    All the news has been talking about lately is how online shopping is so popular and everyone is getting great bargains, but I'm a total newbee when if comes to buying things online. I love browsing etsy, but when it comes to clothes/shoes/bags etc. I have no idea where to start.

    So help me bees! Where are the best bargains? What are your favourite online stores?

    Where DON'T I shop online??? haha... At least once/week I order from Amazon, Ideeli, HauteLook, Zappos... I'm planning on starting to shop at Shabby Apple and DressRush pretty soon... I've also used Bluefly and Overstock in the past, but don't really use them as much anymore. Etsy for special things. Oh, and eBay of course. I *rarely* shop in stores anymore, and even when I could go to the mall for regular items, I usually just get them from the store's website since there's usually better sales and selection (J Crew, Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch, Victoria's Secret).

    @Roux: Ohhhh girl.

    I LOVE shopping online.

    I love Express for awesome cleareance deals, usually they let you know when they have extra percentage off through email if you sign up. Their clothes are my FAVE.

    Also I am an ebay advocate. I have found most (if not all) of my awesome handbags through ebay. I'm so picky that I can find exactly what I want on there and usually at an awesome rate.

    Wal Mart has a really good online photo department that has reasonable prices, unique gifts and ideas, and personalized things that you can't ever find in the store.

    I ADORE Macy's online. You can find some killer bargains, especially on their 'one day sale' days. Last time I shopped online I got a pair of boots, nine west flats, six sweater/shirts, a fedora, a scarf, and a pair of dress pants for 140 bucks!

    I also love JC Penney for housewares and decor, they have awesome prices on curtains!

    There are so many more that I love but I would be here all night listing them. lol

    @brittaful: I'm an occasional Amazon buyer, and how could I forget Overstock?! I LOVE their awesome flat rate shipping. You can't get better than that!

    What's the ShabbyApple??

    Also I LOVE General Eccentric. They have awesome clothing. www.geneccentric.com

    Express, NY&Co, Macys, Zappos and sometimes Kohls. I also order straight from the Lacoste website, they tend to have good sales.

    I love internet shopping, ideeli, hautelook, beyondtherack, myhabit, gilt, ruelala, ivorytrunk, obume, overstock, amazon, woot, dailysteals, that is all I can remember off the top of my head, but they are all icons on my screen that I check everyday.

    @Mrs.tobe: Shabby Apple is vintage-inspired clothing and accessories. Really beautiful stuff. :)

     

    OP, also add MODCLOTH to the list!

    I don't like to buy clothes online since I can't try them on and I'm a bit picky (theoretically I could ship them back for an exchange, but I'm also lazy, so the trip to the mall is worth it rather than back and forth to the PO). For things, though, I love buying from Amazon, ebay, I order all of my computers directly from the company by comp or phone, and etsy is fun for unique things. Almost any store has a website now, makes it easy to shop :-)

    Wow. Thats a lot of places! Thanks ladies! I wonder if any of these places ship to Australia? Shipping cost suck if the item is $20 and the shipping is $45...

    Off to do some browsing I guess!

    @Roux: I know there are some discount sites in AU, I don't remember the names but a few time I got all ticked off when I discovered something pretty I wanted was $80 to ship then I noticed it was in AU.

    I really want to shop online at H&M and it won't let me. Why can you not buy from their US site online??

    Oh, do check www.forherandforhim.com, there are lots of bees posting good things about this website! BTW, I just ordered my wedding dress from them and am on the way to buy three BM dress from them as well.  Check what a bee says about her dress from this site:

    @Mrs.tobe: OOO, that one ticks me off too.  There is not an H&M within 150 miles at least and they have some cute inexpensive cloths.

    My go-to site for online shopping is Amazon.com. Seriously, you can find anything there, and I've yet to have a bad experience with a seller. For clothes, I usually shop at OldNavy.com.
