Do you prefer to shop online or go to the store? Do you find better deals that way?

I think with the rising cost of things these days I will be doing more online shopping rather than driving from store to store. Some days though I feel like I'm "missing" something from not going to the store. Maybe not spending $$ on things not needed!

I prefer online shopping and try to get free shipping. If it is a great deal then I don't worry so much about the shipping. I don't like going store to store looking for something and worrying about getting the best price.

I buy everything I can online, but I still enjoy B&M shopping!

I like online shopping because i think it curbs "impulse" buying and to the point now where you save on gas as well as dealing with crowds of people.

Sometime if you find a "too good to be true" deal online and you go to buy it or have bought it. Online stores can cancel your order - due to pricing error, or whatever excuse they use.
Now if you find a good priced item in a regular store, you will get it for the price posted.

Thats the only difference between online shopping and going into a store.

Online shopping is convenient and saves you from buying too much and you avoid crowds. I shop both online and in stores.

I've found some seriously awesome offers online this year, and with free shipping, it is totally worth it, especially if you add on the fact that you don't have to deal with holiday shopping crowds and gas costs.
I don't like driving around from store to store, so really I only do my grocery shopping at the store any more, not gifts & other things. Especially with the help of this site, I can find great bargains, so who needs to pay full price in the store?!
