past. With just one click, all fashion collections are in arm’s reach! Who needs 10 different (web)shops to find the perfect little black dress when Shopscene can search for it in more than 40 web shops with over 6300 different brands at the same time? This website can save us busy students lots and lots of time!


Moreover, social shopping platforms can save us money! How? By using Stribe. Stribe brings people with the same brand and shop interests together.



At Stribe, people have the opportunity to become a fan of a certain brand or shop.  Shops happily reward “fans” with nice discounts. The more fans a brand or shop has, the higher the discount!

So people, shop till you drop!
