I get asked a lot about shopping carts – no surprise there. One thing I get asked time to time, which I’ve never had a great answer for, is what happens if you have a shop selling just a few items. A normal shopping cart is no good for someone with 5 items, it’s over kill. Lots of people are in that position – wanting to sell a few books, a few CDs, a few home made crafts, whatever.
I did see an interesting solution today. I don’t know if it’s perfect, but it’s a good start. It’s a WordPress template that has a built in shopping cart – look for the “eStore” template on that site. So no promises but if you need a solution like that, worth considering, especially for $39.
