Alright, Newsviners, here's a few questions to think about during this bustling time of the year. First of all, should all stores go out of business and every product be sold online? This would mean that all malls, small businesses, flower shops, fast food restaurants, home appliance stores, supermarkets, boutiques, and other types of buying places would vanish off the face of the earth; and only exist as massive physical warehouses and as digital websites on the internet. Now moving to the next question: Would all stores going out of business spark a new surge for delivery companies, especially USPS, since more packages would need to be delivered from Point A to Point B? Finally, and on the other hand, would all stores going out of business and every product being sold online be an indication that the new world order is being implemented?

Good questions for this time of year. While I completed most of my gift shopping on line this year I paid one kamakazi trip to the local mall. There are many things that, at least for me, need to be checked out in person. Clothes, shoes, jewelery etc. I also enjoy the hustle and bustle of the mall.Call me old fashioned but nothing says Christmas like watching two well dressed middle-aged women fighting over a $5.00 scarf.

Have a Merry Christmas!

    Yes I think all stores should go out of business and everything be sold online, that way I could order my eggs and milk 5-7 days in advance/s

    I actually prefer Other for shopping options, which would be an the option of shopping using all of the above, instead of "any of the above being fine". Getting those emergency medicines from "any of the above would be fine" seems silly.
