After the relative success of our Coles' delivery last week, we decided we needed to become more au fait with the new push towards on-line shopping. I was relatively comfortable with using eBay so there was no hardship involved in ordering new ink cartridges for my printer. Sadly Officeworks has lost a sale but maybe next time I could check their website.
Marilyn enjoys a glass of sparkling wine with her evening meal and she claims it has the double benefit of aiding her digestion and lifting her spirits so we check out the Dan Murphy's website and easily find what we are looking for. They seem un-fazed about delivering to the back-blocks of Dilston and their delivery charge is reasonable so the wine is on its way.
Feeling confident, we turn to something more challenging. When we were changing our doona over to the heavier one for winter, Marilyn happened to mention she would like a new doona cover when she was allowed back into Spotlight. It didn't take a minute to open the Spotlight web-site which is easy to navigate and has coloured pictures to illustrate the various designs. We chose a spectacular bedspread in a pattern of Australian native flowers and it even has a galah on it. That's also on its way.
To complete the ensemble, Marilyn needed two plain black cushions. Spotlight was disappointing so we tried Harris Scarfe, Myer and KMart without success but finally found what we were looking for at Target. A few clicks of the mouse and they're on their way to us from Sydney.
We had great delight in making the orders, will enjoy the anticipation in waiting for things to arrive and will take pleasure in opening the parcels. A triple bonus.
This could be the way of the future and that would be OK with me.
