Where do you normally shop?

It depends slightly on what sort of shopping I’m doing. If I’m just doing the groceries, I’ll go to the supermarket, but if I need a little retail therapy then I generally go to the retail park where there’s every sort of shop available and I can window shopto my heart’s content.

Typically I do the shopping at the weekend. There are times though when I’ll pop out to the local corner shop or newsagents if I need a paper or a bottle of milk.

Have you ever bought anything online?

Yes I have and I shop online fairly regularly. I do my grocery shopping online nowadays because it’s much more convenient to have it delivered to your door isn’t it? And you get a discount if you use your loyalty card. But I still prefer to shop for clothes on the high street. I prefer to try things on before I buy them.

When was the last time you bought a present for someone?

I guess it was for my wife’s birthday – that was just last month. I got her flowers of course but then I also got her a ring – it was an absolute bargain as it was in the sales.

Thích hay không thích

Do you prefer to shop in big stores or small shops?

I mostly prefer to shop in department stores. You get a much better selection there and the customer service is generally much better too. Sometimes I go to small boutiques for clothes shopping – it can be more fun.

Is there any kind of shopping you don’t enjoy?

To be honest I dislike most shopping. When I need a pair of shoes I just buy the first ones I see. When I was younger though I was a bit of a shopaholic and went on shopping sprees all the time – mostly for music and gadgets.
