Non-Instant Gratification

One disadvantage of web shopping is that the price for the often better prices is that it takes a while to arrive. I got spoiled in my early days with Amazon where even the "Super Saver Shipping" would arrive in three or so days because Amazon has a warehouse outside Reno. I made two orders on the web the weekend before last and am still waiting for the items to arrive. I am hoping at least the digital camera gets here tonight, in time for my trip.

Of course stores aren't always the answer; I went to Lush's San Francisco store last night hoping to pick up some "Ickle Baby Baff" bombs for the mothers of small energetic boys I am visiting and they were out.
