Nothing in life is free, especially online returns
Ah the comfort of sitting on your own couch, browsing websites with a cup of coffee, and adding everything you could possibly want to cart. And then promptly returning it all because it didn’t fit. No harm done to you, at least you tried. But businesses however, are trying to cut down on that because…

I, friends, feel like an abject failure. That is harsh, but I do feel that I somehow fell far behind my peer group. I look with envy on their personal and professional successes. I sit back and wonder where I went wrong. Where did I get delayed on my course? I would love to say…
