What is the thing that you shop the most? I love buying clothes the most. Then comes the footwear in list. How about you? You like buying clothes, footwear, jewellery, grocery, electronics, decorative piecies, crockery or something else.

CDs! And music related things. Just this week I received my Coldplay shirt and pins and my Decemberists shirt from eBay. I love 'em! After that, it's probably shoes and bags. I'm not very much into clothes, but shoes and purses are definitely a weakness...electronics as well. I just bought a Nokia N95 yesterday for an insane amount of money. Can you tell I pay no bills? Heh! =P

A horrible $730 =( =( There's no carrier support in the US so I had to shell out for the device online. The cheapest site I found was at $644, but it didn't come with a lot of accessories and no insurance. $730 was the best price I could find for more protection and more accessories so I won't have to buy them for more money later.

Thats good you have got all the accessories along with the handset. Now you don't have to wander for them anymore. But the price is really too high. I cant afford so much.

That's good! Buying food for children is more important than buying clothes for oneself. Thanks for the response!

Well, first of all, I hate shopping. It is a chore to me. Also, I don't like spending money because it is in short supply. I would rather not shop and spend money. I am a sucker for books, clothes and sometimes jewelry or, well, a deal. I bought a boxed candle set that had all different types of candles and holders in it. The original price on it was $49.99. It was being sold at my grocery store for $5.99. I couldn't pass that up, but I haven't even opened the box yet. I need to be practical. If I had money I should be buying window coverings for my girls' bedrooms. Neither one of them have any window coverings at all. This is not exactly an easy thing to shop for, nor is it cheap. So, in short, I'm not much for shopping.

Hi friend! The reason why some earn such income is cos of the lack of education and strategy. I mean our parents were not educated and there is not anyway they can be employed in a big organization or earn big. They work as security while some of our mum work where food is being sold. Securities earn low, most especially those who guard people's house. To tell you more about myself, my dad was once a textile worker when he got an accident in the company. It was 1997, then I was 16. The company resigned my dad (I don't really know if they couldn't offer him treatment or not). The accident affected his right leg. Now he can't bend his right leg. My dad later got a job in a private house, but some of the house owners don't care what their securities are going through. That was how we started afresh. I had to go out and work as a teenager in one of the bakeries around to rais money for my education, but I give thanks to God that I was able to complete my high school education. I belong to a group called Youth Advancement Initiative (YAI) and one of the goals we hope to help the world achieve is to reduce poverty. Thanks and have a nice day.

Grocery is on the top of my shopping list and a must. Next comes clothes, books, and I rarely shop for shoes because I have quite several pairs that suits with my clothes and never goes out of fashion, durable and still comfortable to wear(I invest on good shoes), electronics and for home decorative pieces. I do not buy on impulse and I do not spend too much for shopping. I try to buy what is important and what is needed. Splurging comes a very rare occasion but I think of it as a gift to myself. :)

I tend to spend the most on groceries and then books. Those are my two things that I like a lot of. hehe I hardly ever buy the other things, but my weakness def is having everything completely full in the cupboards, fridge, & freezers. Then of course having my bookcase full of books yet to read. It just makes me a very happy girl

I like watching cricket, but I dont play it. Do you play cricket. I play badminton. But I am not so fond of sports. So I dont buy much of sports stuff. You must be very energetic and healthy. Isnt it?

What I enjoy shopping for the most is artwork, specifically pottery. I also enjoy book shopping. I can spend hours in a bookstore. But what I end up spending the most time shopping for is groceries. Not my favorite thing but I somewhat enjoy it.

I think the things I shop for most are clothes, skin care and makeup products and jewelery. I reckon that I buy them more than grocery products, isn't that weird? Maybe it's because I eat out all the time and I don't really need to cook at home and therefore my grocery shopping is near to once a month. To be frank, I should would rather spend the money on clothes and stuff, they just bring me so much fun! Every time after the shopping day, I would feel that I have some new "toys" again!

Sometimes when I go to the mall, I usually go to the home section and then kitchen wares. I love going around these items and taking note what I would like to buy when I get to own a house. I would also take a look at the decors and home furnishing arrangements to see if I could also do it in my rented place. In the kitchenware section, I love looking at baking materials. I do not have an oven yet but someday I would like to be baking my own cakes and pastries.

What I mean is this; shopping is not a common thing to those who are not having enough money. Here in africa, some earn $30 or less. You can see that such earns is not just enough to go for shopping. I hardly go shopping, but when I go for shopping, I do buy clothes. Thanks

I love buying clothes, most of all tops, dresses, and shoes. I also spend money on magazines and downloading music. Though something I have had to spend alot of money on recently for my art course is a portfolio and all the boards to go in it. Now I need to start saving some money for next year for uni.
