I have been finding myself buying more online now days than before. I even bought my wedding dress online. I paid $30.00 for it and that included shipping. so I was wanting to see if more of us MyLotters are buying online now days? If so, what have you got most recently? Did you get a good deal on it? Have a great day! Happy MyLotting!

I still enjoy going to the store to shop. Actually, it's more window shopping!!! I look until I find what I want & then I come home & go online to see if I can get it cheaper!!! My last purchase was a 625Gb External Hard Drive. I was looking at a 250Gb drive at the store for $132. I came home & went to dealoco.com & found a 625Gb for $80 with FREE shipping. That was $50 I needed to save for groceries!!! Before that I found a printer/fax/scanner on sale at Office Depot. I went to every store in the area (because it was the last day of the sale) only to find they had none in stock. I came home feeling upset I couldn't get my printer while it was on sale. Suddenly the light bulb came on & I went online. I had my printer the very next day at the sale price & delivered to my door for free!!! I like going to the store so I can ask that nagging question I need to have an answer to before I buy. But I'm finding it much easier & cheaper to buy online. Only thing that worries me is what about all the jobs at the stores that will be going away when we start ordering online??? Circuit City is a prime example. They closed ALL their stores only to open an online store. Once they get us moved over to the convenience of online, how long will it be before they STOP the free shipping??? Then we'll have NO store to go to in order to get what we need!!!

Good point. I like to shop online at stores that are to far for me to travel too. I go to local stores that are close to my house. If I got to one and it is out of what I want. I have found that some places will let you order online and pick up at your local store. Thanks for you response and have aa great day!

Wow, $30 for a wedding dress? And not only that, it also includes the shipping fee! What site did you buy that? That is really a bargain price. Well I did buy something online this month. I bought jeans worth $10 plus $1 shipping fee. Yes, I did a good deal with it. I'm satisfied with the item that I receive.

I buy quite a few things online. I have a very hectic university course and I do a lot of stuff outaside of my course so I find buying things on the internet ideal as I often don't have time to go to the shops. I will often do a large food shop online with my housemates as I don't own a car and it's easier than carrying the food back to my house or on the bus. I also buy lots of things on eBay for my business because I find that I can often get a very good deal on items on there than elsewhere. I also like buying DVDs and Books online because I think that they are often cheaper. If I'm buying books for modules that I've taken at University I can often save between £10-20 on them. I'd rather buy clothes in a shop however because I like to be able to try them on.

I did some purchases online but not that often. Having these great improvements in the internet really makes lives easy for everyone. But it would not hurt to still go out and do the regular type of shopping. It also gives the shopper to exercise and enjoy at the same time.

I agree with you about going out to shop. I just can not go as much as people who live in big cities. When I lived in a big city. The mall was my second home. My mother and friends could not get me away from the mall when I was younger. Thank you for your response and have a great day!

Although I started a discussion about being scammed in eBay, I still love shopping online. That's already a part of me, a habit which I'm not sure if I'll ever let go any time soon. Recently, I bought cosmetics, makeup brushes, clothings and accessories. This stuff have always been my passion. A lot of times, I feel guilty buying them afterwards, but since I usually am able to get a good deal from them, then it's just fine. Aside from eBay, I also love shopping in Multiply shops. I love it there, maybe because, it is easier to keep up with contacts, especially, favorite sellers.

I sometimes feel like you do a little guilty. I think about it at the end and think of all the money I just saved from doing in online and what great deals I got. Thank you so much for your post and have a great day!!

Yea, I have actually been finding myself buying more online. It is a lot easier, also you find better deals that way. A pair of pants that I saw in the store for $20 I actually found them online for $9 talk about a major deal.

i love online shopping. i like to buy items that are not available here in our country. i like getting costumes and pretty dresses for my kid, toys, party supplies and favors, and even unique jewelries. my most recent purchase was a formal dress for my kid. i think it's a bit expensive compared to those that are available here but it is really pretty so i think it's worth it.

It seems as if you can find more colors or even more styles online. I have found that when you go to stores alot of the time they have a few colors, but go to the main webpage and you find more colors and styles. I find it more interesting to find it online that way I don't got to waste gas and go shopping. This is because the nearest place to shop is almost 100 miles away from my house. Thank you for your response and have a great day!

I do not buy online. I am afraid of what I am going to get. I prefer to go to mall with my children and grandchildren and buy what I see with my 2 own eyes. It is exercise for me as well to be strolling in malls. It is cooler for me also.

yes, i usually order my desire products online, escpecially on bestbuy website. i think it is very convenient to get some products via internet at home, and i am also very busy at work so i don't have enough time to go to store. however, the disadvantage of buying online is that you can't touch the product to determine if it is really very good like it is said on websites. my girlfriend also likes buying online, she will buy a wedding dress online, just like you, because we are going ot get married.

I don't buy online mow a days. I think there are lots of sites, which provides things for cheap prices. I think if a person loves the things online he or she should go and buy things online. Some of my friends do buy things online occasionally.

Honestly, I think it would be more simple and faster to buy things online and if you use a secure payment processor it makes it more safe and easier to do than regular buying. I don't have proper funds to actually shop online but I will be, I'd say in the next two months or so buying stuff on ebay in auctions and then reselling, it that actually works. And I have purchased one thing online, a box of pencils and it was a great deal!

I started buying on line since last year because of my friend's suggestion, and i found it's great to buy on line, it's convenience and economic, the price is resonable. I've bought a lot recently such as shoes, CD, mouse, cell phone and so on.
