Shopping online now a days is very practical. For one you can shop anytime whether you are at school, home, or any place as long as you are connected witht he internet. But the downside of it, you miss the excitement or fun holding to the products or if its clothes, you'll miss the fitting on it and see if its pleases you. Shopping at the Mall, on the other hand, is still a hobby and even a passion for most shoppaholics. The good side of it is that you can be with your family or friends while looking for some good stuffs. And their opinions could also affect your shopping or budget decisions. But anyhow, which do you prefer the most?

That depends, here in my country a lot of things are very expensive, and those things i try to buy it online, but when i travel i like to go the mall, so i can see all the products by myself.

If it's for electronics I usually go online for those and DVDs and books, but if it's for clothes and things like that I sometimes go to the mall to shop.

I like shopping in the store better i like it because i can see the material of the clothes. I shop online sometimes. I like to browse their web site to view their selection.

I usually prefer buying thing on the mall rather than shopping online. The advantage is that, I can really see the item right away and check for any defects and personally examine if it is really good or not. There are however things that I purchase online. Usually these are items that I cannot buy in our area so in such a case, I order them online and pay by credit card.

I do think that shopping online for some things is great, but for some things like clothes, I usually go to stores, but for DVDs and sometimes videogames, I shop online, I also buy books online if they're not in my library.

Hi,
For me, I never shop online yet although I have lot
friends starting their online store,selling kids and
woman clothes,but I never buy anything online before.
All the time, I still shop in the shopping mall.
However , I only shop whenever necessary,or else, I better
save my money for travelling.
It is pretty convenience to shop online,but I am worry about
the quality of the cloth and also the size , as I don't have
chance to try it out before i buy.
That is one of the reason why I don't dare to shop online.
The best part is that the things I buy will reach at my
doorstep and I no need to step out from my house to shop.
Maybe one day, I will consider shop online,when I see the thing that
I like with reasonable price.
