One of the shirts, excellent material, came down to like $10. Much better than the prices I would have recieved online. [/quote]
The sales offered in the store are also reflected on the website, well usually anyway. And more often than not, you can probably snag a better deal online. They(generally speaking) often times have ‘web specials’. Which can be pretty sweet, especially when you can save a chunk off of a pricey handbag or shoes… Not that you guys would have that worry but still…

Yes. The web special at the time was like, buy a $40 shirt for $30. Same shirt was $24 in the store…
- shipping
I’m inclined to think more and more online shopping for clothes just isn’t a good idea. I _was_ excited about it at one point. Then I went to the store.

This is the weirdest thread ever.
Shopping for clothes on the internet is just like shopping for anything else on the internet. It’s not rocket science. We all know that Newegg is usually better than Frys, but sometimes you can get a good sale in store, or a mediocre deal online.

Haha, I don’t think I ever thought of that as a direct parallel, probably because I’m not completely comfortable shopping alone in Banana Republic whereas I would feel at home at Frys.
Things would be different had I not grown up around computers I think. 😛

I knew that’d put it in perspective. :lol:
