      Online shipping is a huge time-saver. Once you roam around the United States Post Office website (www.usps.com), you might never step foot in a post office branch again. You can order postage and supplies, look up zip codes, track packages and even schedule a free carrier pickup. Commercial carriers such as FedEx, DHL and UPS have time-saving online options as well.

      Next time you need a phone number or address, let your fingers do the walking. On your keyboard, that is! Websites such as Dexonline.com and AnyWho.com are quick and easy to use. And many offer links to business websites in search results, so you might not even need to pick up the phone to find information.

      If pizza or takeout just isn't what you are looking for, go grocery shopping from the comfort of your home. Many grocery stores offer online shopping and local delivery. Not only will this save you time, but likely money as well since you won't encounter those oh-so-tempting impulse buys!
