Hello everyone, I'm a content writer for Expat Magazine. We are working on an article exploring the experiences of expats with online shopping as compared to in-person shopping. We would love to hear about your shopping experiences to include as testimonials in the piece. Which type of shopping have you found most practical or interesting in your location? Thank you in advance for sharing with us.

I try to buy local as much as possible but I live in a small town in Mexico and I don't have a car so unless I have a ride into the larger city centre (about 40 minutes from where I live), I end up shopping online. I run a business here and many things that I need are simply not available anywhere but online. I try to buy from Mexican companies when I can and I use a central delivery service so I support that business A LOT! I've mostly had good experiences with online shopping here in Mexico.
