I like shopping at brick and mortars though. It's just a lot more fun that way. I can feel the fabric and try on the clothes (for myself and for my kids). For baby gear, I usually just buy everything online after reading the reviews. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337354 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 23:19:26 +0000 house36 337354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both! I love going shopping and luckily DS likes it, too. But I also like shopping online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337306 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 22:44:16 +0000 shopaholic 337306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love browsing &amp; researching stuff online, but only buy online if I can get a deal on shipping or can't get it in a store. I do think once baby arrives though, I will be buying online A LOT more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337211 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 22:01:15 +0000 pinkcupcake 337211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like to shop online, but if it's something like gear, I'll usually check it out in-person first to make sure I like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337187 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:52:31 +0000 autumnlove 337187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>50/50! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337162 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:46:35 +0000 heffalump 337162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hare paying for shipping so I go to the store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337143 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:42:13 +0000 Mrs. Pen 337143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love shopping in person. Unless I see something online I LOVE and need I don't purchase online. </p> <p>I would love to support more local businesses but there are very few around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337140 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:40:46 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 337140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I rarely shop online </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337123 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:35:58 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 337123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything online! I shop remotely and every few months when we go home to the US I pick it up. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337121 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:34:59 +0000 Mrsbells 337121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer to buy clothes in person, because I need to see and feel the fabric and also see the actual size. I dont fully rely on the size on the label because it can be a bit misleading. For gear I do like to buy certain things online especially as an amazon mom member its so convenient just ordering it and having it arrive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337114 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:33:27 +0000 Mrs. Bee 337114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>almost everything online -- clothes and gear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337108 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:31:22 +0000 chopsuey 337108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>clothes I usually buy online. More variety and cuter stuff. Plus it's hard shopping with a toddler.<br /> gear.. the only thing I needed to look at was her infant car seat and convertible seat. Saw them and bought both online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-shop-more-online-or-brickmortar-baby-stores#post-337104 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:29:59 +0000 mrsjyw 337104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>as far as clothes - i think i see way cuter stuff online than i do at baby/kid stores.</p> <p>as far as gear - i need to feel/touch/see them in person, so by default end up at bru/bbb/etc. </p>
