I'm new to this site so i don't know the proper formatting for questions here.
My friends and I were having a debate whether or not saying "I ordered it offline" was a correct way to say "I ordered it online" or "I ordered it off the internet". It seems as though its more of a preference however are they all grammatically correct, and which one do you use/hear more often?
UPDATE
I didn't make it clear enough, when I'm referring to "I ordered it offline" I am referring to ordering something online or off the internet
Answer
Saying "I ordered it offline" might lead me to ask "So, did you order it by phone, or in person?" It would not imply the same as "I ordered it online."
Saying "I ordered it off the internet" means (to about 99% of US English speakers) the same thing as "I ordered it online."
