    Sometimes it´s nice to go shopping with my dad and make him buy more things than he wanted.
    But I like shopping with my own money as well, I just use not to have much money most of the time.

    If it's buying books then, yes, I do love a good shopping spree.

    Any other form of shopping can burn in the hottest flames of hell, now please Clothes shopping especially needs some extra petrol pouring over it so it goes up with nice, high flames.

    You're a girl. It is normal of you to go on shopping sprees. Especially for clothes.

    May she strike you down.

    That aside, I don't really care for shopping, well I like looking for books. And I suppose other forms of shopping would be more fun if I went with people I want to be around and might have some vague notion of how I think. Not that I like spending to begin with... Oh well...

    Gah! Oh well, it's been a while since I've had occasaion to say that in some things I'm not a female, I'm a frog. Women like shopping; frogs don't.

    I've never liked clothes shopping. I've never liked most shopping, and to be honest I suspect the real reason I like book shopping is because it involves books. My boyfriend likes clothes shopping more than I do, and he only likes it if he gets to play 'dress the frog'.

    The origins of my hatred stretch faaar back, to the time when I was just a little frog. A tall little frog, who was always too tall for the clothes made for her age group. A tall frog who was very slender. That necessitated a lot of hunting about for something which fit on height but didn't look like a tent. Then I had the misfortune to collect a load of curves, and the situation only went downhill. 33, 25, 34 = a frog, and also a near textbook British size 10. 35, 28, 32 = the freakish figure all clothes in size 10 now seem to be made for. That is carrot shaped; big top, puny lower half. Size 8 is now all but identical to the ruined size 10. Nothing fits! Gah!

    So not only do I get the outright horrors of clothes shopping, but I have to trail around a few thousand shops and it's still rare for me to find anything which fits anywhere approaching decently.

    And shoe shopping? Gah! again! I've got size 5 1/2 narrow feet. You can get 5 or 6, and narrow seems to mean boat-like.

    Now book shopping? Stage 1: Decide on the titles you want, walk in, check shelves, find they haven't got it. Total time = 3 minutes. Stage 2: Order it off Amazon. Total time = 2 minutes, and money saved. Alternatively, just order it off Amazon in the first place, et voila.

    You're a girl completely, not a frog

    And every boy likes to dress a girl. (not you especially)

    I despise shopping for clothes. I only enjoy shopping for books and computer games. I'm a very business like shopper usually though, it's in-out. I only ever go shopping if I know what I want in advance.

    Like most guys on this earth... I abhor shopping in any form... when I mean shopping, I mean walking around a store or mall and just looking at things for a while.. and then if you have enough money you buy it. I know exactley what I want before I get it...then I get it... and leave very quickly. I do remember going with my ex girlfriend to Victoria's Secret a couple of times though... And I don't consider that shopping.
