Not everyone likes shopping. I, for one, only like shopping if it's for my friends or myself. Shopping for anyone else can be time-consuming and difficult. Finding what they'd want isn't easy most of the time.

What store did you shop at last? Did you have fun? What did you buy, and who was it for?

For me, the last place I shopped at was Barnes and Noble. I was out of town with my friend Derek, passing the time during our 2-hour wait time for The Cheesecake Factory. I didn't buy any books since, despite touring the whole store, I didn't see any that I desperately wanted to read.

However, I did buy a game! I bought the Left, Center, Right game that you play with dice and checkers. I've always loved playing that game, especially with a ton of people.

PlayStation store. :V lol If it has to be a physical store, then...wow it's been so long since I shopped offline that I don't remember...

Probably Dollar General because it sells soda and is within walking distance. That was at least a month or two ago though.

Eirinn : So you mostly just shop online? Come on, man, shopping in real stores is healthy for you

I don't really have anything that's less than a 20-minute walking distance away from my house. If I want to get something from a store, I have to drive with a parent next to me.

I think that would have to be Amazon, it's nice and also with Prime I get free shipping so yey.

  the last store I shopped at was wal mart this morning when I had to go and do some grocery shopping and although it,s never fun to grocery shop it,s one of those things I,m sure we all have to do from time to time xd

I think the last store I shopped at was Walmart. I went with my dad when he was going to pick something up and I picked up some rechargeable AA batteries for our Wii remotes and wireless Playstation 2 controllers. That was maybe a week ago. I don't get out a lot.

Healthy for me? I get to enjoy the almost clean air and lovely UV rays while walking across the bad side of town and crossing a busy four lane street. So by the time I get to the store my body is fighting to resist the formation of cancer cells, I've developed a smoker's cough despite having never smoked in my life, I've been eyed by three shady looking men with guns, a bulldog showing it's teeth, and a small child with a pocket knife, and I nearly got ran over five and a half times. Then I get to walk back home! xD So the way I see it, I have at least an 89% better chance of surviving a shopping day if I shop online. :V Also I'm not just making all of this except for the four lane street up just to justify being a recluse... I promise. lol

Outside is scary. Ask safety Sammy (ten points if anyone gets the reference).

Apparently I forgot to respond to my notifications at some point because this is the 2nd thread of mine I haven't responded to until a while later.

Boured : I have a friend who has a kindle fire but doesn't like Amazon. He had trouble using Amazon Prime to buy something, and then canceling it afterwards since he didn't plan on using it every month. The free shipping is something I'd be willing to go through all that for, though!

no 8120 : Yeah, I'm sure I'll have to go grocery shopping often when I'm in college. All that studying and working my tail off will make me hungry, I almost guarantee it XD I've never had much patience for shopping unless I get to pick some items. Which usually ends up being sugary cereal.

m0ssb3rg935 : Nice, I used to be able to charge my Wii remotes on a charger, but that charger died so now I'm back to using batteries until they die and then my dad has to buy new ones.

Eirinn : Oh, now I understand

The last place I went shopping was at Kohl's last week. I noticed I was short on socks and white undershirts, so I decided to make good use of my 15% associate discount and I grabbed what I needed--it only cost me $20 dollars too. Thankfully, it wasn't incredibly busy since most of the back to school shopping had died down by that point. 90% of the time, if I need something and don't need it immediately, I just buy it online or from Amazon, it's cheaper and I don't have to deal with the hassle of long lines or screaming children. Everyone wins.

SacredShadow : Wow, great deal! Yeah, the best time to shop is when the back-to-school shopping has died down. That way you don't have to wait in a long line at the cash register and you can more easily find things because there are less of them.

Online shopping, for most people, is so easy XD

The last store i shopped at was Amazon. What i buy can't be purchase in-store, or overpriced in-store. I also have Prime so need to pay for shipping and no need to get up from desk cuz im a stereotypical overweight no life PC player.

Yuna1000 : Oh, that was nice of you!

supercool22 : That's a good advantage with it not being overpriced. And it's a very convenient method to shop

The last store I shopped at was GAME in my local area. (you guys have a GameStop over there.). It was actually my birthday surprisingly, and I had bought a Game Boy Advance SP with a handful of games just ready to be played..

Though I'll admit though, having two crappy games and two good games was a pretty dumb idea. 

realplayer109 : Ooh nice I almost always get video games for my birthday XD They aren't always good ones though so sometimes I return them and buy ones I wanted for a while.

The last store I shopped at was Barnes and Noble three days ago. I don't go there often, but I do enjoy swinging by every once in a while just to browse their shelves. Oftentimes, I don't end up buying anything, I just go in there to look around!

This time around however, I ended up buying a few different purchases. I bought two volumes of the manga, Magi (volumes 19 and 20), and a hardcover copy of Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. I already have the paperback copy which I'm reading for class, but since I like the book so much, I thought I'd buy it in hardcover. I plan on getting the second (and eventually third) books in hardcover as well. 

SacredShadow : I barely ever go to Barnes and Noble but when I do it's really cool to go through the store, like you said. I usually end up buying just 1 thing when I'm there.

I recently shopped at Natural groceries because all the grocery stores in town ran out of the tea that I like to have in the morning. In my town Natural groceries has the largest selection of different teas so I pickup some blueberry tea with my normal vanilla ginger tea.

Fantasy.Castle : It's rare for my family to shop at a store where the store is out of a product we want to buy. If even one of them ran out of tea or coffee, I'm sure many people would be upset and make the drive-thru line at Starbucks way too long XD Students at my school are fortunate enough to have a Starbucks within walking distance of the school.

I've been buying stuff from target a lot lately. Usually just sports stuff, enevelopes, and stuff like soap and toothpaste.
