I usually shop about 50/50. Some things I can't find online that I can get in the stores and vice-versa.

I do both. And this is the first xmas ever that I'm 80% done and it's not even December 1st yet. I'm usually working on items for the St. Nick stockings (Dec. 6) and then after that's overwith, I would start on my xmas shopping. Hoping to wrap it up by Dec. 20. And yes these past 5 years or so have been nuts with last minute shopping! So I highly recommend online shopping - it's great!

I do both. Some deals are better online and some are better at the stores. And sometimes it's just better to shop in your pajamas! :D

I used to shop online, but not anymore. I have just paid off my credit cards from last year. I am paying cash this year! LOL!! I started a Christmas Club at my bank last year.

Neither. Most of my Christmas shopping this year has been done through QVC. I get terrific discounts and find things there that aren't in the stores yet.

Well, I voted the last option, but I SHOP!!! Just not online.....for two reasons:

1) (The bigun) I don't have any credit cards since I have a huge one to pay off

and

2) I love to shop physically anyways!! :D

DITO here ;) I love the choices that you can find online. If I never had to go shopping again that would be fine with me. You can get everything online now (minus Groceries)

I don't do Christmas shopping with credit cards. Lindaloo I did Christmas last year with cash only and it felt great not to spend all year trying to pay those bills off before next Christmas.

I love Ebay - they have paypal which is from my checking account. I'm addicted.

I'm not your typical female in a few ways:

I hate shopping!

I'm not really into jewelry.

I wear only minimal makeup. And I've never worn eye shadow.

All of that said, now you can see why I prefer online shopping! Quick and easy. I just found a steal on xmas cards at Lillian Vernon, online. Now we just need to take our annual picture and tally up how many we need. But these cards (with insert for a 4 by 6 photo) are at least 50% less than even Target!!! You can't beat that.

And finally, my girls think I'm so out of touch - hate shopping, not into jewelry, wear only basic makeup. LOL You have to be true to yourself I like to say!!! I know I'm definitely in the minority on all of this.

Mary

PS - oh I almost forgot - I'm not into perfume either!!! My daughter Nina is the total opposite of me - she's a walking Bath & Body Works girl!
