Online shopping brought on by stupid business doings such as wokeness and canceling.
Mike Lindell gets my patronage exclusively by internet now to the extent that I even give his Christmas gift cards to all my liberal dimocrat relatives.
A win win for my pillow if used or not.
I say screw them and there ways they bring it on themselves.

They just steal it from porches now.

And from rail cars in californiocau

Egg Nog is the solution, year round and free, those with poor self control will soon be too fat to steal.

Humans have allowed government to price them out of the market.

Shame on us.

[Maybe the bug rations will be on auto-delivery.]

Bugs - it's what the WEF (World Economic Forum) says every one else can eat for dinner - while THEY, the Globalist Elites, dine on lobster, steak, etc.

[When Bed Bath & Beyond filed for bankruptcy in April, it led to the closure of 866 stores]

BBB is trying online-only now. I doubt that it will work very well.

I used to like to occasionally shop at Bed, Bath and BeGone, but when they threw out Mike Lindell’s MyPillow I found it easy to not walk in there. Same for the Wokeness of Chik-fil-A - I haven’t set foot in their restaurants for almost 4 years now.

I’ll eat Popeye’s chicken and shoot, even the McDonald’s chicken sandwich long before I go to Chik-fil-A. Oh they have a good sandwich that I like but it’s pricey. That doesn’t help either. I’m not paying high prices ESPECIALLY to the Woke.

Some of this could be due to abuse of the covid measures now being looked into by the feds. Some stores and restaurants in my area packed up and went bye-bye as soon as that investigation started.

“Amazon says my first order was “Island of the Blue Dolphins” by Scott O’Dell on June 27, 2000. I’m surprised I waited until Amazon was six years old to place my first order”

Not many people had a home PC in 1994. That was probably part of the issue.

My wife worked at Apple in those years, so we always had computers at home.

Too much of the ‘quality’ at Amazon is flea market crap... that’s the price we’re paying for losing our stores.

Agreed. And much of that junk is pushed (paid?) to the top of the search results.
