I hate shopping. I need to replace my DVD player. I know I'll enjoy having one that doesn't skip. But I hate the shopping process, so I've put off getting a new one for months.

Can't you just order it online from a Best Buy store near you and go pick it up? Easy. As long as you know which one you want. That's what we do quite often. Or don't you have Best Buy there? Or order it online and have it delivered. Then you avoid the store altogether.

I've had skipping problems with mine and had the info sent to return it under warranty. Then, it quit skipping. I think it skips because of old, bad DVDs from Netflix. One was cracked.

I hate online comparison shopping also. I've sat down a few times to start comparing BluRay players, and I always give up in boredom after looking a 5 or 6.

The only impulse things that come to mind are jackets and baseball caps - I have a dozen or more of each - but still can' pass up 
ones.
ones.
We must be related, for some reason jackets are just a bit too much to resist sometimes.
