Aeropostale

If anybody is like me, they love to shop. Many companies make it so easy to purchase their products not just in the store but online as well. Aeropostale is truly a customer focused organization (CH 1, Pg 7). I have learned to make my dollar really stretch when it comes to shopping by discovering online deals that are never in-store. Two months ago was the last time that I purchased clothing through them when they had these spectacular sales. When Aeropostale decided to become a member of the E-commerce (Ch 1, Pg 23) community by making their products available for purchase online, they went in a good direction by expanding their products and clientele base in other countries or cities where Aeropostale stores may not exists.

I always tend to purchase for the next season ahead in their clearance department before they roll out the new season trends. I really adore their polo shirts and you could buy each one with the coupon for six bucks. What a deal! Due to the shirts shrinking upon drying them, I always buy a size up from my normal size.
