I (and I'm sure many other people) like to buy things as cheap as possible. I do it because I'm poor and need a job but others do it because they are tight.
Anyway can you post some cheap online shops, prefrebly also saying what country they mainly deliver to if. I know of several which are as follows:

DVD's, Games and Music
http://play.com
Very cheap online shop. Reletivly new I think. I recently ordered a CD (If your interested it was the White Album) from them on Sunday, they dispatched it on Tuesday and it arrived on Wednesday.
Lots of places. There is a list here (http://www.playserver5.com/play247.asp?page=delivery) of where they deliver to. Free posting.

Cheap but limited catalogue.

http://www.dvdplus.co.uk/
Cheap. Don't know what else to say.. erm... they sell CD's aswell as DVDs...
Free delivery for UK.

http://www.gameplay.com/
Sometimes cheap, other times better off using different shop.
Deliver's world wide I think. Need to check.

Computer hardware and software
It is best to go between both of these sites when buying components as one is cheaper than the other for some things whilst the other is cheaper for something else.

Quiet cheap. Very fast delivery, sometimes ordered from them and order arrived next day, although I do live near where the company is based :p
I think it only delivers in England but you will need to check.

http://www.savastore.co.uk/ (Previously Watford Electronics)
Quiet cheap. Fast delivery. They have there own cheap computer and component series called Aries which can be custom built to the users specifications.
Not sure where they deliver.

Misc
http://www.7dayshop.com/
EXTREMELY cheap but takes ages to deliver so not good to order from them in emergencies (eg New printer ink cartridge for coursework)
Delivers to UK only.

http://www.kelkoo.com/
Online search engine that searches loads of online shops and shows there prices.
Searchs for Danmark, Deutschland, Espaņa, France, Italia, Nederland, Norge, Sverige and United Kingdom


There are more aswell but I cant remember them at the minute and these are the main ones i use.:D
