Shopping for Christmas

As Christmas draws near, I find myself spending more time shopping online. I never use to shop online. In fact, I become totally frustrated with shopping carts. I hate needing to spend 30 minutes filling out forms just to PAY money to someone. I often leave the site feeling that I am being tricked into becoming an unwilling participant in a marketing survey, or that my information is being collected for a mailing list.

If you want a sale - then take the sale - Don't waste my time trying to steal my information. I know a few other people who feel the same way. Normally, I shop in boutiques and high end stores. Either that - or you end up giving soaps. But, as cyberspace grows, and specialty stores move online, I find myself buying everything from sports and movie memorabilia to house decorating items from online stores.
