How long does it take you to shop?For me, I am in and out. I get what I need and that is it. So maybe about twenty minutes.
I never buy things that I don't really need. Sometimes I like to browse (not buy) if I am with my friends hanging out for the day.
And here's a question for the men (assuming you're a heterosexual man): Does it annoy you when your girlfriend or wife take too long to shop?

Please answer truthfully.

I've never been a big shopper. I usually go to the store because I need something, very rarely do they have a plethora of items that fit me and draw my attention. I think my taste is eclectic... I do like going to thrift stores, because when you see $0.99 as a price for a large shirt, you know you are getting a deal.

Browsing with my cousin was always a blast, trying on ugly clothing over my clothes only to discover I actually had a real nice dress. Weird pattern, beautiful on:)

But I don't like to spend money on clothes. I always think there are bills that should be paid, I'm a stickler with our funds....

It depends...during holiday season I usually shop for about 4 hrs in the mall. When it comes to buying just what I need it will take me up to about 30-40 minutes cause a particular item that I need is not necessarily the best quality so I need some time to think, compare with other stores, and then decide. Now if I am with my 2 daughters who just love shopping...it takes them about an hour or so to shop. I don't usually shop for myself when I'm with my daughters. There will just be too much arguments on which store to go first. lol

I'm pretty much in and out. I usually end up buying things that end up not fitting right or are uncomfortable because I rush out of the store so fast. But ya I dont understand how people can just walk around and look at stuff all day. So yes it is annoying when a chick takes a long time to shop.

I like to take my time and shop when clearance shopping. Don't let me go in t j max when they have a sale. I will go isle by isle and get my cart ready. I love to buy stuff that is dirt cheap. So I can take all of a few hours in these stores.

hi:)

for me when i go shopping i plan what stuff will i buy and list them down on my organizer (actually it's really diffrent if you shop alone or with hubby or with your child/children the more the merrier..and the more the expenses LOL lol) if i have the list on me and it depends also on the volume if it's grocery i can do it for a 10-15 mins. (just our primary needs) but if it will be a real shopping for our new clothes and stuff for my son my son and hubby i guess half day will be alloted for this one hehe like yours too all of them are for checking and weighing what's the cheapest thumbup:D. am more on a window shopping first and if i like some i list it down and check in other boutiques wink

that's it!:)

happy myLotting!:)
