Without refrigerators, Victorians couldn't keep very much food in
the house, so did they go shopping every day? Actually, they did.
Luckily, butchers, bakers and green grocers were plentiful on the
average suburban block, and many brought their wares right to their
customers' front doors. That covers food, but how did they shop
for clothes, appliances and furniture in an age when only the upper
class owned automobiles? Mail-order companies, the shopping malls
of 1900, could deliver nearly every item required in the home.
