I love shopping on line. No long lines, no traffic although you have to plan for delivery.I will have to try Etsy. It looks like the place to find a gift for the person who has everything.

I am so scared to spend too much money right now. So I got to wait and see if I still have my same job.

I have only shopped online a couple of times and really like it. I do plan to start doing more in the future. I hear a lot about how people really like it. I have an Amazon account that I will be using for Christmas gifts.

I do most of my shopping online.  I just ordered the new Kindle Fire with gift cards that I have earned.

i like shopping online, but the thing i don't like is the return process if something isn't right
and not being able to try on clothes/shoes, I tend not to buy those items online as much

I love shopping online. Being a mother of eight, I need the convience of shopping at home. In addition companies seem to offer a better discount if you shop onlne more than if you go into the store.

i love shopping online! It beats fighting through crowds in stores, and you can always compare prices from different sites so you make sure you always get the best deal!

I've bought a few things online but I'd still rather talk to someone in person about what I'm ordering.

I'm still not sure about the online shopping thing either.  Sometimes I would rather see some things up close.  I don't think I would buy clothes online.

I love shopping online. I really don't like running around to a bunch of stores trying to find what I am looking for.

I love online shopping. I seem to find better deals and easier to compare price. The frustrating thing is I'm competing with too many other people who love shopping for deals as well and I seem to miss a lot of good deals that are gone sooner than if strictly a brick and mortar advertisement. Black Friday? I'm terrible whether in store or online.

People who don't shop online have no idea what they are missing.  Sit in my pajamas to shop? Or, battle hoards of rude people and wait in long lines to checkout?  I think I'll choose the former every time.

Not only is it much easier to comparison shop without having to drive from store to store, but you usually can get much better deals.  More and more places are also now offering free shipping.

This holiday season I plan on the vast majority of my shopping to be done online, as has been the case the last several years.  Screw the craziness of the brick and mortars.  :P

I do a lot onlne, but usually to pay bills, not so much for gifts unless I know exactly what I want to buy. I will buy work related stuff online becuase I usually know what I am getting.

I was lying in bed the other night, looking up at the stars, and thinking, "Where in the heck is my roof?"
