Online shopping makes it easy and convenient to search for — and buy — the must-have items on your wish list. 

Here’s a quick cheat sheet:

• To make sure you’re getting the best deal, compare products. Do research online, check product comparison sites, and read online reviews.

• Confirm that the seller is legit. Look for reviews about their reputation and customer service, and be sure you can contact the seller if you have a dispute.

• Pay by credit card to ensure added protections, and never mail cash or wire money to online sellers.

• Keep records of online transactions until you get the goods.
