Shopping on the Internet is becoming more and more popular．Why do people use the Internet to shop? Some people say it is more convenient．They don’t have to leave their homes to order something; they can shop for anything they want at any time; they can find things for sale that they can’t find in the stores near their homes．Still other people say they can find better prices on the Internet．
If you want to buy something on the Internet, you need a credit(信用)card．You have to type your credit card number and information on the website(网页)and send them to the store over the Internet．You have to be sure that the store will not use your information in the wrong way．You don’t want someone to get your credit card number, so be careful with it, beause people sometimes steal(窃取)credit card numbers from stores．
The Internet is also a good place to go window-shopping．Window-shopping is when you look at the things for sale in a store, but don’t plan to buy anything．In window-shopping you can see what kinds of things you are able to get and how much they cost．Some stores like Ross Stores have a website for information about their stores, but not for shopping．Some stores have a website for information about their stores, and can shop on-line there, such as Office Depot, Payless Shoe Source, Safeway．Some stores like Amazon．com are only for on-line shopping．
