I'm lazy. Exceptionally lazy. When living in San Francisco, I even bought my toothpaste on Amazon (you'd understand if you ever visited a Walgreens in the Haight or Tenderloin).
Then, I moved to Singapore -- the land of malls. People here love to shop. It's the national pastime. Therefore, e-commerce is nonexistent despite having the world's highest smartphone penetration (130%).
I've been forced against my will to buy toothpaste in an actual store.... wah wah.
But, today, I stumbled across http://www.zalora.sg/. Free shipping after $30 and free returns.
Move over Alan... this might just be might knight in shining armor.
