i like the convenience and ease of online shopping but i still prefer shopping at stores. it seems more enjoyable to walk around and see many sites and sounds. it's also easier to evaluate product quality when you actually see the product. i once bought something that looked so good online and was promptly dismayed when i got the product

I use to never shop online. I would rather go out and shop at the malls. Now I shop online all the time. I love it. I always look for coupon codes to save online too. It is also fun getting the items delivered right to my door.

I like both! It really depends on what I'm shopping for. I feel comfortable with buying just about everything online in from select merchandisers except for clothes. With clothes I like to be there in person to make sure it fits me. That's just something you can't really do online in my opinion.

i like to shopping in stores only and we can see many other products of same variety and we can select that products directly seeing them and mostly we can see the quality and in online shopping we can't see the quality so i don;t prefer online shopping.
but recently i have done shopping in one site and have bought 2 items from that site called sifymall. the products are good and they send the products intime to the address i have given.
but in internet shopping the prices will be more in some sites i think and the quality will not be good .so i don;t prefer the internet shopping.

I have never shopped online till date, because my dad restrains me from doing so.
He says, you should not give your credit card no. online, even if its a secure site. And I know he is right. But recently I got Gift certificate worth Rs. 500, from Indiatimes online shopping, so I'll try my hand at online shopping with this for the very first time in my life!
Otherwise, its always shopping, by going to the stores!

It depends on what I'm shopping for. If it's clothes I want to try it on. Just cause it looks good on the model doesn't me it's going to look at all good on me!
Some things I really want to see up close, touch etc before I buy. Others like electronics, books only the best price matters and often I can get that online.

I like shopping online for the convienience of it. I do not like to fight a crowd! LOL I shop online for a lot of stuff but never for clothes unless I just specifically know the size of the brand or something. I like to try clothes on before purchasing them. But other than clothing I have bought just about anything else online and love it! There are several options online but it takes some time to find them.

I like both online shopping and shopping in stores. It depends what I want to buy. I have often bought books and cds online, but clothes, shoes etc I usually buy in stores.
