Over the last two years, online shopping has skyrocketed. But online purchases come with possible disadvantages of not getting what you thought you had ordered. Many consumers wish they had better product comparisons and information before purchasing.
CKPL has a tool that could help save you not just money but frustration. Consumer Reports, an independent, non-profit organization, has been working with North American consumers since 1936 to provide “reviews and comparisons of consumer products and services based on reports and results from its in-house testing laboratory and survey research centre.” Consumer Reports is recognized as a trusted source of useful and objective information on a huge variety of consumer products and services, making this resource essential in evaluating products before ordering online or venturing out to a store.
