:cat: I really prefer at the stores, but since moving to the country where stores are scarce :-, I'm finding that internet shopping is the most convenient. But I will never give up on the stores - I will make a special trip for things I really want to look at before buying! :thumbsup:
-
I love to browse at stores, and look for good deals...
but mostly I like to order things online. I feel like I can usually find a better deal.
-
It depends...sometimes you get better deals at stores, and you don't have to pay for shipping...
HOWEVER, I like online shopping because it's more convenient, and less time consuming, plus...I don't
get distracted by other items in the store...
-
I agree. It depends. If I know exactly what I want, I prefer shopping online. Otherwise, I prefer going to the store.
-
I will shop any way. I love to shop. My favorite though is probably at the store because I can see things up close to know what I am really getting.
-
I prefer to go to the stores, it gets me out of the house, but I have shopped on line. It just doesn't seem to be as fun.
-
I prefer stores, but sometimes I order online.
-
I usually shop online and in stores. :)
-
at stores
-
It depends on what I am looking for. But mostly I do my shopping online. I have found that I can find better deals online than in some of the stores.
-
I preferr all of the above, but if I just had to pick just one shopping methed I guess it would be in store shopping because you can view the items up close and persional before you buy. :D
-
I perfer to go the store to pay for anything :bunny:
-
It depends on what im looking for materialistic wise. Food always bought at the store. But sometimes websites offer valuable savings if bought online VS a store.
-
i like stores cuz i can already try on the stuff i buy.

Depends on what I'm buying.
Food is always in the local grocery stores. Prefer selecting my own items, particularly fresh produce. I'm also a comparison shopper and look for sales items and often end up with the store brand.
Clothing - will do all 3, but I prefer the local store to see the selection and try it on. Also easier to return when I'm buying for someone else.
Electronics -- have had good luck getting replacement TV remotes online; have used Amazon for some items - fast delivery and easy return policy. Will use online to get a handle on what available and pricing.
Big ticket items: will use online for information and pricing and then eithor buy in a local store or online depending on how things turn out. If I think there might be a need to return the item or complain, I'll go with the local store.
I've purchased several items online that had to be returned. The return policy of many online stores can be onerous and many have a restocking fee (15% is average) so I check out the return policies before I buy anything. (There are also many scam sales programs where returning stuff for credit is impossible because you can't get thru to their 800 number. Buyer beware!)

I like stores the best but the things I want typically can't be found in stores anywhere in my state. : The only two places in the US where they sell my favorite clothing are New York City (only one little shop there) and San Francisco.

Whichever way is cheaper...

Whichever way is cheaper...
This is true!!! :thumbsup:
-
I prefer doing my shopping online, I like it because you can search around the internet for the best deals and prices
-
Positively in store, this way the girls and I always have lunch together, just gives us some extra quality time!
-
:thumbsup: I LOVE to get dressed up, and take my service dog out to the MALLS on my electric scooter.. That is a good time !!!
-
I really prefer stores....I like shopping online but for certain items like clothes I would rather see it in person.
-
I've shopped all three acording to what I'm buying and where I can get it the cheapest .Food is always in stores or catalog at holiday time.
-
I prefer shopping in one store with gift cards that I can get free.
-
Online. If I have to go to a big store, it's K-Mart because they hardly ever have any customers. I despise Wal-Mart.
-
In stores hands down. I don't have to pay to return things.
-
For most things I go to the stores. But for certain things I usually get coupon codes and it saves more money to get it online.
-
I prefer to shop at stores so I can see the product in person.
-
I order a LOT of stuff online. I use sites where I get points or cash back on my purchases, then I hunt out coupon codes for the sites so I get a discount, too. It usually works out pretty well for me :)
-
I tend to do more online shopping, it's just very convienent. However I do still love to shop in the stores as well
-
I prefer shopping at the stores, especially for clothing. I do better when I can try the clothes on AND I like to have one or more of my daughter's with me. I call them my "Fashion Police" as they help me decide what looks good on me.
I have begun doing online shopping at my other free site because it pays me a rebate when I shop online from my own site. All of the wedding gifts we have purchased have paid me a rebate!
-
i prefer to shop in the store because in the store i can try things on and know how i like them or not online i dont know if they fit or not or what they actually look like..
-
Depends on what i'm shopping for. Clothes I'd rather try them on in the store, unless i'm familiar with the brand then ill buy it online. Now that I think about it the only things i buy online are brands that i know.
-
I do a combination.
When it comes down to groceries the obvious shopping in stores applies.
When it comes down to kids clothes I do a combination of online shopping and in store.
Since I live in a border City to Mexico and there are only small towns without many stores in them I have to " fight" to find or buy items haha.
I usually never get the sales since most everything is sold out within an hour, but sometimes I am lucky.
As for my clothes I shop online I have two stores I love and ebay I know my messurments and use promo codes coupon codes you name it.
It's so much easier to get what I want and at the convenience of clicking and ordering.
Mail order I havn't really done much, but I do sometimes with Jcpenny catalogs.
-
online! ebay most of the time. video games and etc from glyde.com
-
Stores... When I order online such as clothes, sometimes they're too small or too big hehe
-
I like shopping in the store to see what I'm really getting for my money.
-
I like on line shopping
