The only problem with this approach is that in most cases you do not have access to the coding files hence you can be held to ransom if prices go up or the servers slow down. If you have a cart with 500 items it will take a while to add and imagine if you had to do this gain on to another system. The best approach I think is to use your own hosting which you can get for $5 a month or so and use a third party shopping cart this way if the host gives you any drama like a price increase and so on you can move to another host without any problem simply by copying your database contents and files and reloading again on a new plan.

Hope this helps.
