Hahah. xD @@ title.

Okay so lastnight, I got an extreme urge to eat Pocky. (my friend got me hooked on it, my mom likes it too. It tastes pretty damn good for being a little stick covered in different creams. o3o)

I ran in the living room and went.."Mom, can I go shopping on the internet for some Pocky?" Ofcourse, she already knew that I'd pay her for it. I had enough cash sitting with me, just the fact that I'm lacking a credit card.

So I ordered a shitload of pocky. I got:

1 box of Strawberry
1 box of Chocolate
1 box of Tahitian Vanilla
1 box of Milk
1 box of Almond Crush
1 box of Pudding
1 box of Lemon

I was practically drooling. It may not be here till the middle/end of this coming week, but hey. xD The total came to like $16. ;P

Do your parents let YOU shop on the internet?

I don't shop on the internet often. I just pick out what I want and she does the rest with the whole payment thing. xD <3 //spoiled

If they let you shop, what have you bought?

I've bought a lot of books and games and copics and a tablet and other stuff off Amazon. My mum doesn't have an issue with it as long as I pay her.

She doesn't want me to buy pixels, though.
But now I have a debit card and could donate to Mene if I wanted. : D

OH YEAH, my mom let me order my tablet off of the internet too. Ofcourse, I forked over the $100 as soon as the order was finished on the internet. xD <3

Haha. I have some extra change sometimes from my hobby, which is autograph collecting. I'll have like..$7.50 left or whatever so if I wanted, I could certainly donate to Menewsha. <33

My mom will only let me use the site if it has paypal, which sucks for me because I really want some Threadless shirts. D':

Alas, I'll probably end up getting a pre-paid card because there's quite a few things I want that I just can't get here.

Like see, there's some things that I'd have liked to have a long time ago that they didn't sell in stores anywhere where I am.

So that's why, I RARELY, order things off the internet. If it's like Pocky and it's unavailable where I am, I may order it sometimes. xD

Eh I'll just wait till I'm old enough. Then get myself some kind of card. xD

8D~ Man do I want some Pocky.

My parents would never let me shop on the internet, since I don't have money, and an allowance is non-existant to them. So half the time I skip lunch, save the money and give it to my sister so she can buy CD's or shirts for me.

I don't get allowance either. It doesn't matter to me though. xD

Every so often, I take out a bit of money from my bank account. :3

My parents never let me shop off the internet (No credit card -_-)
But on sites like this and Gaia if I ask I can send in a money order. ^.^

Hehe my mom just says..HERE IS MY CREDIT CARD, GET WHAT YOU WANT.

And forks over the credit card. I don't order often so she couldn't care less.

Speaking of which. I should send in some monies for Mene. =D

I hate shopping on the Internet.
Absolutely hate it.

I need to be able to physically hold the product in my hands and make sure that it is exactly what I want. Even if it's something like a book that I'm dying to read, I'd much rather go to a shop and actually purchase it myself.

Maybe it's my paranoia about identity theft over the web, or the fact that I hate paying with plastic, or that shopping is one of the few excuses I have to go into town, but I've never seen the appeal of sites like Ebay. Ah well...

The only things I've brought on the internet was a Naruto Leaf Village Headband in the Summer 2 years ago on Ebay and some beanie babies before that. I've brought things for Gaia, Habbo, Maplestory, and Subeta. I'll probably buy form here too! x-x They don't care. At first they are like its not real but now they are used to it. :3 Oh but my grandma buys stuff online. For my brithday she got my favorite movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off Bueller... Bueller... Edition. :D Now I want to go on Ebay.

They let me if I have the money for it, or if it's something practical, like clothes I need. But usually I buy CI's and stuff, if anything. I don't really have much else to spend money on. <_<

My Mom only allows me to shop the internet when I have gift cards for that site.

I wish she would let me but CIs online, but instead I'll be sending my money via. post.

I shop on the internet regularly, my parents don't care, or really notice, because I use my own card anyway.

Before I got it however I was allowed to use theirs as long as I gave them the money and it wasn't something completely stupid.

I'm allowed to shop on the internet if I pay for the stuff myself. I'm supposed to be setting up my own account with my bank card so I can pay for stuff myself. But there's still always the bank of mother to pay for things for me seeing as she has no idea how to shop on the internet.

Yuh. That's how my mom goes. I can buy stuff online when I want to (which isn't often. I think I'mma get some more books off of half.com though), but if it's something like a 9-tailed whip for no reason, or a pack of darts that I have no use for, she'll tell me no. Not that I'd buy something stupid anyways. xD

you know you could just buy a bunch of pocky from practically any asian market (don't try green tea!!!) (>_<) AND I BUY COSPLAY ITEMS OVER THE INTERNET oh hey oops caps i'm too lazy to re type it so I'll just type an excuse that twice as long as the mistake because I'm weird like that

Asian Markets? Where I live? No. D: We don't have any of those anywhere near here. There's one maybe 7 hours away..but that's about it. I would if we had one instead of paying shipping. xD <3

There's a Japan market over in Bethesda, so it's not too far from me. It's a place called Daruma. They have some really cool stuff there, including Japanese ramen flavors. Like Curry and Fish cup noodles. It's really cool. =D

I like eating foods from other cultures and stuff, certainly. But it's impossible for me to buy anything unless it's off the internet since there's no Asian or Japanese markets around here. >_<

OH! I want to buy some Ramune.

I always shop online. ^_^ ever since i got a credit card and now a bank card. I even order for my sister and other stuff. Its fun but I cant over do it.

Well I've got my own PayPal account and my own source of income, so it's not really up to them anymore ^^

Yeah, I shop on the internet sometimes. I've ordered a ton of used CDs, and a used book. Stuff from catalogues, too. ^^
I also ordered from Hot topic two weeks ago, but they STILL haven't even shipped it. >: Mom's going to call them about it this Monday. I want my stuff! D:

Mostly, I only order online if I know I can't get anything like it in person at a store.
Cause like, if you go to say, target, you can buy a bracelet for say, seven dollars.
If you order it online, you pay seven dollars, but you also have to pay about three to four dollars in shipping and handling.
So you save four bucks just by going to the store.

Exactly.

If it's not available at a store anywhere around me or anywhere I'll be going, I will order it off the internet if I REALLY REALLY REALLY want it. If I don't, and it kinda doesn't matter, I'll ignore it.

You just save money if you buy it from the store anyways. o3o

Damn Hot Topic! D8<

Yeah, I only order things that I REALLY REALLY want. Like you said, if I only want it a little, I won't bother. I'll just look for something similar in a store.
Normally, what I do, I'll look at something, and then wait a few days. If I still really want it, then I'll order it.
So mostly I order David Bowie shirts. XD That's actually what I ordered from Hot Topic. A David Bowie tank top dress thing, and a David Hasslehoff pin. (their pins are like, a buck, so it's silly to order them by themselves, since you'll be paying more in shipping than for the pin itself. So I waited until I had something else I wanted to order)

Yeah, I'm worried that I won't get the thing I ordered. When I ordered it, there was only a few left. Like, originally, I was going to order it in a small. I found it one night. The next morning, I looked, and all the smalls were gone. So I ordered a medium. I hope they didn't run out of those too. D:
