4. Why is my Shopping Cart always empty?

Our website uses a common internet device called a "cookie" to identify each online shopper and keep items added to an order attached to the correct shopper. Cookies are simply text files saved to your computer's hard drive. (Do not worry, these text files cannot access other files on your computer or your hard drive). These text files contain all the necessary data to allow you to browse our website more quickly. Also, cookies save you from retyping your billing information every time you place a new order. Therefore, if your Shopping Cart is always empty, your browser may not be configured to accept these cookies. You can adjust your browser settings to accept cookies as follows (please consult your particular browser's help section for platform specific instructions):

Internet Explorer: Go to the Edit or View pull-down header in the toolbar and select "preferences" or "options". Choose the "Security" category. The window should show choices relating to cookie acceptance and warning. Make your selection and click "OK" to exit.

Netscape: Go to the Edit or Options pull-down header in the toolbar and select "preferences". Choose the "Advanced" category. The window should show choices relating to cookie acceptance and warning. Make your selection and click "OK" to exit.

If you are still having difficulty adding items to your online Shopping Cart, call any of our customer service representatives at 1-877-275-5522, they will be happy to assist you in placing your order.
