“Let me see here, I live in rural area, should I drive 160 miles to the nearest big box store to buy a $40 item or order it online and have it delivered to my front porch? Decisions, Decisions.”
Let me see here, I live in suburban area, should I drive 2.4 miles to the nearest big box store to buy a $40 item or order it online and have it delivered to my front porch? Decisions, Decisions. (...and I suspect my decision is no different from yours)
But what are you buying? a 3" X 3" screen shot? At a store you can see what you're getting. ... and I'll drive 2.4 miles for next to no reason! You know what, my last fill-up was in Gardner IL on my way back home from the eclipse, a week ago yesterday, about fifty miles from home. I've still got three bars.
You can drive the 2.4 miles and get it today, when you’re ready. Or you can wait two days for Prime shipping. Right now we have a choice.
What I find most often is not related to how far you drive but that you can drive all over town and not find what you want but it IS on Amazon. Their inventory is just humongous.
