For me, the shipping costs make it actually more expensive to shop online (when it’s “free” they are just pre-mixed into the price of the goods), but no way I’m hauling that stuff I usually order home by myself.
For me it’s usually either because I’m feeling lazy or because it’s something very specialised that’s hard to source locally
For example I wanted a new cycling helmet, and the only satisfactory helmet I found in local shop was ~200eur. I could have ordered online instead and found something in sale for maybe 100eur instead, if I just waited for a week for delivery
Guess you don’t enjoy online shopping. (I do. Especially for heavy stuff idk how to get home and ordering food.)
I do, but I also see how it affects local smaller shops, so I’ve started to reduce it despite often costing me more
