OPTIONAL - FOR BEGINNERS: Listen/read the story on SARA WENT SHOPPING, then write a similar account on I WENT SHOPPING
1. I usually do my shopping in Tarnaveni because although there are few shops the prices are affordable and the quality of the goods is guaranteed.
ReplyDelete2. A shop that is special for me is Chic Shop because here you find clothes by different brands, you can rely on the quality of the clothes and also it is so easy to find what you want because the clothes are arranged by colour and category.
3. Shopping is a hobby for certain people but it can be also just a necessity or even a torture ( for example for an overweight person who hates his/her body and does not find suitable clothes). Women like shopping more than men because the society imposes/requires her to dress the family, to put the food on the table and to keep in touch with fashion in order to be pretty, to be as they are expected to be. Also, women have more patience when it comes to shopping.
4. You do not always need the things you buy. Sometimes, in supermarkets, for example, the products are moved so the clients buy other things, things that are not on their shopping list, until they find the product they are looking for. There are also people who go shopping just because they are depressed and want to relax; or people who buy things just because they are at discount.
5. I prefer going shopping with friends or with my family because it is more fun and because I need their honest opinion regarding the products.
6. In my opinion, shopping “live” is better because you can see the products, read the labels and in some cases you can even talk to the producers.
1. I usually do my shopping in Cluj in Polus Center, because there I can find different brands, and I can always find what I am looking for.
ReplyDelete2. I do not have a shop in town that is special for me, but if I have to pick one that will be Leonardo, sometimes I shop there, I like because they have different types of shoes, and one aspect that attract me and I think that the customers too is that the shop woman is very nice and show you other types of shoes that maybe can interest you, but from the same category that you ask it before.
3. Yes, I think that shopping is a hobby for certain people, because there are persons that go shopping every day. Women always like to have more clothes than men, so they have to buy more, also I think that women have more patience when it is come to shopping and they want to try it on almost all the clothes that they find it nice to see how it is look like; but men when see something nice usually they buy it directly without see another shops or other products, it is like the first impression if they like it they buy it.
4. No, I think that we do not need always thing that we buy, but also we buy it because they have a good price, or it’s with a discount price or the typical reason that sometime I will need it and it’s better to buy it now, or it’s so nice or another reason that we give to ourselves, it’s like you try to convince yourself that the product you are about to buy you actually need it.
5. I prefer going shopping with my friends or family because I am very undecided sometimes and I need someone to help me and give me an opinion.
6. I like more shopping in shops because you can see the product, you can touch it and you can try it on, but also I have to recognize that I shop online too because usually it’s cheaper that in shops on certain products.
1. Usually from the big stores because they offer a large variety of products.
ReplyDelete2. Because it has quality products. Merchandise quality and friendliness of staff.
3. A hobby too, but more like a necessity. Because they take better care of them or because women buy for them and for their family.
4. I think I need it, that’s why I buy it.
5. In most cases alone.(by myself)
My favorite shop is Kaufland because that store has a lot of Romanian products, fresh fruits and vegetables, milk and bread, a variety of meats and especially cleaning products.
ReplyDeleteI enjoi the fact that i can pay both cash and by credit card.
Also, the customer service is great. The cashiers are polite and fiendly and they always ask me if i was happy with the service.
Shopping is a necessity for me, not a hobby. When i go shopping, i carry a shopping list with me. Usualy, my family comes with me to the store.
I prefer to shop in a person, in a store, rather than online.
1. Make regular shopping because I love and always found something new to buy .
ReplyDelete2. I like to shop at Auchan hypermarket , it attracts customers because it offers low prices and more .
3. Shopping for me is a hobby that relaxes me . Women do more shopping than men because some men do not like to shop , and women and in pleasure and because there is no one to shop have to make them.
4. Mostly use all the products we buy, but often buy products that are in demand and I do not even use all the time but I think you'd use something , if you do not do gift of a friend who has needed.
5. Shopping not like to go alone usually go with my family because if I want to get something I like people to give their opinion about what I buy .
6. Me most of all I like shopping in stores that you can see the product and you can try it and online is not so sure.
1-Yes ,i shop every day like any other persone, without shopping you can never satisfy your need's or your utilities.
