Yip - can stay in your PJs!!! I hadn't ordered online years ago and got up at 4:30 on the morning after Thanksgiving, went to Circuit City to get a DVD player that was on sale for an outstanding price. Got there at 6:00....the line was going around the building twice!!!!! ARRRRGH! I don't stand in line well. On my way home, without standing in line, I heard an ad on the radio for Circuit City saying you can order online!!!!! Went home, got their website, found the DVD player....SAME price as the sale price!!!! Ordered, had it delivered to the store. They said it would be there in 15 minutes!!!! I drove back to the store 2 hours later, walked in the door, and was out in 10 minutes with the DVD player. I'm a BIG fan of online shopping!! :thumbup:

About the only store I go to these days is CVS and Starbucks :D
My husband LOVES to grocery shop. Yippee!!!!!!!
I love online shopping and yes, it can be cheaper even with shipping charges. One of my favs is Zappos. They have free ship and free return ship!!

I love to order fabric online my favorite so far is ebay. I have received some of the most beautiful fabric for pennies.

Two years ago I would have never ordered anything on line. Now I love Ebay and order fabric all the time on line. It's just great.

bad experience with cheap quality fabric ordered on, now if I don't the quality the online place ships no order from me. I like to handle fabric before I buy.

I would love to order online! My DH checks the bank statements to make sure I'm not ordering quilt stuff on line. If I do splurge on alittle fabric I do it out of my grocery money and just say groceries cost me $15 more then it really did. Sad I know. I'm soo bad! He would have a double fit if I paid for shipping!
