I predict that this year some regular mall shoppers will turn to online shopping due to the fear of getting or spreading the swine flu. what do you think?

Last year was my first real online shopping year. I did most of my shopping for the kids at http://www.rockworldeast.com and for anyone else it was www.amazon.com.. and i plan on doing the same this year...

what about everyone else?

I think I may try both this year.

I have already done both this year. Technically, I dont usually "mall shop". More of the Target type stores.

I don't mind mall shopping as long as we know what we're getting when we go. I refuse to wonder aimlessly trying to decide if this would be good for little Jimmy.

Lol I don't go shopping with my wife. I like to get in and get out!

I'm doing most online. Worked out well for me last year. I will still go to some actual stores. Really hope to stay away from the malls, though.

I'm with Chris...I like to get in and get out, and like Rybcon said...I want to know what I need before I get there. But...since I have not decided what I need yet I do not know which method I will use. Either is fine with me, but I prefer online.

I usually do my shopping at the mall but this year I am going the online route.

ooooh nooooo, most of my on-line purchases are going to have to be returned! I've received some items already and unfortunately I don't think my DH will be happy with what I ordered, so they may have to be returned. Then I ordered several items for friends and didn't read the actual descriptions well enough. Saw them in an actual store the other day (I haven't received them yet) and they are not going to do. But these were mistakes on my part. The online process works well if you pay attention to what you are actually ordering! LOL!

cinders , you are right, it’s necessary to pay attention to what you are actually ordering) I don’t like mall shopping as long as I don’t like to waste my time. I plan to order all christmas gifts (http://www.gettingpersonal.co.uk/christmas-presents/christmas-gifts.htm) for my family and friends on-line idea:. And a present for my fiancée has already arrived! blush:

I think the best online shopping maybe is honormall.com

I do a little bit of both. My boyfriend likes very niche things that are easier to find online, but I do enjoy getting out into the mall.
