                           Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

                           the registration statement.

                  (2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability
                           under the Securities Act, each such post-effective
                           amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
                           statement relating to the securities offered therein,
                           and the offering of such securities at that time
                           shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering
                           thereof.

                  (3)      To remove from registration by means of a
                           post-effective amendment any of the securities being
                           registered which remain unsold at the termination of
                           the offering.

         (B)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
                  purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
                  each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to
                  Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
                  applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
                  report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
                  incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall
                  be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
                  securities offered therein, and the offering of such
                  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA
                  FIDE offering thereof.

         (C)      The  undersigned  registrant  hereby  undertakes to deliver or
                  cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to
                  whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual
                  report to security holders that is incorporated by reference
                  in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the
                  requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Exchange
                  Act; and, where interim financial information required to be
                  presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not set forth in
                  the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each
                  person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest
                  quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by
                  reference in the prospectus to provide such interim
                  financial information.

         (D)      Insofar as indemnification  for liabilities  arising under the
                  Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
                  controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
                  foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
                  advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
                  Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
                  expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
                  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
                  against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
                  registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
                  officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
                  successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
                  asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
                  connection with the securities being registered, the
                  registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
                  matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to
                  a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
                  such indemnification by it is against public policy as
                  expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
                  final adjudication of such issue.

         Re:      Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel for Streamline.com, Inc., a Delaware
corporation(the "Company"), in connection with the Company's Registration
Statement on Form S-8 proposed to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on or about September 15, 1999 (the "Registration Statement").

         The Registration Statement covers the registration of 3,000,000 shares
of common stock, $.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Shares"), which
are issuable by the Company pursuant to its 1993 Employee Option Plan, 1993
Director Option Plan and 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, each as amended (the
"Plans").

         We have reviewed the corporate proceedings of the Company with respect
to the authorization of the Plan and the issuance of the Shares thereunder. We
have also examined and relied upon originals or copies of such corporate
records, instruments, agreements or other documents of the Company, and
certificates of officers of the Company as to certain factual matters, as we
have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions hereinafter
expressed. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the conformity to the originals of all documents reviewed by us as
copies, the authenticity and completeness of all original documents reviewed by
us in original or copy form and the legal competence of each individual
executing any document.

         Subject to the limitations set forth below, we have made such
examination of law as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this
opinion. This opinion is limited solely to the Delaware General Corporation
Law as applied by courts located in Delaware.

         Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares, when issued and delivered upon the exercise of options pursuant to the
Plans and against the payment of the purchase price therefor, will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

         We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

                                    Very truly yours,

                                    /s/ Bingham Dana LLP

                                    BINGHAM DANA LLP

                       Consent of Independent Accountants


We hereby consent to the incorporation by reference in this registration
statement on Form S-8 of our report dated April 13, 1999 relating to the
financial statements which appear in Streamline.com, Inc.'s registration
statement on Form S-1 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998.
