We went downtown to my husband M's office holiday party on the weekend. It was fun mingling with his co-workers, some of whom are personal friends after many years. I was talking to these 2 ladies for a bit and it seems they do a lot of online shopping. A lot of places have free shipping if you spend over a certain amount and it saves time and is very convenient. One of them said she does a lot of bidding on Ebay and gets great deals on quality items. Do you shop a lot online? It makes sense, but I don't really do a lot of it.
K has exams at his College this week, stressful days, amidst all the seasonal preparations. He has a learning disability so I am very involved helping him study. We will welcome the holidays! It's also time to register for the second semester and looking at all the new courses is a bit daunting. We have to decide on the right course load. And daughter L will be home from school in a few weeks.

Glad you enjoyed the party. Online shopping is a big help for people who don't have the stores they need nearby. Valerie
Last year, I gave away scarves and neck ties from India. This year, I am giving away cans of macadamia nuts. Simplicity.
I am doing the Holiday presents online, and I like that I don't have to stand in line or wait for traffic. I also earn cash back shopping online, so it's really great.
Sounds like you had a lovely time at the party. I do some online shopping, but not very much. I like being out and about, circulating amongst the people, and enjoying the sights and sounds.
I do a lot of shopping online but not so much during Christmas time - it takes a lot of the fun out of it...I enjoy going to the stores and Christmas shopping :)
I do quite a bit of shopping on line,easier when the weather is bad.
Sounds like a lovely party.
Office parties are fun. You really get to see what people are like out of work.
What a beautiful photograph! I do a lot of shopping online, it's easier for me in general. So much to decide on when it comes to school...
I shop online a little bit, it's always fun (and/or stressful) to wait for a package in the mail.
I buy books online (Powells) and I occasionally order clothes from Talbots b/c I can return them to the local store if they don't fit. I've never ordered anything from Etsy or eBay. I don't really trust them.
I have to confess that shopping on line is sure convenient.
