    Definitely true for the grocery store and local farmers’ markets, furniture, and clothing but am certainly fond of online shopping for lots of other things.

    I see lots of people pulling up to the lane to pick up their online grocery orders. Very popular option. Saltmarsh Gal, you must be (lucky you!) of a normal height. I almost never buy clothing in real stores, and am approaching panic on what to do for myself and my younger daughter for an upcoming family wedding.

    I find it interesting that the assumption is that remote shopping will only affect women: “because [they] like to get out of the house.”
