Re: Poll: Why do you shop for clothes online?

I always have something very particular in mind when I am looking for clothing, so I find it is much easier to find exactly what I want online than at a store. Plus the selection is usually better, I can search around for the best deal (and free shipping & coupon codes) and my size if need be.

I rarely purchase clothes online because I like to feel what I'm buying. Also, I have a Gap and a NY & Co a few blocks away. It's easier for me to go there. However, for things I can't find in a store, online offers the best selections and access.

Convenience, boredom, and also like a pp said....I sometimes have something very specific in mind and it is easier to search for it on the web then in a store.

My size isn't carried in stores: I'm 6'1", size 12 shoes and wear a G/H cup. Chat Icon


Other than that, it's convenience and sometimes boredom. Chat Icon

If it's related to home goods, then it's either for the price factor or because the items I'm looking for just aren't sold in local stores.

Re: Poll: Why do you shop for clothes online?

Mostly because I'm bored.

Once I'm bored, I start surfing the web. If I see something I like, the price is right and it's free shipping, I'll buy it. It's easier than going to the store.

So:
1. because I'm bored
2. convenience

Stores like Gap, Banana Republic, etc. don't exist here. Clothing is also much cheaper if I shop online and have my mom send it to me.

Same with me. Online shopping is more enjoyable for me since I'm usually looking for something specific and I don't have to make a mad dash from store to store before my kids get restless.

Re: Poll: Why do you shop for clothes online?

I shop online for a lot of reasons... i can do it at anytime, it ends up being cheaper with all the coupons, super simple to find your size/color without digging through piles and you can try it on at home with other stuff rather than waiting in lines to realize that no dress is gonna look good with the bra you are wearing!

For clothings/shoes: The actual store did not carry my size or in the wrong color.
