Tips for buying online:

• Try not to use obvious numbers like a birth date or phone number. Instead, choose a mixture of numbers and letters.
• Make sure the online merchant will make deliveries to the area you live in.
• If shopping for a gift, make sure there is time to spare to have the package arrive in time.
• Most internet stores charge a fee for shipping that changes with time - ie: if you are not in need of rush shipping, cost of shipping will generally be less.
• Check for cost for delivery and how long it will take to arrive to see if they fit with your time-line and budget.
• Always keep a record. Be sure to make a printout of your confirmation number and your purchase order to keep for your records.
• Be diligent about maintaining the privacy of your chosen passwords. Try to have some creativity when thinking of a password, and never share it with anyone.
• Bookmark the internet stores you buy from. If you wish to make future purchases or need to contact the company, you can easily access the web site again.
