I hate online shopping, and yet in 2023 I’ve done at least 85% of my non-grocery shopping online.

I don’t shop online to get a lower price (I don’t even know if the Amazon prices are any lower).
I don’t shop online for convenience (I would much rather buy something in person at a retail store than online).

I shop online because I got sick of pissing away hours of my valuable time going to four or five different stores in a fruitless search for what I needed.

As far as I’m concerned, limited in-store inventories have done more to destroy traditional retail stores than anything else Amazon offers.

limited in-store inventories

Never came across that problem and it’s no extra time for me go to stores you find things that you don’t see on line.

Nothing has destroyed businesses like Amazon has that will never return smaller cities and towns have many empty stores even in many larger cities major malls are spider homes.
