Better to shop in store and keep people employed

I used to be but then I realized I was also being seduced by unwanted so called bargains that just took up good storage space.

I love shopping online but these days I'm not so impulsive

anything that says Sale is not really a Sale, because of the freight you have to pay, and no I will never let myself fall for anything I don't need

I stay away from Sales as it gets too crowded and i nearly end up in a fight so i stay away.

Sale are good sometimes but usually its things we don't need.

Nope they don't even get my attention. I just delete them. I do buy from Amazon with gift cards when I need something.

Sometimes but I try to tell myself it’s only a bargain if you need it

I love shopping online, but also worry about sizes. I had a XLarge size sent turned out to be XSmall, so havea to be careful

Hard to resist isn't it?

I’m tempted to buy too but I don’t as cash flow is limited for mea ATM.

I don't shop online, I look, but prefer to buy in store where possible.

Get an ad blocker or unsubscribe to the emails.

no i need to feel and touch, still buy stuff i dont need but...

Best advice i got was - its only a bargain if you need it

great to get a bargin

Same here so I have had to unsubscribe from a lot of businesses now because it has become too annoying,I mean I don't need 3-4 emails from the same company reminding me there is a big sale on in the one day,I am not stupid lol...But yes I do shop a lot online because it is more convenient although I will only shop with trusted companies now after being ripped off one too many times.

I only buy what I need when I need it,and it’s very rarely online..I like to check out things properly. How do know if it’s cheap crap or good stuff ,particularly clothing.

No I do have self control If you do not have self control,do not open the mail or unsubscribe ,then you will not get the mail

That's why you get 50 a day...mine are all about bitcoin!

Only ever buy what I need

while shopping recently, heard 2 aged women in front of me say...." they were so cheap i just had to buy them, but of course i do not really need them". sounds familiar

Once you look at an online advert, either deliberately or accidentally, Facebook inundates you with sh*tloads of similar adverts.....I never buy from the torrent of adverts but keep to the major sources

Yes.

i by a fare bit of stuff online,just easier but i dont buy crap i dont need,you just have to sift through the offers and ask youself how much will it improve my life or make things more convenient for me,will i actually use it enough to be worth spending money on

don't shop on-line and the physical shops are far from home - some sales are pretty enticing though

A lot of the shops have sales from jan. to dec. offering anything from 30% to 60%,do you think they are not making at least 150% to 200% profit on those sale prices ,perhaps we are all being taken for a ride.

I don't believe its a sale. The price gets inflated then discounted - I have seen it too many times. I buy what I need when I need it and shop around for the best price at that time.

No I only buy what I need and then I try to buy it locally as I find waiting for delivery a massive waste of my time and effort. Anything I buy online I need now so waiting for delivery stops things being done and slows down any jobs I require the stuff for. As for ale Adds I hit the Block Sender option so I never see them. It's one of the big problems with buying Online just about every seller is a SPAMMER and they need to be fined into oblivion to stop them.

No, I ignore the deals

I prefer not to shop online not am I persuaded to partake.

I never shop on line

Yes!!! I’m a total wastrel, but I only buy stuff that I use or eat ….lol. I don’t get stuff and the just hoard it

Laura W I'm with you 100%

definitely not impulsive buyer & certainly not online

I just want to know what on sale, But I do No always buy it, only when I need it.

Guilty as charged! but I'm slowly clawing my way out. I thank God I never got a credit card! I'd be swimming in debt now, if I had one.

I buy in store. Sales are a big con job. If they can sell at certain times of the year why can’t they sell at cheaper price all the year. They just want people to be thinking they have a bargain

Tried it for the 1st time last year, we also bought food on line for the 1st time.

No I am not an impulsive buyer I only buy what I need

I often look but rarely buy. If it is something I have been looking at buying either on line or in a shop, then I may consider it I never buy anything unless it is something I need.

I do a lot of shopping online, but I live in a rural area and it is over 50k's to a large shopping area. Also being on the Vic/NSW border the last year has been very trying.

I don't look at the emails just delete them

I try not to get things I don't need. There will always be sales.

Ummm, there is a delete button that gets a lot of use at those times! Only buy what we really, really need like food and pay the bills and the Sales must just sail us buy.

