Do you think online shopping is practical? I sometimes find this practical, rather than me going to the malls spending money for gas just to go the malls,well not unless your house is nearby a mall.

I like online shopping because it not only saves the time, but also having the best price. There are many options via the net. You can also ask the questions to the sellers. And you can also judge the product by other buyers' feedback. This is why I like shopping online. It is just so convenient. I love China

i also do online shopping but i only limit it to clothes, shoes, accessories, bags or other small items..i find it very practical and fast and i can shop anytime at my own convenience and comfort. However, since items sold online sometimes have limited description, i make sure that i only have a certain budget for a certain item and if the item i like exceeds that budget, then i will consider and think about it again before buying. This is because sometimes it might be risky to buy something that is too expensive and once you get the item, you find that it is not as pretty as it looked so it's just a waste of money. one good thing also about online shopping is sometimes the items being sold online are items that you cannot find even in malls..

It depends of what you are buying. Online shopping is complementary to shopping for me. I would not do online shopping to buy my milk and coffee, but I am collecting old books, and now that many booksellers are online, I can find more easily the books I am looking for. I buy also occasionally items on Ebay.

Online shopping can be convenient and practical depending on what you are purchasing. I especially enjoy comparison shopping because it helps me from running form store to store and not knowing the prices are before hand. I do like to shop for electronics because often times I can find some really great deals.
