I work with a tight budget, so I don’t always have the luxury of buying new. I go to sewitsforsale, shoppersrule, ebay, overstock, joann’s. It’s allowed me to get some great deals on machines and accessories and experience techniques that I otherwise would not have been able to.

Amazon mostly, for other things it depends – often I’ll know that i want something from a particular shop so use their website.
Dec 31, 2010, 02.04 PMby lillyvons
I would say Amazon gets a good portion of my shopping attention for research and buying. I have bought most of my sewing and crafting books from their website using their smaller book vendors to buy new or almost new books; Ebay, Homesew.com, Clotilde.com, shall I go on? What the heck did we do before the internet?

I like Etsy because there’s all sorts of unique stuff there, but I see a lot of other good ideas in this thread I’ll have to try.

Usually I search for a specific item and then look for the best price with cheapest shipping. Sometimes its ebay other times its great retailers that happen to be nearby! Like my local sewing shop in Sunbury!

I don’t shop much online but when I do I usually search on Google, Etsy or Ebay.

Ebay has surprised me on more than one occasion with how useful it can be. Otherwise Jaycotts.co.uk are great for lots of bits and pieces.

i like to shop on ebay and craiglists depending on what i need
Dec 31, 2010, 09.02 AMby melorwil
I always go to my one stop shop Ebay.
Dec 31, 2010, 07.25 AMby mnguye5
joanns.com or michaels.com when they have free shipping offers. I agree with many of the comments below, free shipping is a plus!

I generally google or bing search for what I’m looking for. Most always I end up buying from amazon or overstock. I’d really enjoy that serger! Been eyeing one for a while now, but a tinsy bit out of my price range!!
Dec 31, 2010, 03.44 AMby lildab
For books, I shop Half.com; sewing supplies I generally find them on sale at JoAnn’s; and, other items, I generally go to Amazon.

I don’t shop much on line. I recently bought some books for my husband @ Barnes and Noble. There was free shipping and 20% off on line. I luv good deals!!
Dec 31, 2010, 02.59 AMby Bronteroo
I just bought three new patterns from Lanetz Living! Deals that Matter is another good site though.

Living in a rural area for years meant I did a lot of shopping online from many retailers. For craft stuff I like Fabric.com, Natural Pigments, Fabulous Yarns, Elann.com, G and S dyes, Aurora Silk, Hotpatterns among others. Ebay can be useful of course.
I prefer anything that takes paypal as opposed to credit card. It’s also nice when they don’t soak you on shipping to Canada.

I love Etsy and also Fabrics.com.
Dec 31, 2010, 01.58 AMby coachwife8

I purchase some fabric, books, shoes, music, electronics, vitamins/health products, and documentaries online most of the time. Other than that, if I make a purchase it is in store, on sale of course!

Usually ebay and Amazon, but as a knitter, too, I also love Elann.com and KnitPicks.com. I don’t know how I could have lived without my serger, but it is now 25 years old… so a bright, shiny new one would be oh sooo welcome!
