New Normal: Touchless Window Shopping

 




One of my favorite stationary stores in Portland - 11/11 - closed its physical location due to the pandemic. With such a reduction in foot traffic due to quarantine, loss of customers from the co-working spaces nearby, and the inability to host its many social events, this cute little store could not make it at its former location. 

I was sad when I heard they moved online, but felt a small sense of relief when I heard they returned in pandemic-proof physical form: a touch-less window store. 

Now in downtown Portland, you can see this pretty display of 11/11's best selling items. By scanning a barcode, you can pull up the item list on your phone and order them to be delivered to your house right there. I am so happy to see small businesses innovate during this difficult time, and I can't wait for their physical shop to return.

  3. There are many benefits to buying furniture online. You have more freedom to choose the furniture pieces you want without being pressured by a sales agent, you can compare prices, and you can buy from home. Buying bathroom furniture or dining room furniture then becomes easy. But there is one downside to buying the furniture pieces you want online. You cannot inspect them first. replacement windows
