Retail stores have been going downhill since the rise of online shopping. 

People have become more comfortable with the idea of buying anything that they want at the click of a button. This has helped close hundreds of stores across the country. Some stores have managed to overcome the change, but not all.

Some stores like Best Buy offer in-store pick up from there online ordering. This brings customers in the door to have the possibility of buying more products. Some of the most recent companies that have claimed bankruptcy are Toys R Us and Rue21.

Moving towards all online stores will come with a disadvantage. You will not be able to get your products the same day or be able to see what they actually look like in real life. These are the main reasons retail stores still exist. In order for retail stores to stay around, shopping more in person instead of online will help. After all, shopping is the best therapy.
