shopping online or shopping in stores

Buying goods online is becoming increasingly popular and could affect shopping trips.To shop or not to shop?That is rarely the question asked around the holidays.What about “To shop online or to shop in the stores?” Now that may be a more practical question.
There are some pros and cons for both online and in-store shopping.
All Those in Favor（支持网上购物者的观点）
1.Online shopping allows you to avoid those holiday mall crowds and checkout lines.Drive to stores and find that parking wastes more expensive fuels while most people are on a tighter budget.
2.It is also available around the clock and doesn’t require any time to get to and from your store (unless you count the few seconds it takes for your Internet to start up).
3.Shopping online allows you to compare products and prices between retailers with a couple clicks of the mouse.
All Those Opposed（反对网上购物者的观点）
1.On the other hand,there are often shipping and handling fees associated with online shopping that don’t come with in-store purchases.
2.You don’t get to walk in the door with purchases on hand.There’s always a delay in receiving your purchases.In-store shopping allows that instant gratification(满意) of having your product immediately.
3.You can’t personally examine the product you are buying like you can in-store.This is especially important with clothing and footwear.
