Saturday, 10 December 2005 - Online shopping

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for online shopping.

I prefer the quiet of a Saturday evening at home, far away from the mad rush of holiday shoppers and impatient drivers. I prefer to deal with a virtual shopping cart rather than a tired and sometimes rude salesperson who can't wait until his/her next break. Yes, I'm buying nearly all my gifts online this year. Give me Ebay and Amazon.com and Etsy and all the other e-stores that sell the things I want to buy at prices I am willing to pay. Plus, no sales tax and, many times, free shipping.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
