It's the middle of November for Christs sake!
Yip, all sorted (well Santas`s stuff sorted) and dont want to go shopping again until next November. Home for around 3.30 then spent an hour online buying stuff I needed from suppliers with said glass of whiskey

Haha, I would normally agree however when it comes to the kids xmas presents I always do it last week of November, get it out of the way and prevent my missus from spending 10x more money and coming home with only half the stuff she set out to get
Amazon - amazon - amazon, haha - in other news, no shark fin next year, yippee - or maybe I'm late to that news and you guys already knew
Howdy fog, all that shopping was done AFTER buying what I could on Amazon

Does not compute ......
There nothing you can't buy online these days. Shopping (in shops) is an activity females engage in to keep the shop workers in employment. Don't get me wrong, it's important to keep the economic wheels turning and also keep people in work. But I think retail shop jobs will be toast within a decade.

Yeah, massive dilemma really. We could have a huge debate about it, but it's not on topic for here. Take it to the cuckoos nest.

You are right, virtually everything can be purchased online, IF you are willing to accept some dullard selecting the item(s) for you, many items I purchase are not suitable for various reasons, quality, faults, over inflated shipping costs etc, not to mention returning items and then finding out those replacements are no longer in stock. Then you have the delivery guys who dont give a flying fcuk if your items are fragile. (as you can probably tell I dont go shopping for the fun of it!)
