The Office Supply Store Charges For Delivery
The office supplies that I got from the online office supply store were much cheaper than what I usually get from the local guys. I had heard from a colleague of mine that many companies were switching to online office supply store sites to save money, so I looked into it last week. I took the prices that we usually pay and compared them to the ones on the site for the same exact office supplies and saved forty percent.
The savings was not the only thing about the office supply store site; they delivered right to our door and did not charge any delivery fees since the order was over one hundred dollars. I used to have to send my secretary out to go and pick everything up in the company van and if she was too busy to do it then the local supply store could deliver it for an extra fifty dollars. The local office supply store was literally two miles away and they wanted fifty dollars to bring it to us. They should completely understand why a lot of the businesses in town are turning to the online places; it is not just for the great prices, but for free delivery too.
