Simple solution that I seem to be using more and more. If you enter
"outdoor thermometer" in the search box at Amazon you get over 31,000 to
choose from. I think I placed 6 orders just this week for both gifts
and personal items not easily found elsewhere.

NOT a "simple solution" at all, when you only have dialup internet....
And I think I was clear when I said I dont care to shop online, because
I cant see or feel the items. I've shopped in REAL stores for over 60
years, and dont want or need to change now, to he hassles of online
shopping and dealing with the shipping and postage and hassled to return
stuff that is not what I wanted, or junk.

I've shopped in real stores for over 60 years too. Many have gone to
crap as you noted, thus my reason to go on line to do a lot of shopping.

As for returning things, Ive never had to. In my entire life I've only
ever had to return three or four items as I'm careful with my purchases.

There is no other solution for you, I'm afraid so you can keep
complaining and nothing will improve. It will, however, get worse.
