Amazon
Amazon has sites all over the world so no matter where you are you should be able to find an Amazon website for your country. Please remember that you can not order off Amazons from other countries and expect them to ship to your country. (Example if you are in Canada, you should shop at Amazon.ca because if you are shopping at Amazon.com you'll need to have an address in the U.S.A to ship your items to.)
When you buy on Amazon you need to pay attention to who is selling the item and who is fulfilling the shipping. Anyone can sell on Amazon so this means some items are not coming directly from them. This also means that whoever you are buying items from could be from anywhere in the world. This also means that shipping could take up to a month.
Now for the pros of Amazon. A wonderful option on Amazon is the Wish List. We encourage everyone to make a Wish List and visit it on a somewhat regular base. For one thing, the Wish List keeps everything organized for you. You don't have to worry about saving the link to an item you want and you don't have to worry about losing it or forgetting about it. You can also share your Wish List with people and that can make things easier when it comes to the holidays, to a wedding registry or a baby registry.
Another great thing about the Wish List is it tracks the price changes for you. This is one of the reasons you may want to check back frequently. There is also an option in your List that will show you the items that have had a price change and by how much. This is a great way to save money.
