TOWN OF CHENANGO (WBNG) -- Ginny's Unique Boutique was briefly back in business this Friday and Saturday, promoting social distancing shopping.
Store co-owner Shannon Reardon said the business could have been open the entire time during the coronavirus pandemic, but decided taking some time off would be better.
"We just chose not to because we wanted to do things right," Reardon said. "Clean the store really well, get it spaced out. We needed that time off to actually design the store."

Personal Shopping 2.0: Luxury Apps Deliver Virtual Service During Pandemic

Is Online Grocery Shopping Better for the Planet? | WIRED
But if Amazon consolidating control over yet another sector of the economy during a crisis makes you uncomfortable, Jeff Bezos would like to offer a reframe: Actually, buying your groceries online is better for the planet.
Not necessarily. Even though Amazon has yet to publicly release the study in question (we've asked), several experts Grist spoke with said that on average, ordering online often reduces the carbon footprint of grocery shopping.
