Online Product Ordering
« on: July 08, 2018, 05:19:59 pm »
I am disabled & have more than just a little trouble getting around.  I order almost everything online and most of the time am happy with it -  sometimes with clothing the fit could be better but recently I ordered a trashcan to put wash cloths in until I had a whole load. Oh I wish you could see how tiny this is it might hold two washcloths and that would be pushing it LOL. Oh well will use for tissues by my bed. Do you order much online or prefer to go out shopping?

I really prefer to shop at stores.  I like being able to touch, feel, see and try on it if necessary before purchasing.  I hate having to return items when I shop online if something is wrong with it

 I do order a lot of things online.  I try not to make snap decisions. I often review items at least for five times before purchasing. I often look at dimensions and read product reviews before I buy.  I do purchase clothes online but I stick to one or two brands that I know very well.  :rainbow: :rose: :peace: :wave:

I've gotten into ordering more online in the last four months. I'm at the point of the only stores I go to regularly are the pharmacist and grocery stores.

I prefer to shop in stores to support the local economy, but the problem is I can rarely find what I'm looking for. So I end up wasting a bunch of time driving around to different stores looking for something I'll never find, and I just end up going home and ordering it online anyway. I really hate shopping. It's so frustrating.

I shop online a lot and save more on gas than it costs me for Amazon Prime.

I love to shop online.  I belong to Amazon Prime and the yearly cost far outweighs all the free shipping I get, plus the other benefits of Prime.

I love shopping online. It is like window shopping only you actually buy something. :)

2 wash cloths? There should be dimensions telling how big the product is. You have to read t carefully because they pictures are deceiving. I order some online.  If I could get things worked out so I could work from home and was here all the time I would order a lot of stuff online esp if I can get free shipping.

My shopping is about half and half. I have a WalMart and several grocery stores close by, so it's easy to pop out and get the essentials. But for a lot of purchases, I save money by shopping online. I'll watch prices and buy when they drop if I can wait for the item, if not, I'll shop around and see who has the best price.

Sadly, it usually ends up being Amazon.

I do most of my shopping online as it is hard for me to get around the stores also. I don't buy food online.

I just signed up for Prime .. I'm hoping their prices are good so I can do more ordering online.

I prefer shopping online because it's convenient. I use Amazon, eBay, and Walmart.

It really depends on what we're talking about as far as ordering online.  Since I work in a grocery store I pick stuff up often...although now that I'm riding my bike I'm not as often... bout once a week now.  We do however purchase much of our supplies online for business's.   We purchased our washer and dryer online.  Shipping was free and the guys even carried em' down to the basement.  It's really great how much online shopping we can do.
