Ah, window shopping! What a fun activity, isn’t it? Whether it is browsing through the storefronts of New York City or checking out the mom-and-pop shops in your local town, sometimes the mere fix of looking at items on display is all you need.
Did you know that window shopping has been around for a long time? It all started during the Industrial Revolution.
“The widespread availability of plate glass in the late 1800s allowed shop owners to build large windows spanning the full lengths of their shops for the display of merchandise. This is when the notion of window-shopping was born.” (Kunle Campbell, Big Commerce)
