Adding a shopping cart to a blog
-
Is it possible to add a shopping cart or order form to a WordPress Blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That’s not possible here at WordPress.com.
Our free hosted WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for eCommerce transactions. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/There is no upgrade you can purchase that changes anything at all stated here http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ FTP access, plugins and third party themes are available only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.
WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate. if you require plugins, a shopping cart, etc. then you must hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. http://wordpress.org/ Then you can move your content from the free hosted WordPress.com blog into the WordPress.org install. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/
Provided you are referring only to products you personally create or any service you personally provide you can post a PayPal button and/or use a contact form on your blog.

Note set a shopping cart up somewhere else online you can create a custom menu and place a custom link to it in the custom menu.
Create a custom menu on your free hosted WordPress.com blog.

Add the custom link for your website to it.
