Far less overhead, they ship directly from a warehouse. Even when
paying for shipping it costs less than driving, and is far less a risk
of an accident unless one is prone to falling off their PC chair. I
like shopping on line because my time has value... driving all over
creation to find what I want stops me from shopping stores altogether.
I buy as much as possible on line. And on line it's much easier to
compare prices. Lat week I bought a new weather station on line and
saved about $20. La Crosse works great right out of the box:

Do NOT buy anything from Ambient Weather.
Within the next week I will be ordering an impact wrench and a set of
metric sockets... will make it far easier to remove the blades from my
mowers for sharpening.

I enjoy on line shopping, I haven't been to a maul in more than 20
years
