The advantages are:  You can receive the item faster than you do when you purchase it online, so you can by the right size if it was clothing's or shoes, so you can try it your self to see if it works, so you can get the right product. The advantages of buying stuff online are: They are cheaper, you can be lazy, Available online but not in store, don't have to travel, You can buy items from overseas that aren't available in NZ.
