Things you've bought online...

[zeroturbulence]

These days you can buy pretty much anything online. What are some of the things you've bought online?

*thinks*

It might be an easier question to ask what things I HAVEN'T bought online. Seriously, aside from groceries, gasoline, ammunition, and some clothing...unless it's something you need right this moment, there's not reason NOT to buy online.

Everything I can! I actually just bought a ton of stuff the last few days. A jacket from eBay, a lanyard for my gym key, gym shoes in a size that wasn't available locally, jeans, lots of face paint supplies... I buy 80% of my Christmas gifts on Amazon and similar sites. It's so much easier to price shop and order things on-line.

I found Ebay a little over a year ago and you name it they got it - old and new stuff..... For Christmas a couple of years ago my daughter and I wanted to give her boyfriend a guitar for Christmas but wanted him to be able to pick out what he wanted so she found a guitar tin that we put the cash in for him to go and buy the guitar of his choice. I thought that was a really cool online purchase.

I love to sew and have taken up quilting so I have purchased, material, sewing tools, lace, embroidery thread, crafting items online and getting ready to start a business 2015 called Darlene Things.....yes, my name is Darlene.... Hand Crafted Items + More.

Nothing like throwing a little advertisement in at the same time right?.....lol

​Never have bought anything online, and probably never will.. :/

I've bought cheap things online. Online orders for pizza, KFC and groceries. I have bought books and clothes online. That's the maximum I will buy online. When it comes to stuff like watches, shoes, perfumes, guitars, etc. I prefer to touch-feel-pick the one I want.

Maybe it is because I am a picky customer who is very particular about quality.

Pizza, a LOST T-shirt and LOST hatch neck thing, movie tickets, lots and lots of books, some music and card games (Munchkin etc.) and video games and DVD movies and TV series.

Hi brother! Thanks so much. Yes, Arlene's very special to me (but you probably gathered that).

What I bought on ebay...

Oh come on, you knew someone was going to mention that song.


I bought my toe shoes online. You can't get Vibrams around here, just the cheaper knock-off Fila Skeletoes.
I also like to buy ThinkPad laptops online. When the big corporations get through with them I can get a good ThinkPad off-lease really cheap. And every ThinkPad I ever bought is still running. That's right, they're ALL STILL RUNNING! Beat that HP.

Music, clothing, kids shoes, craft kits for Sunday school, food, books, hair care products, contact lenses.

 

[arwen-undomiel]

Band t-shirts, albums via iTunes, spider ultrasonic repellent device, books, textbooks and clothing that's 'online only' in stores.

Shoes.. Clothes... Home decoration... Furniture... Decoration...books..ect

One thing I should mention, there are ways to play it smart when you buy online. I use a debit card linked to a checking account, and I only ever have as much in that account as I'm about to spend online. And I canceled bounce protection so they can't run up an overdraft on the account.

Ain't nobody gonna steal anything on THAT card, ain't nothing to steal. =^.^=

Ha, I'm exactly the opposite. I can't just pick out an electronic device in the store... I have to get on-line and read a gazillion reviews about it, find the best price, and order it based on what everyone else thinks about it.

Perfumes though, yeah, have to smell those myself. Shoes, gotta try those on. But stereo speakers? AMAZON!!

 

[Ho11y]

Books, so sooooo many books! Oh, and bracelets so sooooo many bracelets

You are singing my song! From music players (well... phones now, smartphones have pretty much made mp3 players obsolete) to shoes to boom boxes, I will find the best out there before I spend one dime.

Speaking of which, I also bought my smartphone online. The stuff they carry at AT&T, Verizon, Wal-Mart and Best Buy is (imo) junk. They don't carry the phone I got, because heaven forbid they would actually sell something GOOD!
