  • I love online shopping. Only the sizing can sometimes be a bit of a problem.


  • I do like online shopping as you tend to buy the things that you really need and the things that are on sale. It has stopped me from impulse buying like I tended to do prior to having children. Having 2 children 18 months part is enough to make me avoid the shops whenever possible with them!


  • i do for some things but not for others, i much prefer to do my Fruit & Vege at the shops to make sure im getting the best quality but prefer online for kids things!


  • The more I shop online, the more I’m hooked.


  • sometimes for groceries if they have a special deal, also ali express


  • Yes for clothing, accessories and whitegoods. Select the merchants that use Paypal. When you run into issues, they will help to resolve it.


  • I do sometimes. Although I have had a few instances where I have bought something thinking it was one size but came to be another, I had even measured myself prior to being sure! I find when you find brands/websites you can rely on, stick to them. The main online shopping I do are the ones where they have stores I can visit so I know the quality etc of their products. Happy shopping!


  • Yes. Recently I was looking for a particular hair dye that used to be sold in supermarkets but now is not stocked anymore. I found what I wanted online and even with postage it was still cheaper than what I used to pay. It was delivered within a week – fantastic. Just make sure you’re dealing with reputable companies.


  • Yes all the time, I love it, saves going to the shops and there are generally more sizing options and clothes in stock. :-)


  • Yes, it’s wonderful, though it works best if you’re menu planning and do one big shop every week or two.


  • We buy most stuff online these days. Mainly because we can never get what we want in our town.


  • I have shopped online, it’s not something I do all the time though. As long as you use PayPal and thoroughly check who you’re buying from, it’s all good, some money to be saved for sure!


  • I love online shopping. So convenient and plenty of bargains to be found, When buying clothes I generally only buy from retailers that allow returns to stores (i.e Myer, Target) so that if the fit isn’t right I don’t need to post items back and instead can return them in store.


  • I love online shopping but I always make sure there is easy and straight forward exchange/refund policy especially for clothing because although you can buy based on measurement some clothes fit differently. I love the convenience and that I don’t need to drag four kids around the shops.


  • Yes I do and I love it. You can get some great bargains


  • When my kids were little I did Coles online shopping as it was easy & convenient. I still do a lot of online shopping for clothes, books ,toys etc which saves time & delivered straight to my door especially at Xmas.


  • For groceries? I have in the past with both Coles and Woolies and love it. Convenient, easy, and I tend not to ‘impulse buy” and have time to search for specials more than in store.

    I also use online shopping for birthday and Christmas gifts – especially Christmas as it saves being in the city during the crazy Christmas period!


  • I love online shopping because I hate going to the shops. They are great, just make sure they have a good return policy in case things don’t fit. Also if it is an expensive item or an overseas item, sometimes its worth getting postage insurance, doesn’t cost much, and has come in handy over the years for me a couple of times.


  • I do all the time. Having a newborn and a toddler there is no better way of shopping at the moment. I do that not only for groceries but also for clothing and few other things.


  • I used to shop online at Coles but now that I have it 3 minutes walking from my home, there is no need anymore.
    I buy something stuff in ebay. A wonderful way to discover great deals.
