We are glad to present you an interview with one of the participants of the site "DoPokupki. Ru"
Larissa - a young mother from Lipetsk, a cheerful and energetic person, for whom shopping in Joint Shopping is a pleasure shopping.
Larissa, good afternoon! Please tell us about how you got acquainted with Joint Purchases or, as they are also called, joint venture
- My acquaintance with Joint Purchases, as such, happened through my purchasing guru and part-time friend in the "Country of Mothers" and in life - Misyu, who is now an honorary org of all SM (StranaMam). It was from her that I learned for the first time in my life that there is such a beast - joint purchases. I made my first purchase just from her submission. To be honest, at first it was scary, the stereotype: "Some unknown purchases, no one knows who I will send money, what if the size does not fit?" made itself felt, not without it.
Why did you decide to take part in the Joint Purchase, and did not go and buy what you wanted in the store
- Because there was no time. At that time I was on maternity leave with Anka, and with her, little one, it was not particularly easy to go shopping with her. For me shopping should be a thrill: from the bottom of my heart, so as not to run and grab the first thing that fits in size, but calmly walk, try on, choose … Joint Shopping just gave me such an opportunity - to go shopping without leaving home. A big role in my participation in the joint venture in the "Country of Mothers" was played by the fact that I knew many orgs even before the formation of the joint venture with us - I knew well, some personally, which again turned out to be a plus - "at least I give money to my friends." Well, and the economic benefit, not without it.
With those with whom you were familiar in real life, it is understandable, but with those with whom you were familiar only on the site, it turns out that you were not at all afraid to give your hard-earned money to people with whom you only knew on the Internet? There was no fear of not being able to see in the mirror how a dress or skirt sits? Or did some kind of excitement come after the first purchase and it was already impossible to stop?
“Hmm… good question. Not that I was not at all afraid - I slowly poured into the ranks. I started small, so to speak.
Was there no fear? I still have such fear, where can I go without it? Joint Shopping is always a kind of "pig in a poke"
- Excitement … No, hardly excitement, I can stop and not slide down to an outspoken shopaholic. I can still. Let's just say that there are purchases that are verified, I am satisfied with the price-quality ratio, and in which I appear regularly.
Do you remember your first purchase in the joint venture? Have you ever had moments like this when you thought, "What a sweetheart, it brought me here?" Are there any favorite purchases, the name of which you see, and you cannot pass by, because "you need this just now"
- The first one in the "Land of Mothers" or in general? Although, to be honest, I don’t remember. I only remember that my first purchase was not in the "Land of Mothers". I still have such moments. Favorite purchases? There is, of course. Several favorite purchases have firmly settled in my "chosen one".
Can you tell our readers about them? Have all the purchases from your chosen one been successful, and what exactly do you prefer to buy in the joint venture? I know that Anyuta is growing up with you, do you also buy children's things in Joint Purchases or more and more for yourself?
- I can, why not? I love it very much
purchase of outerwear I have ordered a ski set from Polina's organ polza and now, just there, I'm looking forward to it. Jackets from this purchase only from me … 4? or already 5? Still, four - and the fifth will be ski. And I'm not sure I'll stop there.
From shopping "for myself" I love
purchase of Korean cosmetics at Nadezhda - Espe
rarely when I pass by. For Anyutka, my constant purchase from Zhanna (Nyuska76) is "Stock of socks", I really like the prices of socks and their quality. From Tatiana zakovirka I participate in the purchase of "Yulla" children's knitwear and "Ladetto" dresses.
Of the purchases I liked, I can recall Yulia - yuyunyik and her purchase of Bonn sneakers. Natasha - natalyro with the purchase of Lamide and Marieta down jackets with Daffodil outerwear, Tatyana - Cherry Jam and her incomparable Bashkir honey.
Oh … but do you remember everyone?
- It turns out that i
Joint Purchases you buy almost everything: shoes, clothes, and even groceries. This is wonderful. Larissa, how long do you have to wait for the ordered goods? Have you ever had a desire to become an organizer of a joint purchase?
At this stage of my "purchase" the question is: "How long do I have to wait for the ordered goods?" - this is no longer particularly important, since I already have a strategic reserve, so I can wait. Recently, orgy girls often arrange express purchases, where fast order picking is also very convenient. Well, and Korean cosmetics, for example, I will wait as long as necessary - I love it dearly.
Thoughts - to become an organizer of a joint purchase, I have, I confess. But as soon as I entered the order plate for the same socks, I saw the number of participants, the number of comments and notes to each order, the number of replacements for missing goods … then the thoughts of becoming an org immediately and very quickly left my head. I'll stay, perhaps, among the participants.
What advice would you give to newcomers in joint purchases or to those who have doubts whether to participate in joint purchases or not? Maybe there are some recommendations based on personal experience?
- I advise beginners to first read the reviews about the organizers and their purchases - perhaps then many questions will disappear by themselves. Now our joint venture system has already been worked out, there are a lot of reviews - you can always get information. Do not neglect it. And for those who doubt whether to take part in Joint Purchases or not, I will say this: my 6-year-old daughter Anya says: "If you don't try, you won't know." And I completely agree with her.
Lara, it's a pleasure to communicate with you. It is a pity that our interview is drawing to a close. Finally, tell us if you had any fun shopping experience?
- A fun experience … I don't know how fun it was, but I definitely laughed. It so happened that up to a certain age my daughter saw me exclusively in trousers-jeans-shorts. Well, it just happened. It was much more comfortable to run after Anka in jeans. And then I was drawn to romance, and my darling wanted dresses. And then just Julia yuyunyik with the "Silver Rook" - this, by the way, is another of my favorite purchases. I bought dresses there, received them, brought them home, and escorted Anka out of the room, pulling on the dress and thinking: "Oh, now she will say that I look like a princess …" She put it on, shouted: "Anh, come in !!!" - and froze in a beautiful pose, smiling with all her teeth. Anka flew in, looked at me, froze, her little eyes widened, slowly filled with tears, and she babbled sadly: "Mamiska … a hundred with you ???" Oooh … not such a reaction I expected. And the dress was perfect for me. The child then said that I was not like myself. Of course, from jeans, but in a beautiful dress. That's it!
Thank you, Larisa, for such an interesting and funny interview! Happy shopping in the future
- Thanks! I wish everyone the same!
