There’s no doubt that most of us have little time for shopping. I had to admit to my daughter just last weekend that I no longer like to shop. “Why,” she asked, “because you feel like you should be doing something else?” Smart girl! No, the truth is that shopping takes time. There is so much out there that the research alone to find the right product or best price is overwhelming. Leave it to Consumer Reports to come up with a new, advertisement-free magazine that aims to cut through the shopping maze and direct us to the best choices—SmartShop. These guys are covering everything from vacation packages to moisturizer. Now that’s helpful. Just to entice a shopper like me, the cover story is all about best green products. Check it out. It looks pretty handy.
