im the type of person who contented with my own. i don't like to have a companion in shopping, because i feel i have no freedom and i cant choose whatever i want, i just want to be feel free. I don't want others dictate me especially in choosing clothes, shirts, sandals and etc. how about you?

There are pros and cons to going alone and going with friends. The nice thing about going with friends is that it feels more natural; it feels more like a social get-together than how it feels when you're alone. When you shop alone, it feels just like running errands, but with friends it can actually be fun. It depends on what mood I'm in that day and what my goal is for the day. If my goal is to have fun, to chit-chat with friends, and maybe find some deals - then I'll go with friends. Otherwise, if I want to be down-to-business or if I'm looking for a specific thing or have a lot of trying-on to do (stuff where it wouldn't really be fun to have friends around), then I'll go by myself.

I prefer to be alone while shopping.it takes me a long time before I make up my mind.it takes me a long time to fit the clothes and shoes I'll buy.I prefer not to have anyone slow me down.worse,I prefer not to have someone complaining about my shopping habits.

i agree with you..i also prefer to shop alone instead bring another member with me..so i have more freedom on my choice of purchase..going with friend do more harm to any good..especially on the cost..

I dont mind taking someone else with me while shopping,as long as I am free with that person.Sometimes we are confused about an item so we can ask the opinion of someone else.Also,it can be boring without any company.

I prefer shopping on my own.it takes me a long time to choose what clothes to buy.I prefer to have the infinite freedom looking around stores and choosing which clothes to buy.I prefer to shop without human constraints

Well..if I am going to source for something like a new bag or a new pair of shoes, or a book..anything that I am going to source for my own use, I would rather go alone or only with my husband. When I go alone, I take my own sweet time to look around and compare the prices. If my husband comes along then i would ask his opinion on the stuff that I am sourcing for...but there are times he just prefers not to tag along so I am also fine with that. i do go shopping with my mum and sister once in a while but those times I am not sourcing anything but just tagging along window shopping their bag carrier...it's fun too as it's a ladies' day out...heheh!!

it is good to have a companion for asking the the opinion if it really fits to me or not the thing that i would like to buy, but sometimes i feel that it is also good to be alone when i do shopping to minimize the expenses that might be happen. There are also some situation i dont really like when i have to wait to my companion because they also have doubts if they want to go in the place where i want to take for shopping.

Me,too. I don't like being disturbed when shopping. It's like my privacy. Whenever I bring my friends to a boutique, they would bother me with their other fashion state and I don't like that. I don't let others to pick my clothes.

Yes usually whenever i go for shopping i prefer going for it alone. i dont taking anyone as in when i was with my guy before we broke up he never liked or appreciated shopping he always use to drool behind me as if i am carrying him like a shopping bag with me, it made me feel uncomfortable. when recently we brok up 3 years before i started going with my sister there after, but also find that being a girl she is not at all intrested in shopping much.whenever i take her she sounds so dull and boring that i feel like leaving whatever i am buying and dragging her home. So i have decided to shop alone as its my thing to do what i like, i dont have anyone who will grumble me or force me not to buy this and that. feww at last i think there is no need for any second person in your life forever. happy mylotting.
