Online shopping. Who does it??

We do it once a week, not because we are lazy, but because it takes 10 mins to do, and its easy =] Please comment. Chris

I hate shopping, I guess it's a blokey thing, but when you save a fortune on dvds and cds online than trawling around high streets, you become addicted to shopping online. For example in HMV Bad Girls set of dvds was £35, online I bought the same dvd set brand new, sealed for £12! Work that out! I never do food shopping on line because I like to choose and pick out what I want, clothes too which I have to try on, but anything else I will search online rather than go shopping.

I agree with you, except the food thing, we can do a weeks food shop in literally 5 minutes. its soo simple, and if you are not happy with an item when you get it home, you phone them up, and they give you that item for free, and then your money back too =] its goog. Chris

I do my main grocery shopping online for bulky / heavy stuff and I use Amazon and other online retailers for other purchases as they quite often have better prices and much more choice than the local shops. I can also have heavy / bulky items delivered which is a great convenience.

We tend to do the same, except if we want to go to the shops for a look around, which sometimes we do just to actually get out. Thanks for the reply, Chris

What do you shop for? Grocery? clothes? I shop for food online only if there is huge snow storm. delivery charges are big and I am much better to drive to get it all in the local store.

We normally do it online for everything except clothing. Over here we dont have really bad snow storms, so we dont have to worry about that. We just pay a standard $9 a week extra for delivery =] Chris

I do love internet shopping, it's so simple, efficient, and usually a bit cheaper! However, this can sometimes be a bad thing, I can get a bit overboard when I'm net shopping, it's hard to keep track of how much money you're actually spending, since you're not handing over any actual cash and it's so easy to make a purchase! I try to restrict my net shopping to cds and dvds, as with most sites delivery is free, and you can get some real bargains!
