This is great information and very timely given our economic challenges. I suggest mentioning my favorite aspect of online shopping, that of safety. As economic times become more challenging, crimes of opportunity will become commonplace particularly during the holidays. As a disabled person, I have learned to shop online for most things, go to the grocery in the morning to have a vacant parking lot, avoid ATM machines except inside the grocery, observe everything and everyone near the handicapped parking and use a debit card avoiding cash at all costs. Many of these tips could aid the non-handicapped also since everyone wishes to have a safe joyous holiday.
