Online Shopping?

Here's the question of the month.....are you an online shopper and do you prefer online shopping over shopping in a store?

Last year I did a ton of online shopping, and while I enjoy being at the mall on occasion, the reality is, shopping at the mall is extremely time consuming. Plus, I will do everything in my power to not take a two year old and a four year old to the mall. It's not my idea of fun.

With today's technology, online shopping has become a breeze. With free shipping and sites that have teamed up with other sites to offer one time shipping, you're really not losing much because of a shipping charge anymore.

Plus, with online shopping, it's easy to find clothes in the right size and color without having to dig through store shelves or racks.

I have a new favorite online shopping experience after tonight though, and I have to share!

www.zulily.com is a daily deals site with items for home, baby, women, and children. It has great toys, fun personalized gifts, and cheap shipping! I love zulily! You never know exactly what you'll find—the brands they offer change every day. It's like finding a treasure chest full of cute stuff. Membership is free and I know you'll love it, too.

My friend, Ashley, sent me an invitation today because she knows I love Melissa and Doug toys, and there are Melissa and Doug toys on www.zulily.com today. Thanks to Ashley and Zulily, I officially started my Christmas shopping today. Yeah!

I picked up a couple of these fun Chocolate Sundae sets from Melissa and Doug for only $19.99 (regularly $40).

I also found these great personalized plates for $24 (normally $40). Perfect for family friends or those "hard to buy for" co-workers. (I don't have any "hard to buy for" co-workers.....I'm just saying....).

You've got to check it out! I really am curious about your overall opinion of online shopping...good, bad? What do you think?
