Μπορώ να αγοράΣω OR να αγοράΖω.  Is there a difference?

I use various resources to find some phrases for my vacation, and this usually occurs with certain vebs when used in subjunctive if I'm not mistaken.

Both are correct.

"να αγοράζω" is continuous form. 

ex: Μου αρέσει να αγοράζω ρούχα.  I like buying clothes.

"να αγοράσω" is simple (not continuous) form. 

ex: Θέλω να αγοράσω ένα καπέλο.  I want to buy a hat.

Ευχαριστώ πολύ, obviously I am still pretty unfamiliar with the grammar (it is all Greek to me after all if you know what I mean)
