Yep. I think so.

I can go and in a few minutes, be at a place where I can pick up an Arduino, or a Rasperry Pi kit, or a passive infrared sensor. That's pretty amazing. The prices are cheaper on Amazon, of course, but I have gone to WalMart and saved over $100 by loading up my Amazon shopping cart as I found items on the shelves.

We all spend way more money than we could if we mail ordered everything. Yet brick and mortar still exists and we still use them at least for some things.
