When you are browsing the store, how often do you shop by color?

I actually use that function more than the others.

Usually, it's by brand or collection.  Once in a while, I need something specific and I just go to that item.

I usually spend most of my time stalking the new products section.

I've only used it a couple of times. Both times I was working on a wedding album and was searching for the wedding colors. I have another wedding album to start, so I will be doing it again soon.

hmm, can't say that I ever have shopped that way!  I usually go either brand or theme and match Bazzill cardstocks that are recommended for it

I don't shop like that very often. Unless I'm on the HUNT for a specific color.

Mostly its by Brand or Category. Sometimes Theme. Depends on what I'm shopping for.

I have never shopped by color! I usually find things through the new products section or browsing by brand or category.

I shop by color when I am trying to accumulate cherries.  (lame huh but it seems faster than going through collections)  Other than that, I seldom use the color choice.

When I hunt "cherries/eggs" I go thru brand. So, I do a lot of browsing that way. But, when i'm "shopping" it's by theme or category. So I guess I rarely shop by color.

I am slow one day I noticed all my stuff was by color.  Never noticed it before.

Typically I shop by brand (usually Doodlebug), or by what's new.  

Here recently I was looking by color when I was looking for items with gold foil to go with the Say Cheese 2 collection.  I found that half of the items didn't show up though.

I just used that function when I found out DD was having a girl and I have been shopping here for years.  Nice feature but normally, I am just searching for cherries, filling my wish list and then I order from that :)

I'm a new product stalker also.  I have used the color option a couple of times when I'm trying to restock my paper.

I"ve used the color function when shopping for a specific occasion, like my daughter's graduation, or things like that. I wouldn't say it's my usual MO though.

I actually never use that function.  lol  Wouldn't you think an art teacher would?  :)  Maybe that is why I have so much trouble with my stash...it isn't sorted by color but by theme and I can never seem to find what I want!  Might be time to rethink the sorting and storage.
