I have been buried in work lately. To clear my head the other day, I dropped into a local men's store and browsed the suits, ties and pocket squares and wound up picking up a pair of shoes.
It had been quite some time since I actually hit a brick-and-mortar shop instead of ordering something on-line. I'd forgotten how much I like talking with the salespeople and checking out the fabrics, etc.
I like the convenience of on-line -- it's easier to make time to browse a site than it is to go out these days. And I get notified of on-line sales at Polo, etc. through e-mail and the boards. But there was something to be said for the stately pace and tactile pleasures (and instant gratification) of dropping by the store.
Which made me wonder, how do you prefer to shop and why? Just curious.
