Buying things online

Some items are not available on where I live. Sometimes when they're available, the items are a bit expensive. Usually I would travel a bit further to get them. However we can't cross the district these days due to travel restriction. And considering the current situation, I think it's best to comply. So I decided to order items that I couldn't get here from the online store. Mostly canned or dry food. No way I would buy fresh food or veggie. They would rot before they reach my house! Here I am, still adding and removing items in my cart while enjoying my second cup of coffee for the day.

*sigh* Open the door and come shopping here. I won't tell anyone and will help you carry your shopping back through the door... as long as you make sure the door doesn't close while I'm carrying your items. I don't want to get trapped on the wrong side.

Are you sure I would reach your house? I might took a wrong door and reach someone's else house instead. I don't mind going to @thelme55's though. She would bake me pretty and delicious cake

@prinzcy If you get to Thelma's house, bring me back some cake, too, please. The door should lead you right to my house, though. If it doesn't, then we'll know a woman can't follow road signs.

Sometimes online stores send the wrong item and make us no longer want to buy at that store.

@prinzcy I'm fine, it's just that my time at Mylot is very short because I still take care of other things.

That's why we should not get items that we want to use urgently from them. How are you? Haven't heard from you for a while.

It's not but I couldn't get everything in one store. It's quite frustrating.

Online purchase of goods has increased here considerably of recent. Lockdown condition also added to its popularity. People are now ordering even groceries online. I however prefer physical stores for the purchase of my clothes.

No, not shortage. Some food like seaweed or certain brand are not available here as it's not really popular among the locals. But we can get it in the bigger supermarket.

Yes! Though not really satisfying. I can't buy all in one store. So in the end, I would need to pay more for shipping fee.

I would usually buy cat food in bulk as the particular brand is not easy to get here. As for groceries I would get them from the supermarket.
