What have you bought recently by direct response?
I'm a true mail order junkie, and a very eclectic one. Recently I've bought wool trousers cuffed and cut to my inseam length from Eddie Bauer, a 6-foot ultra-light spin fishing rod from Cabela's, books from Amazon.com, a BlackBerry 8707v, and a world phone with GSM and 3G/UMTS.

Through any channel? I buy continually through direct response. I purchased American Girl Doll Bitty Baby, crib and doll accessories for my daughter for Christmas. I also bought gifts from A.T. Cross and apparel from J. Jill.

Most of my family's direct purchases are made online. Our daughter's favorite site for toys and games is obviously HasbroToyShop.com; most recently we bought Monopoly and Littlest Pet Shop. And we buy just about all of our books and music online.
