When you spot something you like, what do you check out first about the item?

well of course the first i would look in is the price. i check the tag how much it cost and if i can afford it or not... lol but if there's no price and i really like the item, and i need to know if i can buy it some other time, knowing tagless items are indeed expensive, i would ask the sales lady how much it cost... then if its really expensive, i make a comment like WOW!!!! how expensive! and then smile... then i put back the item and tell the sales lady thank you and smile at her again. i am way past that shy stage... lol... i am shameless now... dont be afraid to ask prices, sales lady will not look down on you if you cant afford the item, in fact some of them will be helpful and would suggest other items on sale that looks like the one your asking for. there is this store here where i go most of the time and just ask the prices...lol.. i bet they know me already, but i don buy there though once in a while if the item i liked before is on sale, they give like 50-70% discount... great noh?

the price tag and the quality of product!then,before i decide to buy,i will do a round to compare the same item but with lower price!if there no other choice,then i will confirm to finally buy it!

if i do like something,i do check the price tag but like you said i also would be too embarassed to go upto the sales person and asked what the price is.sometimes,i think WTH And go ahead and ask what the price is!it all depends on my mood!

for me i always look at the quality of the product. i examine every single detail and see whether i really like it. and if i do whether the price is there or not i will buy it because its good in quality and good in other ways that i like and so it must be worth it. but if im skeptical i will ask how much it costs but if its out of my price range i will say something like do you have this in green? or do you have a bigger one? some kind of question that will make them say no then I'll go hm I'll look somewhere else then thanks anyways. haha i know im a little weird like that. but hey at least you're not the only one.

When I look at boutiques at the mall,I usually check the price first.next I check the item if it is worth it's price.when I'm vintage shopping,I check the fit of the garment first.then I check the quality-no holes,no broken zippers, and no torn fabrics.I don't usually check the price since I know how cheap the item will be.

I also check the price tag first when I am interested in an item. The price needs to be reasonable enough for me to buy. Or if it is expensive, the item should be worth the price. If the item has no price tag, I don't ask how much it is anymore. Then I lose interest in the item already. I never ask salesladies because it is too embarrassing and sometimes, they are really snobbish. If the tag is hidden, I pull it out then when I leave, I don't put the tag inside the clothes again so that others may see the price tag too if they wish.

I'm at a stage in my life financially that I can afford the finer things without worrying too much about the cost - that is not arrogance or anything it's just stating a fact about my financial status right now after working hard for over 20 years and previously having to watch the pennies. If I see something I like the price wouldn't put me off - but saying that I don't have overly expensive tastes. A little story... I remember being on holiday in India (Calcutta) a few years ago and visiting a new shopping mall. I saw an outfit in the window of a store which I liked but didn't LOVE. It was one of those shops which are so up themselves that they don't put price tags on them, so I went in and asked one of the assistants how much it was, she said it was ONLY 50,000 Rupees, which is well over £600 in UK currency. I smiled at her and said "interesting" and went to walk out of the store. She practically grabbed me to come back and said to me "ma'am, we have top Bollywood actresses and top models buying their garments from here!" I was very amused and said "I'm not an actress or a model, I'm just an average person! The outfit is nice enough but it certainly isn't even worth half that price to me!" To be honest, if I had really LOVED it I would have considered paying that amount for it. It didn't make one bit of difference to me to be told that famous people shopped there. My cousin who I was out shopping with was rather embarrassed that I had actually asked the price but well if I didn't ask I would have never known... Personally speaking as someone whose husband loves buying designer gear, I don't care if an item is £1 or £100, as long as it is something I like and/or need, I will buy it. I know a £1 item might be of much lower quality but it's not always the case and just because it costs £100 as opposed to £5 does not mean it's the best quality either :)

Hey! I'm not the only one who has that feeling of "shyness" to ask about the price of an item in the department store! I'm glad to hear people being honest ith how they feel. I do feel that way too, especially on item that really look nice and expensive! I think a lot of people do that- look at the price tag the moment they look and hold a beautiful item. Like for example, whenever I window-shop for a dress, I normally look first at the design, then the cloth material, then the size and lastly, the price-in that order!

i check out the price first and if one doesn't have a price tag i ask for the price. also i always want my blouses or tops in a tunic style which means no buttocks showing in one way or another when i wear it because i always have tights on .

Price tag!!! Then if the cloth is worth the price then I buy it immediately however I to admit that I have bought a jacket which was wuite expensive just because I love jacket, my boyfriend says IM crazy when I do shopping:-) But I am and I love doing shopping alone now.

when i go shopping the first thing i check out on that item is the price tag. i wanted to know how much it costs for me to know the right price and to know if my money is enough for that item. because if my budget can not afford it then ill find ways to buy other things with the same specifications of that things or item. atleast i could afford it then.

I always look out for the price tag. It somehow is a coincidence may be, but it always happens that whichever thing I like, it always turns out to be expensive and totally out of my budget. Yes I first check the price tag if I like a product and if the price tag is not there, I will inquire of the price.

its always the price..hehehe.i think thats very common and okay becoz its important that we look at the price so that we will know if its affordable for us once we decided to buy the item.yeah,sometimes there are items that doesnt have prices and we dont have any choice but to ask the salesperson..yes,its true that its awkward to ask how much it costs.but in a department store? i never feel ashamed to ask for the price,only in shops or boutique that looks all the items are expensive and only few are there,hhmmm..i never ask for the price :)

I don't ever window shop. I am poor so I only go shopping when I have a direct idea in my mind of what I want/ need and I don't stray from it.

If I spotted something I like, I would first check for the price tag(if i can afford it or not) If i could afford it then the next thing I would check is the quality (if it's well done or not, etc).. but you know what? most of the time when i spotted something that i like i just don't buy it.. i would rather buy something important such as medicines for my maintenance or food.. i would just let my obsession/craving pass..
