Comparing: Shops Nowadays Vs The Past

Question 1

Are shops nowadays the same as shops when you were younger

Answer 1

Well obviously there are a number of clear differences. However, I guess that the most significant would be that +(shops have gotten bigger and fancier. The presentation has become more beautiful and you have a lot more choice.)+ Whereas in contrast + (There were fewer shops and items to choose in the past) +.

In addition to this, another possible distinction might be that +we also can buy things online nowadays which is so much more convenient+
