1. I work abroad and am usually away for 3 months at a time. I do buy things online and have them shipped to my sister's house. Things I buy - clothing, DVDs, toiletries, books, etc. I do this because I rarely have time to go out and buy things when I am home in the US, so shopping online saves me time. I also purchase gifts for birthdays, Christmas, etc online and hvae them sent to the recipients address.

2. I have never shopped online in the country I am living in - mainly because of limited online shopping and security. Though I do buy airline tickets on line in these countries.
