You can buy food, cloth, shoes, tools, sporting good stuff, farm stuff and I think you can even buy some naughty stuff too. Well may be not. General stores didn't have naughty stuff.
Lol.. the more things change the more they stay the same. Amazon is the new Sears and Roebucks catalogue. Farm families used to be able to order everything from seed to clothes to cars - but then again, you can't use Amazon as tp if you run out…
