We have had 55 Amazon orders and about 30 Ebay orders in 2020. We have a weekly Tesco delivery for us and two sets of neighbours and I do a weekly click and collect at Waitrose.

We have had half a dozen click and collects from John lewis that I pick up with the Waitrose order same place.

The only shops we have been in since last February is the chemist to pick up prescription and 3 or 4 trips to the bank to pay in cheques from my neighbours for their groceries.

I probably will stay like this after the pandemic, I dont want to go shopping ever again.

Other than my food shop everything else has been bought online.
We have a delivery from Somewhere or another nearly every day!

I live in Ireland and at the moment on line shopping isn’t really an option since Brexit.

Even ordering from Irish website and sometimes goods still come from UK. Friend ordered laptop last week from curry’s.ie and it got held up in customs and a duty charge of €74 incurred. I have seen media reports these charges maybe an error but will hold off online shopping for a while

I’ve been online grocery shopping since Christmas and I buy all my clothes, household bits, diy products, furnishings online now and have mainly done so for the past 9 months. I did venture into our local town at the end of November for a Primark haul for Xmas gifts which I found stressful as it was busy and no one kept social distancing.

DH may drop in a supermarket for milk or veg if we run low between our deliveries but I’m happy with the service I’m getting from Tesco and the quality of the shopping they are delivering and I feel it’s safer this way

I just had a delivery from Wilkos today of some emulsion for our living room, lots of wild bird food and stationery that DD needed. It’s amazing the variety of things that can be delivered now

I saw the Espa ones and I was so tempted as it’s lovely stuff but I’ve vowed not to buy any skincare or cosmetics this year and I have cupboards, bags and boxes full

Been an online shopper for years, some of the stuff I can't get in shops (film photography and processing for example) but i've become obsessed with buying mandalorian stuff this week to cheer myself up

On top of that there is John Lewis, Screwfix, timber merchants etc etc
I’m on par with you Mr TM...
246 in 2020
13 in 2021, though 5 of those were cheap kindle books (99p) and 5 subscribe and save items...
Am yet again trying to cut back on my Amazon spending...

Checked my Amazon stats and have averaged 30 orders a year for the last 3 years. Amazon makes up about 90% of my online shopping, excluding Tesco deliveries.

Half of those are general supermarket items that I either can't get specific brands locally or are much cheaper online like cat litter, Flash mop refills, etc. And last year specifically, quite a few were WFH related as my company was reimbursing equipment rather than supplying it.

So I don't feel like I'm shopping online much. Just don't need anything!
