I think online shopping can have a huge toll on our economy in good ways and bad ways. I tend to do a lot more shopping online these days then I used to. But do feel as though I have a certain responsibility to to make a trip to the common store. I think Americans must balance between their purchases online and their trips to the store.

When I do my shopping, I do not have one way I prefer more than another. If I am buying something expensive, then I will usually look up prices online and try to find the least expensive rate. Whenever I am buying something online, I do not tend to think of the security issues online. I usually believe that I am dealing with a secure website and nothing can happen. I now realize that this not true. I need to start thinking twice about the information I am sending over the vast web. I love when I am Amazon shopping for a book or a movie and get a list of books and movies that the website offers for me that I will like. I usually end up buying another purchase for them of a book or movie I did not know existed and I end up loving it. However, the Internet cannot always get you in the “holiday mood” no matter how much Christmas music you play off Pandora.
