How much would you be willing to pay to have someone do your shopping for you? I work at a store, and a lady recently got me to buy some gifts for her from my store. She paid for the items and the shipping and some to me for doing the shopping. How much would you pay to have someone else fight the cfrowds for you?

Personally, I would rather do the shopping myself. If you are thinking of adding this as a sideline, I would charge 15-20% of the price of the items, pre tax. I would probably enjoy being a personal shopper.

I hate shopping, so probably would not be taking this one, even as a hobby for extra money. I was just curious what other people might be willing to pay, to avoid having to shop for themselves. But it seems most people enjoy shopping for themselves.

Quite weird for me to hire someone to shop for me.In case I do have,maybe I won't.I want to personally see and fit the things/clothes that I want to buy.

Yeah, for clothes and stuff you HAVE to shop for yourself, but for other things you could make a list if you wanted to not be bothered with shopping for yourself.

Well,i think some busy people will let others do shopping for them, and they are willing to pay some money for others' labor. But for me, i think it is not necessary at all. Because i am not that busy people, and i don't want to pay others to do such things for me, in fact, the problem forbid me to go shopping is not lacking of time, but lacking of money.lol

I don't think I'd pay someone to shop for me either, unless I was REALLY busy, or physically unable.
