Yep.

Kinda silly to spend $40 on gas, even to CO Springs, when I can order it
online for $20. I'm getting pretty good at this online ordering thing
and the competition for customers is getting fiercer. Many places do
not even charge for shipping. I try and buy local, preferring to pay
a bit more to support our small rural economy, but if it just can't be
found, here, the net is still growing in the retail sector. I've
ordered insoles, a doorknob, a baguette pan, and silk liner socks in the
last 2 wks, alone. Armchair shopping at its finest!
