home shopping
Buy from sofa
Home shopping is buying goods through television programs or catalogs rather than visiting stores.
The term emerged with cable channels dedicated to selling products on air, where hosts demonstrate items and viewers call to order: She bought the necklace from a home shopping network.
The concept now extends to online retail, though that's more often called online shopping.
