Online shopping

Recently I was buying something online. I noticed that things that are on sale or on promotions bring our attention easier even though we don't really need them too much. On shops sites there are lots of advertisements of things that are on sale or on promotion which make us look at them and start thinking if we might need them. Online shops persuade us to buy more things by using different tricks like free shipping above certain amount. Also I noticed that things online are usually cheaper than in regular shops, but considering the costs of shipping, total amount can be the same unless you are buying lots of things. Shopping online can be tricky because we buy more things than we initially wanted or things that we don't really need at all so we spent more that we would spend in regular shop.

Badly parked cars

On my way to school I noticed lots of cars which were parked on grass and pavements. It seems to be a problem in the whole Warsaw. Car drivers sometimes don't care where they park their cars. It can be a grass which will turn in to muddy puddle in a moment or it can be a pavement where the cars leave no space for pedestrians. Although not only the drivers should be blamed for this but also city planners who allow to built apartment blocks, shops, and many other facilities everywhere but do not think about making parking spaces near them. As a result drivers park illegally on grass or pavement because it is usually hard to find a place to park somewhere near the place you want to go. I think that more parking spaces should be built, it will be helpful for drivers and also won't interrupt pedestrians on their way. Also it just look better if there is parking space rather than awry parked car on the dirt that used to be grass.
