Title: DO you shop online?
Post by: tashamjoy on February 13, 2014, 11:22:44 am
I used to only shop online for small things like a charger knick knacks but I just bought shoes online for a good price and it actually worked out really good they fit and looked good!!! I was always hesitant to buy clothes or shoes online that they wont fit or I wont like but with living at college having limited transportation and full money back returning I tried at worked out great!! I am thinking to buy a nice blazer for business casual I need for school but am still a little hesitant what are people opinions for online shopping?

I don't really shop online, I'm more of a browser or window-shopper. I have bought things online before, but I really prefer to go in-store. Online is a convenient way to find what you want ahead of time though. Or to window-shop.  :thumbsup:

I shop for a lot of things online, but not usually clothes. I don't buy new clothes very often, and it's usually just easier for me to go to the store and pick out exactly what I want.

In the last year, I have started shopping online. I love Amazon and buy at least 2-3 times a month from them. Shopping online is so easy and convenient.

I don't actually shop on line very frequently, but I do a lot of pre-purchase research on line. I like to actually see my merchandise before I actually but it, compare products with other merchandise that I can actually see, and then think about it further. On occasions where it is not possible to see a product in the "flesh", I will buy it on line but only after really careful consideration.

I constantly buy my stuff online.  especially when i can get free shipping on my purchase.  i can usually get my stuff a lot cheaper online then in the store the only difference is that you are not able to use store coupons online but instead you can usually find website or online coupons.  Its the only way that i buy my christmas gifts no way am i going to fight the crowds.

I love Amazon! I've bought from Drugstore.com, eBay, etc... It so much easier than having to drive and deal with going in and out of stores.

I shop online frequently and have for years.  We lived in the middle of no where for awhile and it was just to must to get to the "Big City to do shopping.  So I started ordering on line, especially for the holidays.  What a relief to have the stuff show up when the weather is bad and you cannot get to the stores.  Or like you have no transportation.  It also save me a lot of time. and I do less impulse shopping.  Now that I am back in a city I do go to stores more often, but still do a lot on line.  I have never had a problem with identity theft, or problems with returns and most places offer free shipping.

I love shopping online but like many of you all, I am also hesitant about shopping for clothes online. Don't know if it will be a good fit or look right on. I will say though I recently bought a pair of Nikes on Ebay. I never usually get shoes online, but they are awesome. I love them.

I shop online for a lot of stuff...but I usually go in store to purchase clothes. I had several clothing purchases not fit or look right for me that had to be returned. I also have window shopped in stores for clothes and tried things on, then go home and purchase them online from the same store  web sites and have had good experience with it that way....usually saved some money also.

I like shopping online because I can usually find items at cheaper prices (if the shipping is free).

I shop on ebay...and for hard to find things.  I try not to shop at all since I'm trying to save and pay back debt...but online shopping is convenient.  If its cost effective for me to purchase online I will...sometimes shipping will make the purchase more expensive...just depends.  Hope everyone has a blessed weekend.

 i research the big ticket items, then usually buy through Amazon or directly through the only store that carries it.

Not all the time.  I go online to compare prices and to find information.  I like to touch and see the product. But if it's cheaper online then I'll buy it. Sometimes its not.

I love online shopping you can find stuff you normally can't find at your normal stores near by and plus you can find steals and deals you cant find in any store and save a lot to boot

Yes, I shop online.  Usually get better deals with prices and I don't need to drive or deal with rude drivers.  But with scammers  all about, not sure that is even a good idea.

Yes.  My favorite places to shop online are eBay and Amazon.
