I hope I’m not too late!
Technological improvements allow me to have greater access to goods around the world. I can buy instantly and communicate instantly with producers. It allows us to be able to purchase something faster or maybe even cheaper. Instead of having to go out and buy something. But it also gives you more options then what you would have in a store. It makes it to where if you don't have time to go to the store, you can just pull out your phone and hit a button. Epically, if you have an amazon. You just half to search what you want, and when you find it, add it to chart or buy it with one click.
