Hi all,

Does anyone know an online shop with a big and wide-spread assortment that isn’t just a marketplace with individual suppliers?

I haven’t bought expensive stuff from amazon for years but still used it occasionally to fill some gaps from my shopping list for small special items that I couldn’t find offline. You can easily get all of that in other online shops or marketplaces like eBay but you’d have to order everything separately: You’ll pay shipping multiple times and produce way more waste for packaging.

Sample shopping list:

  • Sweetening vanilla flavor drops (you typically get those in sport related shops where you also get protein powder)
  • Yellow or green shoe laces with 140cm length
  • Environment-friendly sunscreen stick with UV protection of 50

I know individual online shops where I can all of that but is there a shop where I might get this (or similar weird combinations of stuff) all in one box?

Kind regards, rbn

    The items above reside on my shopping list for ~2 months and I’ve been to EDEKA, Kaufland, Rewe, Globus, Decathlon, Hornbach, DM, Rossmann and Reno in the meantime. :-D I guess it also depends on the specific store, the season and some luck to get what you’re looking for. My local EDEKA e.g. did have these flavor drops in the past and DM typically sells sun sticks in summer. But if I couldn’t pick specific items after some time, I usually go online to get them out of my mind.

    Will check out bol.com, thank you! :)

      Bol no longer sells outside the Benelux. Dutch companies and banks and the Dutch government have become increasingly isolationist.

      Our Edeka sells flavour drops, by the way.
