    The problem with Amazon is they will list and deliver any product under the sun, the organisation as a whole should have been forced to split by the Competition and Markets Authority years ago, but it wasn’t and now they basically have a monopoly on online sales. So it depends on what you’re after. Groceries? Try a supermarket like Tesco. Books? Try Waterstones. Electronics? Currys (awful though). Weird cables and adapters? Maplins still have a website.

      Also, while it will require you to leave the house, chances are you have a local hardware shop nearby which sells all the random objects you can’t find anywhere else.
