Go ask Alice.

It is a known fact that the longer you are in a store, the more money you will spend. It happens all the time, when you realize that you are out of catfood and run to the store only to drop $50.00 on other crap, and usually forget the catfood. At least that's what happens to me all too often. So when I heard about Alice.com, I had to see what was up.
The site is pretty straightforward, allowing you to order all of the mundane stuff that you use everyday, you know, razors, paper towels, toilet paper, coffee, catfood, etc. Nothing terribly exciting there, though there is a nice selection of boutique type products that you may or may not be able to find down at the local grocerteria. The site saves your product choices, allowing you to quickly order them again. Site design is clean and functional.
I signed up, ordered some stuff, and it was delivered (for free!) in about 2 days. It showed up in a blue and black Alice branded box. They even put the dryer sheets in a ziploc bag to separate them from the rest of the products. Coupons are automatically applied if they are available, which is a nice touch.
So if you are a budding agoraphobe, or even an accomplished recluse, you should go sign up at Alice, and never have to forget the catfood again.
