I write down the titles, then go online to purchase them for my e-reader.

That's why I think more retailers need to move to allow e-book downloads right there in the store. Then I wouldn't feel so guilty about browsing there and buying elsewhere.
I think that's the premise behind the B&N Nook. You can go to the Brick & Mortar and browse to you heart’s content either on paper or on your Nook. Then buy what you want right there and be off.

Best of both worlds.
