Survey ~ Preference When Purchasing Books {Closed}

[Steph, Serious series addict]

I'm writing an essay for my Comp course on online v. brick-and-mortar shopping. I'd love to get your input, so I've created a survey. It's only 2 questions. The first asks if you prefer to buy your books (1) online, (2) at a B&M store, or (3) both. The second depends on how you answered the first question.

I do ask that you input the date you took the survey and your location (city/state for US peeps and province/country for internat'l), but no other personal information.

If you're interested, please pop over and take the survey. Thanks in advance to all who participate! :D

I really do prefer to B&M but the convenience and price of online is overwhelming.

[Mandy]

Done :)

I agree, Katie. Although, living overseas the past six years, I've been extremely grateful to have online bookstores since B&M are not always available. When I'm in the states, B&M all the way. But, then I have buyer's remorse b/c I know I could've bought the batch of books for much less if I'd bought them online instead. LOL!

Thanks for taking the time to answer the questions! I really appreciate it!

I am strictly online...and I notice my TBR pile is exponentially larger when I see so many reviews, BOM, Buddy reads, etc...but life s short, read on!

[Dawn]

Thanks for sharing the results Steph most people never do that. Interesting that most people seem to do both B&M as well as online.

Good luck with class!

Thanks, Dawn! I thought so too, I'm the same (when I have a bookstore near me) - I like to stroll through a B&M store, then buy online.

Big thanks to all who participated! :D
