maybe two years ago,my answer to this question was "yes".but now,i don't like go shopping with him.one of my friends said"before get married,i wanted to go shopping with him ,but now i want to go shopping with his purse " so interesting.but besides laughter,we can find that change. my husband looks tired when he gets in the shop.sometimes ,he will stand out of the shop then ask me to inside have a look. i don't like that. at last,i like go shooping alone. how about you???do you like shopping with your husband???

Hi Lingzi, i am not sure if i will like to shopping with my husband after i get married. But it seems that my bf likes shopping more than i do. Every time i went shopping with him, i am the one who get tired and don't want to move. Ofcurse when we were not shopping for clothes. He likes the electronical product, especial those new one. I am just not interesting in that. But i am still happy to go shopping with him. Not sure if that will change or not.

Hmm...going shopping with my husband is quite okay until I hear him says enough already let's go home. Because when he says that usually I am not done yet. I like to take my time to compare prices, look around at things at the mall. So if I need to source for some things I would normally go on my own so I can take my own sweet time but going grocery shopping with my husband is nice as he would carry the heavy loads...LOL !!!. I am not so lucky like your friend who can go shopping with her husband's purse. My husband's purse does not contain much cash and besides with the supplementary credit cards I have, even if I use them a lot , when the bill comes, I would have to pay for it anyway...so shopping for me is done with extreme caution as we have a budget to meet every month.....in a way it's good.

I will say "no" Firstly ,I don't like shopping,and if I need buy something,I'll go directly what i need,I'm tired of spend time to see the other things,It's a waste of time for me . But my hubby is a very fastidious men,he likes choose a thing from this shop to that shop even though things is satisfy at his first glace,so ,the result is we're sailed about the all day but bought nothing.that makes me very ungry and tird. Luckly ,he seldom go out shopping ,and i arranged what we need the most of time.hahaha..

I used to like it when I was young,but now I would rathter not.For one thing ,I know for a certainty that he hates it.AS you had said what is the point of making him wait out, and hurry ourselves[we women would tend to keep looking , looking at things whether we intend buying a thing or not]?So, I don't mind looking a the shops alone. I like to go shopping with my sister or sisterinlaw.

Not really lol. Lately I have been using coupons to try and save us money. Hubby hates my coupons b/c sometimes they do cause problems. One will beat and he starts walking away it drives me crazy. We also end up spending more when he comes to the store b/c he will buy it if he wants it and not really pay attention to the price. I would rather he stay home with the kids so I can get my peace of mind at least once a week but this past weekend when it was time for me to go he says I'm coming lol. I even told him I would be using coupons.

Oh yes, before marriage, our beaus are there to give support and hold our bags. They will even take interest in our shopping. Post marriage, No No. They feel it a big burden to come shopping with us, and tell us very plainly that shopping is a bore for them, as they have to keep waiting till we choose the right stuff. No interest at all. Even if Im shopping for him, he does a quick look and buys what he likes, not like us, looking at this and that and jbuying the cheaper and better stuff. I now prefer to go alone and shop. This way, I can take my own time and no worry of him waiting and getting bored outside. Cheers.

My hubby is now my ex, but I used to hate shopping with him - he was so rude to the other customers! One christmas we went to the local mall - the lifts there are big so trolleys can use them. Anyway, we wanted to go from floor 1 (where the cafe was) to floor 5 where the car was, only the lift had filled with trolleys from Waitrose on floor 0. The doors opened, he went to go in, saw the lift was already packed, and shouted at the top of his voice,"Oh great, they've turned it into a bl**dy goods lift now!" before stomping off to use the stairs. It was actually quite funny now I think about it, but we never went shopping together again after that.

I never like to shop with my hubby, whatever I like to shop, he doenst liek it, he doesn't even pretend enjoying it, so I don't like to shop with him at all which I don't care as long as I get to shop. But I don't care if he wnats me to shop his stuff with him. (It is a little selfish but it is okay...)

I love shopping with him but you know men they don't care for shopping very much unless they have got money to spend. If we had money to buy new furniture, clothes, electronics, and kitchen appliances he would be happy to go. Now he comes sometimes but is never really thrilled about it he helps with the baby while I shop for groceries.

I'm not married to my OH, but he's actually pretty good to have around for shopping - his mum and sister both agree too... He tends to be able to spot things that will suit us that we might not have considered ourselves and never looks tired or fed up of it, he's very tollerant of a woman's right to shop! (I think his mum and sister have trained him well!)

Yes, I do like to go shopping with my husband. We have a really good time doing it. When I use to go shopping by myself, or with my sister, I always felt guilty for spending so much time away from home. It use to be a every Saturday thing, with my sister and my Mom. We would leave the house at 8:00 am and return around 5:00pm But in 2006 I stooped working outside my home, and started doing everything with my husband, best thing I have ever done. He's my sweetie, and we enjoy being with each other.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! Um...no. I do not like shopping with hubby. Unless it is a shopping trip that involves something we are both looking for together, like furniture or decor for the house. Clothes shopping - no way. He goes on his own when he needs stuff, I go on my own when I need stuff, and that is that. I will buy things for him sometimes, but I don't even invite him along. LOL He would be bored out of his mind anyway. He is very much a man's man. I doubt there is an ounce of femininity in him at all.

Hi I am not married but I do not like going shopping with a guy. The reason to this is because they rush on everything and its just too dificult for me to make decisions. Regards Thanusha

I hate shopping with my husband. He walks to slow. I am not a window shopper or browser, I prefer to get in get what I need and get out. My husband just walks a lot slower than I do and he tells the kids that I am always walking in front of him so that people wont think I am with him, or he tells me act like you are with me and slow down. I cant stand it, by the time we mosey ever so slowly through the store I could have gotten everything in the cart checked out and loaded.
