I do virtually no online shopping except for an item or two a year. Friends of mine who buy virtually everything online, get Skip the dishes daily and are out all the time are prime examples.
Everything has become a throw away culture, cheap, fast, easy, return whatever, buy it in 3 different sizes and colours and return the rest.
So many things to me just seem so wasteful personally

Oh, that's all me. I drive around to 3 different stores looking for something, get frustrated when it is out of stock or not available, go home and order it from Amazon like I should have in the first place. Sometimes delivery is better for the environment.
