My shopping experience today 9/11/24

Hello everyone, trust you all are doing great. So today i want to share my lovely experience on shopping using hbd.

Today makes it exactly one week that i joined this platform, and honestly, I'm glad i took this step. So my first shopping experience wasn't friendly at all because of network issues that we faced last week. My second experience was a bit better because the store was already listed, so we didn't have to go through the stress all over again.

For today's shopping, we've made plans prior to today to avoid unnecessary delays and to have a better shopping experience. I informed my sister and some friends to come experience how we conduct transactions using hive.

A time was set for the shopping but some of them couldn't meet up due to one problem or the other. I was determined to do my shopping anyways so i didn't let that distract me from my original plans to shop today.
Thank goodness! My sister later called that she was available to also participate in the shopping, i gave her directions on how to locate where we were gathered for the meeting. She later called for more direction, i explained better and thankfully, she located us.

We went straight to the business of the day and @beauty197 helped her get started. She explained to her what HIVE is all about, helped her with registration and how to shop using HBD. My sister was really happy that she participated in this spend hbd workshop.

After the registration, we proceeded to our listed shopping center which is bokku-mart. We got different items of choice from beverages to toiletries, and drinks. We waited there for other shoppers who wanted to shop, so we can shop together because shopping with friends is actually interesting, you get to chat and laugh while you pick stuff together.

After picking our items of choice from the counter, we proceeded to the payment section. All items were calculated and payments were made using HBD.
My sister was in awe when she saw how swiftly the transaction was concluded. It's so fast and easy without network disruptions. I was so happy that the network was favourable today, making shopping experience interesting and transactions swift.

The only little issue i noticed during the transaction was the fact that pictures taken during payment didn't upload, we tried over and over again but it was same. The pictures wouldn't upload, i understand it's a network issue and guess what! The network didn't stop us from claiming our rewards from purchase of the items. That's actually the most interesting part of it- spending and earning at the same time, it's so much fun.
We took pictures and made memorable videos at the shopping mart, "we will definitely do this again", we said to ourselves.
We all had fun today shopping together and paying with hbd. Thank you all for this wonderful opportunity. It was a rewarding day for me and for my sister.
