No matter what centuries we belong to, women love to shop. I won't feel ashamed of saying that I love shopping, but I also hate roaming around in malls and simply can't withstand the weekend crowds. You can blame my laziness for that or may be my countryside upbringing.  The most comforting thing that could cater to my shopping demands and ease of doing it is - online shopping. With the onset of so many online shopping websites and amazing offers, I really love to browse and learn more about various sites now. I've already bought great amount of stuffs like camera, handycam, laptop, mobile phone, clothes, bags, makeup, accessories and even shoes from online shopping at amazing deals. I've usually had real good experiences and I've been lucky enough to grab some real amazing deals using coupon codes and sales offered by various online shopping websites. In fact, the coupons made me get my $1200 worth laptop for $750 only! So, you see the power of discount coupons

I'd love to try the Peridot and Graphite. Which one did you like?
