Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday. Today’s question is:

What is your favorite store and/or online site for holiday shopping?

My favorite would have to be Target and Ikea. However, since we don’t have those stores here in Hawaii, I’m always shopping at Amazon.com.

If you’d like to play along, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants!

    I don’t use online shopping… hardly ever unless I have to.. I would rather have something in my hand when I buy it instead of having to wait for it to arrive. Sad huh!

    I don’t really have a favorite online store, it’s just where ever I find the best deal and/or find what I want.

  3. i don’t have a favorite but i tried amazon before. i usually don’t shop online or thru a catalog, because i find myself always disappointed when the items arrive.

    I don’t shop much online, if at all – I like seeing and touching what I’m buying in person if possible. I shop mostly at Target, Kohl’s and Meijer (local to the midwest). Sometimes at WalMart too, but not as often.

    I’d have to say Amazon.com. I love books! But I’ve actually done a lot of my Christmas shopping from there. I love buying on line. You have to be careful, but it makes it so easy. Plus, the only store I have in my small little town besides Walmart is Bealls and it’s about the size of one department of a real store. :)

  9. For stores, I prefer Target. For online, I shop at Amazon.com, Target.com, Lands’ End.com, and my friend’s store, The Wren’s Nest.net.

    As you can see, I prefer online shopping!
