Online Shopping Vs Local Shopping

I just wanted to see who does what. As big of a Tech guru as I am I must admit I dont shop online nearly like I should compared to paying more locally. Example, I went to Old Navy and found some shorts that I really liked but of course they didnt have my size, I go to OldNavy.com and they have them there and they are cheaper then in the store! $7 Shipping for everything I bought I cant complain at all! I also have been looking for a certain pair of Crocs and couldnt find them anywhere so I went to 6pm.com and they had them there 60% off. I need to do this more I think...

I shop more locally because I'm an impulse buyer and when it's online I can easily talk myself out of it. But if I plan to buy something before hand and it's not like groceries, I find it for cheap online.

They might be ugly, but once I put on a pair way back in my sophomore year I fell in love with them. HMO, I got my pair of those at Belk on sale...$10. I think I'll wear them when I walk in graduation next May, since technically they're not flip-flops.

all Jr wears is crocs.

i was lookin at the same thing HMO, only in all black, b/c they aren't quite as ugly.
i look online, but don't really like buying clothes online unless i can try them on in the store first and them order them online

i still say it doesn't matter how comfortable they are, they are the ugliest thing I have ever seen...why people would do that to their feet will baffle me...

i agree they are ugly, but they are comfortable. i wouldn't wear them out, but i would just wear them occasionally when i needed a comfortable shoe in the summer

I thought the only people who wear crocs were under 15 years old?

Youd be surprised how many students on campus Ive seen (both male and female) wear Crocs (I loathe them with a passion that burns like the fire of a thousand suns)

Nope, they were real crocs...just like the picture you posted with the laces on top...size 10, $10 on sale and with a Belk coupon my mom gave me. Sometimes great things happen in department stores.

BJ-I had no idea crocs gave you such issues, I thought you were still upset over the jeans being allowed in class.
