But on TV reclames it’s popular because of the shoes.
20. beslist.nl shows also a big variety.
This site is famous because they don’t sell these

but they search where the product is the
cheapest. With every product on the site,
there is a link to the site where you can buy it.
21. AH.nl is a web shop where you can buy food!
It’s very special.
There are many Albert Heijn supermarkets,

you can pick it up on a pick-up point
of the Albert Heijn

Many people think it’s convenient
because it doesn’t take as much
time as physical shopping!!
