Online Shopping - the Backlash Begins

[BrilloPad]

Is it possible to actually "live" in Guildford. Exist, sure, but "live"?

I always hated existing in places like that.

Problems with couriers, faulty goods having to be returned, dealing with unhelpful call centre staff - this is the catalogue of woes that has got me heading back to the high street.

If I resorted to that, my purchases would be limited to bookies, charity shops and coffee shops.


Oh, and Greggs, of course.

I can not honestly remember the last time I bought something in a shop. Outside of the can of Coke Zero and Mars bar cycling 'home' last night.

Every single electrical item, toy, book, map, anything has been bought online.

That's just quite shocked me actually.

I remember now, we were in Glastonbury and went into a hippy shop as my eldest wanted soem incense sticks. 5 weeks ago...

I dont know about buying stuff online, but this home delivery from supermarkets seems to be a cracking service.
The missus must save hours a week and I thinkl she enjoys browing on line as well
