Hypothetical Online shopping

Anne Frank, born in Frankfurt, Germany in June1929, migrated to Amsterdam, Netherlands with her family, owing to the Jews’ persecution by the Nazis in Germany. There, she wrote her famous autobiographical diary, during World War 2, from June, 1942 to August 1945. Holland came under German occupation in May, 1940 and the puppet government, too, began harassing the Jews. The Franks went into hiding in July, 1942, after Anne’s sister Margot got a call up letter from the SS, to avoid arrest and execution. Anne Frank wrote a lion’s share of her diary in the hideout, until the family was arrested in August, 1945. She died of Typhus Fever in a concentration camp in Bergen- Belsen in Germany, barely three months before her sixteenth birthday and a month before the concentration camp was liberated by the allied forces
Besides living under a constant fear of being arrested and put to an ignominious death by the Nazis or by the bombs of the allied air attacks during their three year long hiding, the Franks had to endure innumerable, more mundane difficulties. Anne was a stoic. Behind her insolent and sullen exterior hid a precocious and profoundly creative personality, as evinced by her writings.
They could not move out; their only contact with the outside world was the three staffers of her father- Victor Kugler, Johannes Kleiman and a lady, Elizabeth Voskuijl. These three managed their ration, food and provisions, clothes, books and other necessities of daily living. However, all three were often sick and even when they managed to shop for the Franks, the size of the under garments, the quality of food and provisions and the kind of books were not to the satisfaction of the Franks. Anne, especially, was very fussy. Worse still, even these contacts ran the risk of being found out. Shopping outdoors by these contacts was becoming increasingly risky and impracticable.
Sample a list of articles that had to be shopped, and very often:
Clothes: Cotton undershirts and underpants, summer and winter robes, shoes, kitchen aprons, handkerchiefs, socks, stockings, scarves and caps etc.
Food: cans of fish, cans of milk, oil, butter, powdered milk, jars of strawberries, 25 kg. of rice, canned meat etc.
Magazines, novels and news papers
Coal, fire wood and candles

Wary of the risks and difficulties involved in shopping through intermediaries and unable to move out of the hideout for obvious reasons, Anne Frank decided to shop online. However, she preferred a site, which could provide a single platform to cater to all their different requirements; using too many sites would run the danger of being done in. it was easy enough; she found www.baggout.com - a one stop shopping solution to their motley needs. She ordered the list using the aegis of M/s. www.baggout.com. It was delivered at their door step, satisfaction guaranteed. Anne Frank heaved a sigh of relief; she could now leave the supplies to www.baggout.com and concentrate on writing her diary, which eventually won her laurels.
