Some people will buy things for festival even a month earlier and some will wait for last minute. Every time festivals arrive, people will buy new clothes, shoes, house decoration and buy food. No matter what festival it is every one will enjoy their self and forget the problems the face. I am curious to know, do you do last minute shopping before festival? Do last minute shopping always happen or only sometimes? Why do you shop last minute? What you buy usually buy when do last minute shopping?

For me I tend to do last minutes shopping. The reason is simply the price usually the product is more cheaper cause the shop have to sell it before the festival otherwise it'll have to wait for the next year. I really can get a real nice price. The risk is you have to make sure 4 or 5 more places selling the thing you want to buy so if one of the store had sold out you had the others.

Yes there are some risk we have to take when waiting to do last minute shopping. Sometimes the weather is not good or the shop didn't open. I think it a good idea to keep think some extra store if one of the store is closed. Usually the store will sell at low price during that time. Thanks for sharing.

normally we don't do late shopping but this time the university closed really late and my bro was also out of city and then we had to rush and we did our shopping 1 day before the festive and it was a nice experience that ended in a traffic jam but things do happen and it was predictable. yet it is a great thing to have fun and you can see faces with urgency signs and people smiling at each other and thinking "oh, we ain't the only one's"

Many people do late minute shopping. Usually many people will remember their last minute shopping. The feeling is more excited because you need to buy all the things you didn't buy yet before the shop close and the festival arrive. Now we can find there are many shops that still didn't close waiting for customers to do last minute shopping.

Some people do like to last minute shopping. They want what they buy is a secret and like you say they also like suspense. I also sometimes do lat minute shopping especially when I want to buy gifts for my family members. Buying too early will just spoil the mood and they will know what I buy.
