Which shopping is the best..?Online shopping or shopping by your own...?

Personally, i love online shopping and shopping on your own. The bad thing about online shopping is that you cannot touch the fabric of that particular top and probably the sizing might not be the same. The joy about it is that during late nights, you can browse through as many clothes as possible. Some clothes are not even at the boutique itself! As for shopping on your own, Some clothes tend to be a bit too pricey and furthermore, you like the clothes, the fabric use. This will make you harder to separate yourself from that top. Thus ended up buying that pricey top and your pocket is ripped off.

i think that pretty depends on what I want to shop. If it's clothes, i'd prefer to shop by my own as i can try on. If online shopping, even though there might be measurements given, still, i'd feel unsure about it. As for some electronic stuffs, i think that can be done online. As for paying bills, i definitely prefer doing it online as i can avoid queuing, finding car parks, saving petrol & avoid the bad weather (either scorching hot or rain). :p Happy mylotting to u. :D

[i]Hi ds, I have tried buying online but not all the time I am satisfied, I will go for shopping on my own.It's nice to see and try the product because the sizes and style is not always the same when we just see in on the picture! PLus the fun of roaming around and watching people can be very relaxing too..LOL! But for sure, not for most of the men![/i]

Online shopping can be fun and convenient, but I prefer to not pay shipping or taxes, so for those reasons, stores are better. [At least for clothing.] I would rather go into the stores and try items on to make sure they fit, also. And sometimes even if you know the size is correct [though you can never be sure] it is still a good idea to try it on, because it might not look as good on you as you might think. It's no fun ordering something and getting all excited only to find it just looked good on the model! As for other shopping, I don't do any of that, so I have no worries there. But if it's not clothes and there's an occasion when I don't feel like going out to the store, online shopping can be helpful!

i prefer raiding my favorite stores in the mall.. because i can get to see the actual item and fit it right away... you know, shopping online has pros and cons and what i hate about it is the fact that some sellers don't tell you the real condition of the item and you are unsure whether the size will fit you or not..

I do quite agree with you. I electronic stuff and books online. while buying dress I don't think the stuff from the net will fit us well.

It's online shopping for me only when i'm absolutely certain of what i want. Other wise its always shopping at the store. I get the need and urge to touch and feel the product before buying it. Further one can neve be sure of the quality and color of items like clothes when oneis buying online.

Either of the two. Each of it has advantages and disadvantages. It is nice to go shopping in the mall because you can double check the item that you like to buy. But sometimes its tiring because you need to look around to see and buy what you really want. With online shopping, all you have to do is search. The disadvantages is, you re not sure if it will fit it right to you unless is shows the fitting chart of an item. And it only requires few hours to do online shopping

I usually shop in the stores because I have a problem finding clothes that fit right. A month ago, I decided to order something online. It took over a month to get it. When I finally did get it, it didn't fit. Now I have to send it back. I think it's better to buy clothes in the store so you can try them on. At least for me. Other things like books, cd's, dvd etc. I buy online.

I still rely on shopping by myself instead of on the internet. I feel a picture of a product on the web can be very misguiding. You might expect something, and finally get something else. So dats why I don't resort to online shopping...

A loto f people are resorting to online shopping not only because the are so busy but gas prices are raging too. But from my experience you have to watch those shipping costs. We have the whole "Black Friday" thing here (the day after Thanksgiving) and I wish some of those would take up online shopping! LOL Then I could get to the bargains. I mainly opt for regular shopping but I've done both.

Online Shopping is the better option now a days!!

well first being honest i don't have an experience of doing online shopping but as far as i can perceive i can say that being physically present and involved can help us in deciding about the actual quality and attractiveness and price of the product while online the graphics stuff is so powerful and attractive that you fall for that. however many advantages are as well there.like more number of products to opt from. wide range of same product.easily can compare the products and look for the best deal. you save money for the fuel you had to burn to get to market etc etc but i will still go with the traditional way thanks for sharing

I think it depends on what you are shopping for actually. If you are buying clothes, I think shopping with a few friends of the opposite gender is the best. Why so? Because the opposite gender are the people looking at you and knowing what suits you or not! HAHA. If you are buying bulky electronics products, I think online shopping will be better, you don't have to worry about carrying them home, get people to deliver it!

well, i opt to do my shopping in the malls..hehehe i am not so fan of online shopping because i dont really get to see the real product. i want to fit the clothes, look at what the detail of the things that i want to buy, and with online shopping i have to pay for shipping and handling..hehehe so i always prefer buying in the boutique or in the mall, or i do online shopping not for clothes and accessories but only for products like perfume, lotions, etc2!hehehe

I hate shopping, so if I can buy something on line, I will. I am much more comfortable sitting at my computer ordering something. I do prefer to get clothes in person though because I hate messing around with returning stuff, so I prefer to make sure something fits before I buy it.

Going shopping is a great time consumer. But it has a very big advantage over Online shopping. You will know what you are getting. If you are shopping something online, and it's not from a good source, you will always be doubtful if you can get a good product. But when you go shopping on your own, you can always see what you are buying and select the best for you. bourne

Online shopping is really more easy and convenient, but for me, shopping by my own is much better and the best. Just like you said, quite missed the fun and enjoyment in shopping the things that want and you didn't see the product you had order personally, you can't see the actual appearance and not quite see if it is really good or not. And also, online shopping was quite hassle too, the shipping cost was quite expensive than the price that you bought and you'll wait up to 21 days to one month to get the product. So for me, I prefer shopping by my own than online shopping.

I have no experience of on line shopping but i like shopping by own is a good method of shoppingbecause by this mean we can purchase the dress according to our buget and choice . electronic stuff should be purchase on line branded becauase there is no apperihension of duplicacy.

when i shop i usually go to mall with my husband, it was part of our relaxation of my husband and with spending time together. We go to the mall that we can also watch movies.
