And now a commercial for on-line shopping...

Now, I'm not much of an on-line shopper, but lately stores are making it much more easy for people like me to make purchases on-line. Take my recent purchase from Old Navy Maternity for example. The jeans were too small and the top was too big. I could have gone to the Mall of America to exchange the items, but figured they wouldn't have had the best selection. I still could have returned them there but I was in need of more maternity jeans and sweaters and liked what I had selected online. I was able to package the items in their original packaging and drop them off at UPS free of cost. Too cool! I could have even called them to let them know that I was planning on exchanging the items and they would charge my credit card and send them to me right away only to reverse the charges when they received my package. I don't think all stores follow these practices and I think Old Navy has a more lax return policy on maternity items than others, but it's nice to know that they have taken the guess work out of on-line shopping.
