Online Shopping
Everyone is talking about online shopping. It's easy and it takes a lot less time than a trip to the mall, or maybe not. It is surely convenient for shut-ins though, and online shopping provides big city shopping opportunities for those who for whatever reason, whether location, physical limitations, or busy work schedules, cannot get out and physically go shopping. In some ways, online shopping is a throwback to the good old days. It is not just long distance gift deliveries, although that is certainly convenient, you can have your groceries and your meds both delivered. Throw in a special occasion gourmet meal, just the right outfit for your business trip, and just the right vacation for your budget, with all the amenities to boot, and suddenly you realize that online shopping can make life just a little more manageable and a whole lot more fun. It is much more timely than a catalog and a whole lot more exciting. Whether on a long term basis, or because of a short term set-back like a sprained ankle, sometimes online shopping and delivery services can make the difference in being dependent on the kindness of others and taking care of things one's own self. So where do you start? How do you find all those great online stores you keep hearing about? Here are a few good ones to get you started. Check back often, there is more to come.
