Online shopping's great, but how do you manage it if you don't have a house to have your stuff shipped to? I touched on this some months ago but since then we've used it a lot more so can offer some more insight.
We've used two systems mainly:
- Australia Post Parcel Collect or Parcel Lockers
- Click 'n' Collect (eBay)
