With coronavirus instead of going clothes shopping I have been buying them on-line. Today my son's new trousers arrived in the post. I bought Christmas presents for my sister's children already.
We booked an amazing trip for April this year. It felt terrible that it got cancelled due to corona virus. We have booked a week in July 2021 in a wheelchair accessible caravan West Sussex. It is ideal for my son that in a wheelchair and my two dogs. I am looking for someone that likes gerbils.

I prefer to buy my clothes in stores. I have a need to feel the material and check for quality. I’m glad I brought home all my new clothes when we returned from Florida. Now, due to the pandemic, I have had to purchase a few winter clothes online.
No Israel for us in June with the family. Nor returning to our place in Florida this year.
I love kitties.

Hi Dianne N. It is sad that you can't visit Israel or go to stay in your vacation home in Florida. I also like to feel the material of clothing and look at the quality. Like it might have buttons which might come off very easily. It is great you bought some winter clothes on-line.

You are giving up your gerbils?
I don’t buy clothes online as they are definitely something we need to try on before buying for us.

Even without the virus, we do most of our clothes shopping online just because we do not have much choices here in our small town. The only stuff that we tend to buy in-store are shoes and grocery. We really do not have any good boutiques here. If we want to do some substantial shopping, like for this coming holiday, we have to drive an hour and a half to the next bigger town.

Hello Raine 38. Yes, shopping for clothes on-line is easier because you can buy the clothing if they are in stock. I agree shoes have to be tried on. Sometimes I buy groceries on-line if the home situation is that we need shopping the next day. I prefer to go shopping for food and drinks off line. That is because I can get on better and it is cheaper. It is lovely you have a big town you can drive to.
