I Like Shopping

I like shopping. When I have free time I call my friends and we go shopping or window shopping. Sometimes my mum asks me to buy milk, bread, eggs, cereals or some vegetables. Buying food isn't very interesting, but it can be fun if you do it with a few friends.

I like to shop for clothes. Usually I do it with my mum and sometimes I go with my friends. If I want to buy clothes, I need someone's advice. I enjoy wallking from one shop to another in search of a fancy dress or a blouse or stylish and comfortable shoes. I like picking the best clothes and then trying them on in fitting rooms. It is so relaxing and it distracts you from problems that you may have. I also like going to beauty shops — I always spend a lot of time there testing fragrances and different colours of lipsticks.

I Don't Like Shopping

I hate shopping, but I have to do it because we need food and clothes. I often go to buy grocery in the nearest shop. I don't like going to big stores and supermarkets because they always seem noisy and crowded, there are queues with trolleys and baskets filled to the top at cash registers and naughty kids whining and yelling in every aisle.

I don't understand people who enjoy buying clothes. As for me I only buy them when it's time to update my wardrobe. Trying on clothes is frustrating, especially when it seems like nothing fits right.

Shopping really wastes my time. The ideal kind of shopping for me is to go the the store, get what I want and leave. I prefer to spend my time on more interesting and pleasant things.
