Internet shopping covers so much ground in so little time. You're always seconds away from the next product, or even next store. If you're in a shopping mall like Yahoo Shopping or AOL Shopping, you can jump from store to store in a click. A visit to the mall is a somewhat different experience. I won't debate the fact that a mall has a certain ambience.
Some people just love it.
But, here's what you'll deal with from a time perspective. That probably took a couple of hours, at a minimum. While some people like cruising around malls, others, like me, just want to buy what they need and move on to the next order of business. True, you don't get paid while you're not working. But there are probably other things you could be doing that are more enjoyable or productive.
