Categories
The purpose of the "Favorite Stores" category is to give a brief summary of the site. I will try to give information on type of products carried, shipping, returns, and any personal experience with it.
These stores are sorted in this category by type of products carried. If you need an alphabetical listing please refer to the "links" section of my Guru Resource Center.
