Other than amazon and ebay where do you shop online? What sort of products do you purchase? Do you look for good deals or just go wild and spend money money money?

overstock.com. Got all seven seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation for under 35 bucks a piece. And the whole of Red Dwarf, brand new, for under $60.

I spend my LIFE on Etsy. I call it an occupational hazard.

Mostly I'm a bath and body ho, but I've found a couple of great clothing makers, too. Other than that, I buy a lot of bellydance costuming / costuming elements.

I've seen a little bit of Etsy and maybe it was just what I was looking at but it seemed a bit pricey. Pretty stuff though.

I am an online shop-aholic. I can't pass up a deal and I find them, I'm really good at it. And I have this teensy little problem with, um, shoes. *hides in shame* I'm a shoe whore. I have a ridiculous amount of shoes. It's gotten so I actually hide my shoe purchases.

Point is, I shop all over the place. I shop deal a day sites, I find coupon codes and shipping codes and combine them with clearance and sale prices. I belong to shopping sites that post deals every day, all day as people find them and ugh, it's a sickness.

Tell me what you shop for and I am pretty sure I can find what you are looking for at a rock bottom price.

Just say the word and I'm all over it!

I'm freakin bored, I was so looking forward to show tonight and now I have nothing going on and I'm bored. It's sad that it's Friday night and I'm up late playing internet scrabble and watching season 1 dvd's. My life is so boring lately.

I've bought quite a few tees from teefury.com and threadless.com - I also like browsing modcloth.com and fantasising about buying all the things.

But I also have a few websites added in which I get postcards/note cards/mugs/photo albums/other random gift/homeware things from for free (all I pay is postage).

:)

Oh, that modcloth place looks lovely. I shall fantasize as well.

I want so many of the things but the shipping is far too expensive :(

I get all my books from Book Depository. I get all my socks from Sock Dream, and most of my random stuff from Etsy. :)

And i get bored and look.

Sock Dream? That sounds like a great place.

It is amazing. For reals. Check it out if your feet are in need of socks. :)

Oh, I looked. And I covet a lot.

I shop at a lot of stores that sell one thing in particular, i.e. tea.

For more general stores, I also shop Etsy.

Why will it not let me reply to this?

Right. Okay.

*ahem*

Oooh. Where do you buy tea? Is it pricey and fancy?

I think it did, it's just being a wanker for some reason since I got two comments and then the edit.

I have been recently shopping at adagio.com (let me know if you want a $5 certificate as that will give ME points as well - I think I'd just need your email). It is lovely as they sell several different sizes including samples, and I love sample sizes because it indulges my need to try many different things in small increments. The samples are usually $2-3 and make about 10 cups I believe (I think this may be an underestimate on their part) so I think it's fairly reasonable. If you buy the larger sizes it's - perhaps unsurprisingly - less money per ounce.

That place is so pretty and shiny. I think I might order from there in the future sometime.

It is pretty and shiny. I have SO MUCH TEA now omg. I can probably make suggestions, too. :)

My friend that recommended me adagio also suggested teavana.com but I have yet to order from there myself.

Okay! I like suggestions. I probably won't order anything until April but yeah.
