Shopping?

Hey guys I was sitting here bored and I was thinking about the evolution of shopping. I used to be like everyone else and whenever I wanted something I would drive to a store and get it. Now I only go to a shop for three things: Food, Clothes and if I need something in a rush. How about you guys do you still mainly shop at stores or online?

I do most of mine at actual stores. I like being able to get something right away. Plus I don't have to pay for shipping then.

I can do most of what I need online or via catalogue. The postal service here is great. Except maybe for shoes (I prefer to feel and fit them first). I still shop on the stores for bulk items whose shipping costs more than the price of the item.

I buy certain things off the internet but mostly I prefer shops. You can get it right there and then and there's no hassle of what you ordered being wrong or damaged.

Mom told me never to talk to strangers, and you're pretty strange.

50% clothes shopping online while the other are at stores.
100% grocery shopping in stores.
99% Video games, music, electronics online.

I don't mind going to the store and doing the shopping. It's just much better variety and prices online. You can check out all the stores you need until you find the one item you want. If you go to the actual store it'll take you days comparing prices and finding the right item for you.

I readily go grocery shopping 2-3 times a week to keep things fresh. Clothes shopping only in stores but very, very infrequently because I despise shopping and anything else I'll get online usually just to avoid all the rude peoples.

I still don't like buying stuff online, I'd rather just drive out and find it myself. It's more fun, too.
