  • Trivago

4/11/17

I am a bargain shopper and make nearly all of my purchases, small and large, online. You see the TV commercials at least a half dozen times a day on how great it is. Because of this brainwashing, I always go to Trivago at least once for travel rates. Funny thing is I've made exactly zero purchases through the site. With a little more investigation I'm ALWAYS able to find a better deal elsewhere. I don't know why I repeatedly waste my time shopping this site.

I started shopping on dealspl.us many years ago and absolutely LOVED IT! It was unique and a lot of fun to shop. Somehow after a while, I basically forgot the site existed. I don't ever see any advertisements for the site and it rarely comes up in a Google search. I miss using the site but have the memory of a 90 year old these days. I may just add it to my Favorites to remind myself its there.

  • eBay

4/11/17

From the minute I was introduced to eBay back in 1999, I was hooked. It was absolutely my first site to go to any time I had a purchase to be made. Didn't matter if it was a party favor, a garment, or even a car. I would scroll through random auctions just to see what was out there. I spent thousands of dollars on eBay during the first 4-5 years I was a customer. However, over the last few years, I often forget it's even there. I go straight to Amazon, Overstock, etc. The primary reason is the site is less intuitive than it was in the past when I used it heavily. Site navigation is not optimal and it takes too long to try and figure out where to go. Being in IT, I am pretty internet/computer savvy. As I think about it, I can't remember the last time I saw a commercial for it on TV. I guess it's just an out of site out of mind situation.

  • Bose

I am an avid Bose customer and have made several purchases with them. The site is extremely intuitive and the ability to interact with customer service in real time online is excellent. I've made a few returns for various reasons and have been able to get through the process online with no hassle. They do everything they can for you with the exception of driving your return item to the UPS store for you. They are fantastic.

Verified site experience

So far so good. Let's see if my order gets canceled again.

  • Kohl's

4/11/17

I'm sure that is misleading, but it's true. Reason being is Kohls.com is going to send me to the poorhouse. I have spent thousands of dollars on the site and the deals are just insane. There are so many more items available online than in the store. This year I did all of my Black Friday/Christmas shopping in one sitting with a 30% off coupon and double Kohl's cash. The Wallet function is fantastic and the process of applying coupons, Kohl's cash, and promo codes is a breeze. A great store and a fantastic site.

  • Groupon

4/11/17

I've made so many Groupon purchases over the last 5-6 years that I cannot count them. I've gotten some fantastic deals and purchased Groupons for products and activities I would have never known about or spent money on without my Groupon daily emails.

  • Home Depot

4/11/17

Any time I need to make a home improvement type purchase, I shop Home Depot. Unfortunately I don't think the website is that great. Backward/forward navigation isn't the greatest. As a person who makes 90% of her purchases online, Home Depot is one of those vendors I would rather just go to their store.

  • Best Buy

I use BB more than any other electronics merchant. The site is intuitive and easy to navigate. The checkout process is simple and quick. I like that I have the option to ship to home or pick up at the store.

  • Walmart

4/11/17

Let me start by saying I am a die hard Walmart shopper. If I'm going to a brick-and-mortar store for ANYTHING, that is where I go. However, sometimes the store either just doesn't have what I'm looking for or online shopping is just more convenient. The Walmart.com site is not just an online version of the store. It has so much more available than you can find in the store. There are things you can't even find in the store. An added bonus is that if they don't even carry what you're looking for, they provide the ability to purchase from different merchant right there in the search. I highly recommend the site.

  • Amazon

I love Amazon. It is my go-to site for any shopping I need to do, even before I try to shop in a brick and mortar store. 8 out of 10 times I shop the price is the lowest I can find. Very rarely do I search for an item, no matter how obscure, that I'm unable to find on Amazon.

I placed my order for swimsuits almost 4 weeks ago. I've yet to receive my order and when reviewing the tracking info, it looks like its still in CHINA! I'm sure glad I submitted my order on the first day of Spring. Hopefully it'll get here by Memorial Day when the pools open.

I'm giving it a 2 star rating only because I haven't seen the products to know what the quality is yet. Hopefully I don't find out I rated it too high.