I generally ignore these emails however occasionally succumb but I never purchase anything I don't need. Only shop online for skincare items.

Only buy a good value. I don't spend on anything that I don't need.

i buy groceries on line because they deliver them right to my door, and i have bought new pots on line but clothing i like to buy in store because i like to try on and feel. everything else in ads i ignore

You can unsubscribe from these emails and the temptation is gone.

Not really, but I feel that constantly seeing those lovely clothes pop up onto the screen eventually gets to you and you cave in, like I did a few weeks ago for the first time. I will have to make sure I rein it in and it doesn't become a habit.

I take no notice of these emails if they come and just delete them. I do not shop on line as I prefer to see and touch items. The few times I have shopped and this was some time ago, I did not received the goods or a refund or the goods were wrong so that was a lesson learned.

I look at the emails but it has to be really good value and something that I or the family need and if possible can be purchased instore.

I don't reply.

I usually miss out because I put things off but I did get a great deal on Prime day from Amazon this year. It was just that they had a deal on something I was looking for.

I almost always buy only what I need, but I do look at the sales notices so I can get the lowest price

Once a year and that’s Xmas time

I receive a ton of them too but I end up deleting them. Generally don't buy from there.

sure would like to be an impulse buyer...Its bad enougth when standing in the local dairy buying milk to resist the chocolate bars...!!!

Due to getting so many emails l start to twitch off and delete

and no I am not for sale.

I get e-mails all the time and I go online when I need something and usually buy more than I needed so you can call me an impulsive buyer

Sometimes I buy online. Mainly I choose I like this and that not that I need it. Then in the end I delete the lot. I am beginning to realize that material things and too much of it is a waste of money especially now in the situation we are in. Hope the younger generation are not too impulsive since they need to tighten their purses more.

I never buy anything unless it’s on sale… If they can sell things at sale prices and still make money then why at earth would anyone pay full price..!

I don't often buy on line but still look at what is on offer in case I see something I want

I used to get lots of buy now emails but unsubscribe is a rather nice feature

I use price comparison sites, some sales aren't sales. If I buy something I get rid of two items in the house (family excluded but I have weighed up the option sometimes lol). If I don't need it I don't buy it.

No I need Niger item's

I do all my shopping online due to being housebound and find it fantastic as a rule. It is easy to impulse buy, but it's equally easy to delete items from your shopping trolley before proceeding to checkout!

Everyday! & sometimes more! The ads on this, and other sites, are often distracting and more often tempting! Trying to curb my many impulsive tendencies, including shopping. Maybe Therapy? Naah....Retail works just fine!

I would go to the places who have the most sales and deals at.

They are all spam to me

I can be an impulse buyer if I have money to spend. I have probably 100 emails myself from my favorite stores, but I try to do it when there is a sale and I also have a coupon and it is something that will come in handy or useful on a regular basis. I have my moments where I get obsessed with certain things and buy, but I am learning that it's not doing much good because of hoarding issues with myself and my fiance and I can't get rid of stuff as fast as he brings it in. Although, I feel if he brings it in he should be the one to eliminate what is supposed to go out. But it doesn't always work that way. I have had to get rid of stuff I don't want to, so now I just tell him not to give or bring me anymore. I am exhausted from trying to keep up.

I try my very best not to give in to temptation. It can be difficult especially when you have time to browse and money to spare, then you're likely to end up buying.

I can be. When I have nothing to spare, I just delete them without looking. What's the point of looking when you can't buy?

I am very frugal. Sales are very important to me. I like to save money a lot so I can use this money in the future for other items on sale.

never. not that many real bargains to be had.... sucker sales

I am not an impulsive buyer - (unfortunately) I never have that type of money - too spend!. However, I do shop online (about once a week) for food, and I shop online (once a month) for household items (soap, detergent, etc.).Edited 29-Jun-21 08:56am

I must be hard. I resist all the promos

No, not any more. I was when I was younger though.

Sales are on all the time - thank heavens I don't give my phone no. to many as I just couldn't cope with the constant harassing. No way would they entice me to buy by doing this.

I'm not an impulse buyer - I'm a tight-@r$#. I wait for sales because I don't like to pay full price for anything.

Not an impulsive buyer at all. Only buy when I am in need of something.
