I understand the Monday after thanksgiving is the busiest on line shopping day of the year |
I read that over the weekend too, apparently a lot of people shop from their work where hi-speed connections are readily available (except at certain gym's in IL  ) |
 Amazing I made it into the top 10 with dial up huh?

When I worked, I did it all online. Had it shipped to my office, wrapped it as it came on my lunch hours, brought it all home whenever I felt like it.
Now, I'm too deep into school to care one way or the other, so am leaving Xmas to Rex. (Rexmas!)
It's our turn to host Xmas this year, and my last final is on the 22nd. Yep, I got 2 days to get it all in gear. Who wants to be me? <Crickets>

Amen to that! Last year I ordered clothes for relatives at Nike, Adidas, Old Navy...This year I'm already planning on ordering a gift set from El Paso Chile Company for the salsa lover in our family. Still working on the rest. Definately beats the crowds and the parking problem.

I'm changing this thread title to:
Online Shopping SUCKS Rocks!
I wanted to by "Big Bad Bow" for my son for Christmas so I went online to buy it. It costs $19.99 at ExpensivePrices R' Us but buying it online was almost double that! I even saw an Ebay auction (which you KNOW I hate) selling it for $29.99 and that didn't even include the shipping of about $10-15!
I'm going back to the store!
