Inmates do not have access to the Internet. There are however a few services that specialize in sending commissary packages to inmates - loved ones on the "outside" can order online and these nice baskets are delivered to your inmate.
Inmates normally order their commissary "inside" once a week and if there are no package services available that would be the only way for them to shop for things not provided by the institution.
