I know I have probably posted about this before, but it is worth mentioning again. I love technology. The only thing that I can't seem to do from the Internet, which is preventing me from becoming a complete recluse, is grocery shopping. But they have it in certain areas, and it will soon be widespread hahahaha.
I can shop for just about everything else that I need online. I have ordered cheese from Wisconsin and had it delivered here in a refridgerated package in excellent condition. Matt and I don't like the crappy California cheese they have out here. I no longer have to send bills out late because I forgot yet again to get stamps. I use special software from the post office, buy postage, and print it onto special labels provided by them. I do all of my banking online, including making my student loan payments, credit card payments, and cell phone payments. I can make changes to my cell phone plan on the fly, and can also view how many minutes I have left for the month. I won't even consider a bank if it doesn't offer online banking. I can buy movie tickets online and pick them up right at the movie window, which means I rarely have to stand in line. I did ALL of my Christmas shopping online this year. Don't forget the fact that I am attending college online, either.
If you haven't jumped on the Internet bandwagon or are still one of those people that believe that it's just a phase, think again. More and more companies are wising up and offering free shipping if you order online. This has made my life much easier and enjoyable!!
