Is everyone going into shops as usual? The ones you can’t get online such as b&m home bargains etc.

Yes I am

Yes. And I'm going to the shops as usual for things I can get online.

Yes.

Yes

Also going to shops for things I could get online...

I go into supermarkets as normal, the pet shop, shoe shop for the kids and the garden centre, so I guess if I wanted something particular from B&M I would go there. But most things I don’t buy at supermarkets I get from amazon. That’s not a coronavirus thing though, I just find it much easier to buy online than drive into town, struggle to park, pay for parking and then find the shop doesn’t have what I wanted anyway.

Nope. Not a chance here in Wales!

Yep. Even stuff I can get online as local shops are barely hanging on!

I am yes. I buy very little online. Mainly Kindle books and some pet things.

Haven’t been to a shop since March. Get everything online.

Yes, shopping as normal.

No. But there hasn't been anything I really need that I can't get online.

There are things I'd rather buy in person (shoes & clothes) but I'm just going to order online & hope for the best.

I'd also like some bedding & I prefer to feel it before I buy it, but again I'll just buy it & hope for the best.

I'm vulnerable though, so more cautious than many I guess.

Yep, lots of different shops for different things. I guess everything I have got recently I could have bought online, but I am certain I would have paid a lot more than 80p for a couple of metres of elastic for example. I also don't use Amazon.

No. I'm not vulnerable and I don't have any issue wearing a mask, but I don't go to shops. I don't need new things because I'm not going anywhere, and I can order everything online. I tend to go to a Supermarket once a week.

Nope, not been in a shop since March.

Yes, of course. As per guidelines with social distancing, mask and hand washing.

Yep. Even if I can buy online. I still go to the shop. All Shops are local to me. So why would I pay delivery of things when I can walk or drive 10 mins to the shop.

Shopping as normal on the high Street and have been for many months- it’s fine!

Yes and I did the whole way through.

I've done all of our shopping online.

It's going to be a weird Xmas and down-scaling of presents seems best. The kind of tat I pick up in B&M etc. won't be missed, I'm sure.

I'll miss going round all the 'shit' shops though!

No. Went to IKEA for something specific but that's it.

I go to the shops although not often as I hate shopping. But if I need something then I try to buy from a local shop.

I try not to buy anything from Amazon other than books for my kindle.

Nope. Not been in a shop since March, apart from a petrol station once for milk for my dad on the way from picking him up from hospital.

Doing more online than usual but also live rurally, so if it was easier id go more often. Still going every now and again. Once Wales is out of lockdown I'll be going Xmas shopping. Got much of it online but like to get all the stocking fillers and bits in the shops, so I'll be raiding home bargains.

Ktp- why don’t you go in?
