  • Amazon

12/8/10

I love Amazon. It so much more than just books now. I've purchased boots, drug store type items, food items, electronics, kitchen items and yes books too from Amazon. All at great prices and usually with free shipping. I can't recall single issue I ever had with an Amazon purchase or an Amazon Marketplace purchase. On more than one occasion I've been shopping for an item on a different site then I'll check Amazon just for comparison and Amazon is the cheaper option. Plus I love it for online movie and tv show rentals/buy. It has a more current slections than Hulu.com. If you haven't checked out Amazon in awhile, you should take a look.

Red Envelope is a great site for gifts, especially for nicer, higher-end items. However, they have wonderful options for all price ranges. Everything I have ever received or given as a gift from Red Evenlope has been a big hit. Recommend highly!

I have shopped at Cafepress.com a few times. They have a stock inventory and you can get customized items as well. I've only purchased from the stock selection. Lots of witty and humorous t-shirts. I had no issues with the sales process or shipping. My items were always received in excelllent condition. I would recommend this site.

  • Target

12/7/10

It's no surprise that Target.com is identical to the brick and mortart version. I do like that I can find items online that I can't find in the stores. My quibble is that the site doesn't seem to mirror the sales or discounts that are available in-store. I only use the site when I can find what I need in-store. Target is really more of a sensory experience for me and using the site kind of takes away from what makes Target great.

  • Walgreens

12/7/10

I've used Drugstore.com many, many times over the last few years although never for prescriptions. I usually shop for drug store type items such as bath and beauty products, vitiamns and supplements etc. Overall, I find the site easy to navigate and well-stocked with the items I like. They carry a mouthwash that I haven't been able to find in in stores for the last year or so. It great for those hard to find favorites. I do recommend that you comparison shop if possible. I bought Alli from through the site once only to find afterwards that Amazon carries it for $20 less plus provides free shipping. Other than that, I've had positive experiences with Drugstore.com.

  • Etsy

12/1/10

I used Etsy for the first time last week. I made two purchases both of which were processed and shipped promptly. The Christmas cards I bought are adorable and I can't wait to send them out. Great quality. My body butter will arrive this week and I look forward to using it. When I had questions prior to the purchase, my questions were answered quickly and with the utmost courtesy. I plan to do my holiday shopping on Etsy in an effort to support small businesses. Please note that every seller is individual and unique so I could've just as easily had a crappy experience. If I did have bad customer service or shipping issues, I'd blame the seller not Etsy.

  • LivingSocial

Livingsocial.com is just like Groupon. You sign up and select your location to receive emails with discounts on services and items in your area. I've used it several times and have gotten amazing discount on a two night stay in Big Bear CA, wine, and massages. I highly recommend it to everyone.

  • Groupon

12/1/10

I have gotten some nifty discounts on wine, facials and yoga classes on Groupon. I'm fan and recommend it to my friends. Not every discount that comes through is one I want to use but that's not an issue for me. The ones I do use provide sizable savings on services or items that I wouldn't be able to afford otherwise.

  • Restaurant.com

12/1/10

Fool me once shame on me but never again. I bought the Restaurant.com gift certificates on the recommendation of a friend. As another reviewer pointed out, these are NOT gift certificates. They are discount coupons. My first disappointment/frustration came when I began looking for restaurants where I could use them. If all you eat at are fast food/low-end chicken or mexican food joints then you're all set. When I did find a place I liked that was part of the program, I discovered you don't just take your cute little plastic gift card in to be swiped at the time of the meal. You have to go to the site and then print out a coupon to take with you. That's fine if I'm at Red Robin but I was a bit uncomfortable slapping a coupon down on the table of an upscale eatery. And yes, the exclusions on these coupons are OUT OF CONTROL! I have used only one of the three $100 cards I purchased. I just don't have the energy to jump through the hoops that Restaurant.com requires. On the bright side, I only paid $16 for them so I'm not out a significant amount of cash.

In my opinion, great for families with young kids trying to save a few bucks and are willing to do what they have to for the savings. Not for couples or individuals looking to save on a high-end dinner.
