For most things I shop online, but I'll be in line at Best Buy on Black Friday for a few things.
Brick and Mortar stores, Paper catalogs, or On-line. Where will most of YOUR Holiday Shopping happen?

Usually my shopping in online with all the crazy dealfinders and such. Yay for laziness!

Last year I began my own new Christmas tradition: I give one small gift to each of my family members and friends, and then I make a donation to a charity relevant to each person.
This year, I've also decided to make every gift a fair trade item. I've bought all of my family's gifts from an actual store (Ten Thousand Villages), and will not start shopping for friends at area craft fairs. Most of my money will be spent on the donation, though, so I wasn't really sure how to classify that kind of "purchase."

Mostly online, except for homemade gifts.

Probably online, but I'm trying to convince my family not to buy me presents and vice versa, it's just wasteful.

Other: I don't do any holiday shopping.

I really prefer shopping in real stores, though that's mostly towards locally/independently owned businesses and instances where service is actually necessary.
For example with the service, I shop at outdoor goods stores a lot (REI, Great Outdoor Provisions) and a lot of the stuff is available online, both from those stores and from other online-only retailers. However, for certain things, like sleeping bags, packs, and shoes, I'll spend a lot of time in-store trying on, fitting, quizzing the sales people on the brand and materials and all that sort of thing. I want those people to be rewarded for the time they spend helping me, even if it means paying a little more.
