    Question Do you shop online for holiday gifts?

    I know a lot of you make all your gifts, but for those that don't, do you do any shopping online? If so how much? After Thanksgiving, what little I have left I almost *insist* on doing online so I don't need to go to the malls.

    I do a lot online before Thanksgiving too. I would say that I do about 80% online....

    How about you?

    Yes, especially for CD's, games, etc... I've done a ton of online shopping this year and am happy to say everything I have ordered has already come in!

    Yes, I shop online year round. Did a lot of my Christmas shopping online too. I hate the crowded stores around Christmas.

    Online shopping is my prefered way.

    I went to Kohl's yesterday because my son needed to try things on and then to Foot Locker for his shoes. I was tempted to eat out twice (but it was nice ) and it took 6 hours.

    Then I came home, pulled up 411.com and called a couple of book stores to price match and tally my in store discounts due to hubby's job getting 25% off at Barnes and Noble vs. ordering at Amazon.com

    Barnes would have to order the books I wanted, so it was faster to order online. I spent $4.50 more even with free shipping, but it is worth KNOWing I'll get the books rather than leaving t chance that they would call me with such heavy C'mas traffic.

    I was able to peruse and compare several sites, look over every book mom had on her list and make my selection and I spent about an hour with NO frustration in not being able to find the books I was looking for and having to 'settle' for what they had, or in this case, would have to order.

    Plus, I don't like to shop....point and click is SO much easier and faster...and, no gas or wear and tear on car OR me!
