When shopping, do you prefer the convenience of shopping online? Do you prefer going to the store and seeing/feeling the merchandise before you buy it? Or does it depend on the items you will be purchasing? What kind of items would you never purchase online? Normally the only things I buy online are things I can't find locally or the price difference is drastic between the store and Amazon or wherever else. One thing I wouldn't buy online: I don't think they sell gasoline online (yet!)

I like to do both. I think bigger items would be more difficult, things like mattresses, couches, etc. In the past, I wouldn't order shoes online, but since most major brands and those bought via Amazon allow for free returns, I will even get those.
Bonus Question(s):
Have you ever attended an event such as an Air and Water Show? If so, what was the most memorable/exciting thing you saw? Have seen first. We have a park here that use to have a water skiing show. I was also at an Air show when a group of new fighter jets led in a much older one. Seeing the old and new at the same time was really cool.

I had some of those a couple of nights ago (inspirations, not farts, well I had those, too). Actually quite amusing that a word meaning inspiration is linked to farting.
