Online Shopping
 
Do you do any and where do you shop and what do you buy?

I have purchased DVDs and CDs at Amazon.com. I bought my camera at Ritz camera online last year. The store at the mall did not have the model I wanted so I ordered it online and got it in less then a week. Tax free, too :blob2:
I ordered from Dunkin Donuts.com at Xmas time. :laugh:

I ordered my contact lenses online and got them on Monday.

I have ordered DVDs from, Wal Mart, Circuit City, and Best Buy in the last few years.

Other then that I am not a big online shopper but I think that I am going to become one.

The only thing I don't like about buying online are the shipping costs. They're ridiculous. You find a DVD online that's $5 cheaper than in a store, but then you essentially pay the same amount once shipping is tacked on. And if it's defective, you have to pay to send it back. :(

Yeah, someplaces do have free shipping but you have to wait a longer time to receive it. I hate waiting. I do seem to have good luck with Amazon, however.

Oh man...
 
I got my digital camera at Buy.com.

I've shopped just about everywhere online. LOL Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Amazon.com, and yes, Ebay. I love www.alldirect.com when I am looking for an import or something, they have a pretty great selection of CD's, DVD's and books. Decent prices too, check 'em out. :thumbsup:

I've bought my mom a Valentine's package and my friend a Christmas chocolate package online.

I love to compare prices on stuff, see who charges tax, who doesn't, where I can get free shipping, etc.

but I enjoy www.cdinzane.com , I paid $2.99 for shipping and had the cd 2 days after I placed my order...That was the fastest I have ever seen an online order arrive and the price was reasonable, $10.95 for a 2 disc import!!!! And this release (Chris Caffery's "Faces/God Damn War") was NOT the edited US release either!!!

Plan to wipe cdinzane.com out when we get our taxes filed (Have a ton of medical expenses to claim, Both Deb's & my own, Not including mileage, etc.).

I like Barnes and Noble online because all orders over $25 give you free shipping and they guarantee that you'll get it in less than three days. :woohoo:

I was left in one once. We stopped in before dinner. Before I knew it, they left and ate and came back and got me. Good thing I wasn't that hungry. :rolleyes:

LOL, I have to do that in a lot of stores. :eek: Do not go down that aisle, just run in and get what you came in for. I have to put blinders on.

YEP - and I am a member of the club and get a discount!!!!

Goldie has seen my obsession with airline and other points in action. I usually find a way to get the most for less and why not - better in my pocket than in their's. I am flying to Hong Kong and China in March FIRST CLASS on Air France for FREE with Delta points. I am also staying for free a few night in the hotels I am going to. If you can learn to work the points, you have got it made!!!!!

You got ****ing gypped, dear. :laugh: A yearly fee just to get 10% off of full retail? No thanks. :laugh: What drives me mad about B&N is that everything is list price. That's just wrong.
