This morning my wife said that I need to buy a few tops since I need more winter clothes in my wardrobe. I said oh yes nodding without giving much of importance to what she said. She interpreted it as get lost. Well I do really hate shopping. I know she takes good care of me but shopping has never been a pleasurable experience. I usually go at one shop and I 'd try to buy all my clothes from there if possible. And the lesser the time I take the better. Do you hate shopping? © ronaldinu 2008

Yes I hate shopping, but my husband hates it more. Many times i have shopped for him and then had to take it all back. If I don't buy him cloths, he just wears rags and complains. I think he's got my number, don't you?

Yes, I hate shopping. Contrary to popular believe all women do not like shopping. I hate it. I hate going to the store and having to get things or looking for things. I'd rather know what I want, get in, get it, and get out.

I'm a aficionado of shopping!I always go out in the morning and come back with seversl bags in my hand.If nobody will go out with me ,i'll shopping on line,but it's a little unconvenience ,i have to measure the length of my arm ,shoulder ,foot ,and stand in front of a big mirror and image if the clothes fit me well .I really enjoy shopping on line. ...ho ho..

I think most men are like that, if it wasn't for me buying clothes for my husband when he needs them, he wouldn't have any..lol. He'd still be wearing something he wore 20 yrs. ago providing it still fit, and his shirts would be full of holes, and he'd still wear them...lol. He doesn't like to shop either, especially with me, because I make him go everywhere. I don't really like shopping myself, but I do it because sometimes you just have to.

With maybe the exception of shopping in bookstores and movie stores, yes, I do hate shopping. I'm not a fan of it. The only times I'll go shopping is maybe for Christmas or if I need something, like a pair of jeans, or something like that. As I've said, the only places I really go shopping are in bookstores and movie stores. At these places I can spend hours. But that is the exception to the rule.

As a rule I like to go into a store, get what I came for and then come back out. There are those times (not many, though) when I will browse, especially if it's a new store, but, again, I just like to go in and get what I came for.

My husband is the same way.He hates to shop at more than one store. Take him to one place like, Walmart and he is happy as a CLAM. He can do all his shopping in one place.Not just his clothes but all his sporting goods but all his automotive, food, and even go out for dinner at what ever resturant seems to be in their store. He would be in HOG HEAVEN. Then he is ready to go home.

I love shopping! My husband hates it! I wouldn't even think to ask him to go shopping because he dislikes it so much. The good news is that then I can get out of the house, kid free, and do the shopping while he stays home and spends some quality time with the kids.

I enjoy window shopping or browsing or looking for a bargain. But I hate the actual trying on of clothing. I'm not happy with my weight and feel that I have a struggle finding things that fit well and look flattering on me. Sometimes it can be so discouraging. It's also time consuming!

I also hate shopping. I almost always try to avoid it unless I really need something. As a matter of fact, I managed to go two months without buying new track pants for school and believe me... it was time to get new ones...
The only reason I finally managed to get my butt to the mall was because my best friend (who also hates shopping) was coming with me. We made fun of a lot of different pants...

Depending on the occasion, I hate shopping. If I know what I want and what I am going for I always hate it as I can never find the perfect item. If I go shopping on a whim, it seems I find every unnecessary thing I want for myself, my husband, my children and my household! I never have a problem if I "just go". It's only when I actually need something that the shops never have what I need!
Being a woman, it seems that most people think that shopping comes naturally. Actually my husband is a much better shopper than I am. And speaking of shopping...I loathe grocery shopping most!
I hope you were able to find the shirts you were looking for, or that your wife wanted you to have!!

Yep I bought three shirts and two shoes in the span of a three quarters of an hour. I just know what I wanted to buy I chose the same shops that I usually shop into. so it was almost like a hit and run style
