Default How many of you are content to shop online?

This may be a spinoff of the "mall" thread.......

How many of you are quite content to shop online and have FEDEX or UPS deliver your stuff????

This has been a trend up here for a very long time..........especially for those of us who are not fans of the big box stores.....

Online shopping is extremely popular among our peers ...........

For those of you who miss Macy's, and or Bloomingdale's, etc. they have great websites.....ditto for L.L. Bean and other sporty type garments.....they are all online.

Actually, once we were having some plumbing work done and our plumber brought over his friend, another plumber who happened to be from Ohio.

He had driven his wife to visit her Dad in Vermont........and the next day he drove his wife to Freeport Maine and back again to Vermont.......just so that they could shop at L.L. Bean........a store he loved. It's a huge store in Freeport and a lot of fun to browse............not a mall.

We always enjoy stopping in Freeport when we are passing through..........however, we do shop at L.L. BEAN online.
FedEx delivers in two days.....

Amazon.com , ditto, has lots of "stuff".......and is handy to use.

So, no need to drive to Orlando to shop..........all of the major stores are ONLINE.
