ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Non-store retailing

Non-store retailing means that we can buy things without going to a physical store. It’s like shopping online or using a catalog, where we can see pictures of things we want to buy and can order them through the computer or by phone.

This way of shopping is like playing an online game, where we can choose what we want to buy and "add it to cart." Then, we can pay for the items using a bank card or an online payment service. Later, the things we bought are delivered right to our home.

Isn't that cool that we can buy things without going to a store, waiting in long lines or finding parking spots? It's like a magic trick, but guess what? This magic is happening every day online!
