At some point the storefront goes out of business and we're all shopping blind and getting low-quality stuff that we would never buy if we could see it.

Maybe online reviews would gird against this, or maybe we'll get some sort of 3-D holographic technology to check stuff out. I don't have a loyalty to brick and mortar businesses if they don't add value, but the tough thing right now is that they add value and don't get paid for it.
I can't help it. When I can save 20 percent and it shows up on my doorstep the next day, I'm taking it. But for every one of me there are 20 buying it from the store so it should balance out.
I hope.