ReplyDelete2- i do most of my shopping at Kaufland ,becouse this supermarket offers a variety of products that satisfy your every need and at the same time your expectations becouse it has a very high quality stuf
3-Yes shopping is a hobby but is can also be a need,women buy more than men becouse they have more pacience
4-yes,othervise i woldn't buy it , i never bought anything that i cold not use another time
5-i like to go shopping with my family as often as i can ,becouse i have someone to advise me when i'm buying something for example when im buying a dress
6-in my opinion ,its best if you do your shopping from stores and not online ,becouse you can see the product.
1. I regulary do my shopping at the supermarket because there you can find a great variety of products and I can choose the best products
ReplyDelete2.A special shop for me it`s ``Auchan south`` because I worked there for 4 years . The coustomers are attract because the shop it`s near the town and it`s cheaper than other stores.
3.Yes.For many women ,shopping is a hobby.For exemple,my mother says that shopping it`s something relaxing,for me it`s a torture because I don`t have patience.My boyfriend like my mother love to go shopping.Women love shopping more than men because they are always fashionable and they want to buy new items.
4.It often happens to me to buy a shirt ,but at home doesn`t fit me anymore.I think the mirror shop was guilty.
5.I prefer going to shopping alone because my friends want to spend many hours.
6.In my oppinion I think the shopping in shop it`s more better because you can try that product.On internet you can find more beautiful products but you can not try and you can have a surprise when you see that product.
1. I regularly do my shopping in the city center because there are numerous shops I can choose from, and all these are within walking distance.
ReplyDelete2. My favorite shop is H&M, it is a new shop, what attracts me is the variety of clothes there, in all colors and sizes. What attract customers is the shining lights and music which make a special atmosphere in the shop , as well as the variety of clothes and good prices.
3. Women are more passionate about shopping, surely because they are more patient, and like to keep up with fashion and new articles. Surely for women , shopping is a hobby. Men loose interest in long hour shopping and clothes trying on, therefore they quickly choose something that they like , without thinking too much about it, and then enjoy a beer in the remaining shopping time.
4. Personally I tend to believe that all the stuff I buy I use or will use, so I don't buy unnecessary items that I don't need.
5. I prefer to go shopping with my sister or friends, as they can help me choose clothing, and share an opinion.
6. Depending on what you buy, I think that shopping online does not allow the client to properly check what they are buying, compared to real shops where you can physically hold the item you will purchase. You can test it, and then buy it, online shopping is not always secure, you might end up getting a box of apples instead of a pair of shoes that you order. I consider that shopping in shops better and safer.
1.The most of my time I spend it in Paris,so I do my shooping in Paris,that is really famest capital in the world for that ones who love shopping.Being a comercial city,even if you don't like spend your time doing shopping,you become an addepted to it.
ReplyDelete2.Usually I do my shopping in a big mall center because there I find always all I need.The shops are placed very good and organized due to your needs.For example Rosny 2 is a small town in the big one,beside the fact that is very large and you find there all the grands,you aslo get an entertaiment place for children and a very big parking with enough place for everybody.The most interesing fact that attract me there is that they organise almost everytime special games where you can win cupons for shopping in certain shops or tickets for food or even the great prizes like:a holiday in Greece if you spend 2000£ in that centrer during 1 years long.Their offersseems very attracting so you love to spend your money there.
3.For certain people can be a hobby but I don't think that is a real one. Most of them spend their time visiting shops just because they get bored or because they like to be in top with the new brands. Anyway if shopping is a hobby for someone it should be done with passione and implication. Women like shopping more then men because they are always there to see what a house need,wget hat does she get or change in the house or family. Everything pass through the women hands.
4.I usually don't buy things I don't get use it,but sometimes if I find a good discount at some products,I buy it.
5.I prefer going shopping alone because Ihave all time for me,I can enter in whatever shop I want and buy all I want and I need whitout anyone critics.For example when I need to buy things for all the family, I like to be accompanied by them, it goes fasterand easier.
6.Thereare advantage and disavantages of shopping online or in shops.For example shopping online is faster and cheaper but than you have to pay delivery taxes which are expensives enough.I prefer shopping in shops, I am addapted of '' I belive the things I see and I touch it ''but I lose a lot of time in shops searching for the products I need.
1. Ussually I do my regular shopping at LIDL. It is a medium market and it is close to my home. There I can find almost everything I need, like bread, milk, and fresh fruits or vegetables.
