What is better to use? I mean not just in terms of efficiency, value and ease of use, but does internet shopping really compare to the whole real life shopping experience? I'd like to know everyones opinions x

As far as efficiency goes stores are a lot faster because you get what you paid for on the spot and can take it home with you, where as buying something online you have to wait for it. It is also safer to shop in person than online with all the identity theft that is going on these days. The only plus side I can think of to online shopping is that things are usually cheaper and you can find just about anything you want all in one place. I guess there is a factor of convience for most people but I'd still rather shop online.

That's very true, you have to be so careful when it comes to giving out your details online. I find one of the worst things about online shopping is knowing when to stop. Because you're not physically handing out cash every time you make a purchase, it's hard to keep track and you end up going on a bit of a spending spree!! Well, I do anyway ;)

I think some things are cheaper pn the net, it just depends what it is, and then with sales in shops and adding postage on things on the net, sometimes shops are cheaper.Until a couple of years ago it was cheaper to by perfume online, but now theres so much competion in the shops it"s cheaper there.
