online shopping

klabm · 08-01-2001, 09:00 AM

I have gotten used to ordering incontinence supplies off of the internet. It saved the embarrassment of my husband pushing a shopping cart full of Depends around. However I have found that the sites I used to order from are no longer stocking what I need. Wal-Mart has completely stopped carrying incontinence products online. Other sites that I have used have gone out of business. I am having a difficult time getting wheelchair parts too. Has anyone else noticed this trend and can you recommend a comprehensive, reasonably prices, easy to navigate site? Am I asking too much?

They have a lot of stuff a little cheaper than other sites.

Have you ever tried sportaid.com? They look like they have a wide variety of products for sale online.

SportAid rocks! I got a Roho cushion shipped overnight for $100 less than a local medical supply stor was going to charge me, and it would have taken a week. That reminds me, I need to buy a spare cushion...

If it's not in their catalog, call and ask. They carry almost everything for daily needs.

You can also call around to local pharmacies, they often deliver for free and they take coupons. :-)

one of the guys here in town found an online supply place and he asked me to post it in the forums.

it's www.amed.com and he said they bill insurance, medicare or medicaid. he also said that they have both a regular and on-line catalog and samples are available for certain items. he has been using them and really likes their service.

Life is a lesson you learn when you're through.

I've ordered from both www.sportaid.com and www.spinlife.com. Both are good, but spinlife was faster and customer service was excellent.