ReplyDelete2. It ia a shop in the center of town that it's special to me, but I don't know it's name. It is a shop with gifts and jewellery. I like it because there you can make personalized presents for anyone. Also, the shop has a pleasant ambient, because of the music and the nice smell of perfume.
3. Yes, for some people shopping is a hobby, especially for women. I think women like shopping more than men, because they like being fashionable and they are more concerned by how they look.
4. No, I don't always need the things I buy. But at that moment, I consider that I need them, or those just attracts me.
5. I prefer going shopping with my sister or my mother, or just with one of my friends. I think that a good advice is always good.
6. Both of those ways of shopping are good. Shopping online is faster and easier, but it is the risk when you want to buy clothes, to don't fit you. Shopping in shops can be a little tiring but also funier than shopping online.
I usually do my shopping at Promenada Mall - Auchan hypermarket because there I find quality food,electronics and clothing and foot wear for the whole family.
ReplyDeleteI like to shop at H&M because it has a wide variety of clothes and shoes for adults and children at affordable prices.
Oh,yes above all it is a pleasure ,a hobby first,then a need !
Always women will buy more than men because they have more patience ,are more sophisticated,wanting to stand out.
We don't usually buy what we should buy,but seeing so beautiful things we believe that we have to.
When shopping consists of food ,household products,electronics and furniture I prefer to go with the family and when want to buy articles of clothing I prefer to go with my daughter or my girlfriend.
Being more suspicious of the quality they offer on line sites,I prefer to do my shopping in stores.
1. I usually do my shopping in the large shopping centers because there are many shops.
ReplyDelete2.I do not have a favorite shop. But if I have to pick one that will be H&M. There find clothes and shoes for the whole family. The quality and price you find in the store is customer attraction.
3.Yes, shopping is a hobby, but it is necessary. Some women buy more then men because they like to spend more money.
4. No, I don't always need the things I buy.
5.I prefer going shopping with my family or with friends because it is more fun. I do not go alone.
6. I like more shopping online because is faster and easier. Shopping in shop can be tiring.
I am a boy, despite of this I like going on shopping. I like buying stuff from mall. In my town Mures Mall is popular but also expensive. During an year I buy clothes from here, because I prefer quality clothes. Every Sunday, in my hometown a junk market. It is called "Ocico". I don't buy clothes from there, but if I need for example a watch, or a toy for my sister I go there. I don't make shopping a hobby. I buy thing only because I need to. Women like shopping more than men because they're dedicated and they are running for discount and new fashion. Men buy only what they need. I liketo go shopping by my own, because I feel more confortable.
ReplyDeleteI don't trust online shops, because once a friend of mine bought an Iphone, and in the box was an actual apple (fruit).
1. I can't fix where i do my regular shopping, because I don't have a favorite shop. If i find something what I like I buy it.
ReplyDelete2. How I wrote I don't have a favorite shop, but I like going to malls because they have a lot of shops and there I can chose what I want.
3. Shopping isn't a hobby. Women has this as a habit, because men don't have as much time to do this as women.
4. Yes, I do.
5. I prefer to do my shopping alone.
6. I prefer to do my shopping in shops, because it's faster.

6. Shopping in stores, because you can see the material in your hand and you can sample .
1 . I do most shopping in Auchan because it has very low prices and good products .
ReplyDelete2. I think one reason why many customers Auchan is that staff has prepared enough , I've noticed . And that change almost daily offerings specifically attract customers who do not have much money .
3 . Well, perhaps there is something wrong with me because shopping has never been my hobby . I do not know why women go shopping more often than men , but for example, I rarely observed to be discounts on clothing, or products for men compared to women , and perhaps it is the one aspect that draws women .
4 . Generally , I like to try new products and rarely buy the same product as before .
5 . Usually prefer to go shopping with friends to ask and give advice. I do not like to go alone , but when it happens , buy exactly what I needed and very fast .
6. Purchases from shops are ok , and internet too.
But shopping online can be risky. Often you realize that products that come are not according to the order. Worse is when you pay before you check out.

4 Generally I buy only what I need but if I like something very much I do everything to buy it.
5 I don`t like to shop alone especially when it comes to clothes because I am very indecisive and I need another opinion before buying it.

.3 For most of the women, shopping is like a hobby , they spend a lot of their leisure time in different shops , looking for different things, having such a big patience, comparing with men, who are very straight and the patience is not their best strength, therefore they should be understood.
