It all depends on the circumstances. I've used this option numerous times. Since all of the online stores I shop at collect sales tax (including Amazon), taxes are never a consideration.
This option comes in handy when minimum order amounts aren't met or when I want to get something before the sale ends. The latter option not only saves me an unnecessary trip to the store, it also guarantees that I get it at the sale price. Since I live in a large metro area, it's easy to get my order at a nearby store the next time I go shopping.
