Title: Shopping Preference
Post by: sherryinutah on November 26, 2012, 12:45:33 am
Are you a Black Friday shopper, Small Business Saturday shopper or do you prefer Cyber Monday shopping?

I'll do anything to avoid crowds.  Cyber Monday is the only way to shop, for me.    :heart:

What is your preference?

I like to shop when know one is around. But I know what I am shopping for when I leave home! It
does not take me long to shop!

Shopping online is DA BOMB.  Have all my shopping done except for a couple of gift cards and some miscellaneous stuff.

I genreally don't do any after Thanksgiving shopping. If I did any, it would be online, because there is no way I'd fight all the crowds in the stores.

I do my shopping online, but have not purchased anything before on those days.

To get any real bargains I need to drive 20 or 30 miles into traffic and pay the outrageous price of gas today. I would rather order online and have it delivered to my door, especially since so many websites are offering free shipping right now.

Cyber Mondays is best no crowds, lines, or waiting for people to help you. You just take your time and pick what you want.

I'm not big on shopping, specially those specific days. But if I have to, I usually choose cyber monday out of the three. If I shop online, however, I don't mind any of the three choices, since I'll be avoiding crows, waiting long periods of time, boring, camping, walking, out of stock, etc. I'll have to wait for the shipment to arrive, but if I'm shopping early, then it's not an issue.

I did Black Friday last year at Walgreens and CVS got great deals. But I love shoping at CVS and get the free stuff and even free CVS cash to buy more free stuff.  :peace:

I tend to do a little bit of it all.  Worst of all, I can become a procrastinator . . . or is it indecisive . . . or both . . . hmmm lol  lol lol
I do like to support small business because we would sure miss them if we ONLY had cyber shopping.  I like to get good deals but if it is reasonably close I will shop local to support local business and economy.  I will pay good money to avoid traffic though!!  Don't seem to have as much patience these days.  LOL
Cyber shopping when the shipping is free makes a big difference to me.  This year I am shopping for a couple items I can seem to only get on line which bugs me -- somethings I want to be able to touch and feel and be able to return easier if I am wrong about the recipient.

I love shopping anyway, but because of free shipping offered on so many websites, I did some of my shopping online, and got some good deals also.

I cannot stand to shop on days where there are lots of crowds.  I hate waiting in lines to pay for merchandise.  I especially hate the traffic jams, the rude drivers who cut you off.  I have even had one driver many years ago who was so stressed that she backed up into me. There was no damage.  However, she informed me that this had happened to her 3 times previously that morning.  I prefer to shop online whenever possible, especially during the holidays and special days.

Honestly I avoid all those worthless days. If I am going to shop I will never shop on Black Friday or Cyber Monday. I do it when everyone is done. Online of course.

I just like to shop online, period. I didn't have any money to spend this past weekend, so I didn't participate in any of the holiday "kick off" shopping days.
