What websites do you use as an alternative to Amazon?

I've been trying to avoid shopping on Amazon for several years. For computer parts, I look at Newegg. For pet stuff, Chewy.

But what about all the miscellaneous stuff? What other websites do you trust when it comes to shopping online?

I'm not an Amazon fan either. But you may want to know that Newegg is owned by a Chinese company these days.

I have heard this and mostly avoid shopping there as a result. Is there a "new" NewEgg that's like old NewEgg?

Closest thing would be MicroCenter. I believe they will ship, but their store locations are rare and spaced out. Closest one to me is almost an hour and a half away, but since the Fry's 10 minutes away closed it's my only other option besides BestBuy (barf).
