go to the IRL hardware / grocery store? I still get out of my chair to go the Costco, Ace hardware, Microcenter and REI's of the world. But short of that target, walmart, home depot have really stepped up their (fast/free) shipping game in the past few years.
- jMyles 2y agoYeah, I do nearly all of my grocery shopping IRL, and about 75% of hardware shopping (at Rollin' Oats and Ace Hardware, respectively, here in St. Pete). Last few things I bought on Amazon, that I'm not sure where I'll get, at least with reasonably fast shipping: * Case for a 32" monitor * Pegboard-mounted magentic knife rack * Outdoor folding table * USB and HDMI cables (I guess Newegg?) * Spice grinder (a particular one) * Bulk organic coriander seeds (actually they might have these at Rollin' Oats - but what about other bulk dry goods that aren't at small grocers?) * Shower head etc etc And yeah, I guess at this very moment, walmart is perhaps a more ethical option.
- jarsin 2y agoI do most of electronic shopping at bestbuy now. Typically can pickup same day or next day shipping.
- jarsin 2y agoDon't forget cloud alternatives like Digital Ocean.
