I learned on my urban dictionary word of the day that today is Cyber Monday. Can you guess what that is?
The Monday after Black Friday when everyone gets on-line after trudging through Friday's crowds and not getting the job done.
I shop on-line often enough to get a barrage of Christmas catalogs. I bet I'm averaging seven a day.
Who are some on-line/mail order merchants you have had luck with in the past?

Slightly off-topic, but close: on the subject of catalogs, there's a new website: www.catalogchoice.org where you can set up an account and select catalogs you do not wish to receive. All you have to do is enter the cust number they often put with your name/address. Even better, you can put multiple names on your account so that catalogs coming to your kids, ex, etc can also be removed.
My MIL died nearly 3 years ago and we are still getting catalogs with her name on them! We've been in the house 5 years and are still getting catalogs addressed to the former owners... this drives me nuts.
Amazon.com, Birdsong Farm Collectibles, Overstock.com, The Gifted Horse, State Line Tack, igourmet, Tiffany's. It is so much easier shopping from my laptop. :-)
I get catalogs from Eddie Bauer, Victorian Papers, L.L. Bean, Coldwater Creek, Penneys, ackkkkk!
I don't follow much of the hype about special shopping days. I know I spend more time ordering online than I do shopping at an actual store. The shipping is almost as reasonable as the gas spent traipsing to and fro.
Wish i didn't get so much junk mail like those catalogs and offers from insurance and credit card companies.
I have had great luck with Amazon.com. I have even ordered gifts through some of their strategic alliances like Toys R Us. It sure beats trying to fight the crowds when I can shop my bed or sofa.
Is Netflix considered online shopping? Other than that the only other one I have ever bought from is Christian Book Distributors. Wanted to replace a Message Translation that I had lost and the day after the new one came I found the old one.
