Love it or hate it?

We are off to get a few bits for our naughty few days away today and I loathe it, I have to find sexy underwear (which is a mission to find sometnjng sexy, in my price range, can fit me and on the high street!) a swimsuit and some others bits of shit, doughnut can’t abide going round different shops, he is very much a ‘plan a route, get in and get out’ kind of man.

Plus We hate spending money on ourselves, we rarely do it.

So are you a lover or a fighter when it comes to shopping?

I don't like shopping for stuff for myself, as I am very indecisive.

I like buying gifts for other people; especially at Christmas, with the Christmas mood and ambience.

Exactly, I like to think of the people I’m buying for and smile when I think I’ve made a good purchase, buying for myself is just rubbish!

Much harder finding sexy stuff on the high street for the larger ladies like myself I always end up buying something for the bairn. Only sexy outfit I have really is to big on me now but I’m yet to find one I like in my size and price range

I only like shopping when I know what I want, where to get it, and can be in and out of the shop in 15 minutes or less.

This includes buying food, clothes, furniture, whatever.

Can't understand the concept of window shopping!!!! Just....why!

I enjoy some shopping and hate others. Clothes shopping is awful. I have an idea of a thing I want, it was everywhere last year, doesn't exist this year. Or if it does it's in whatever hideous colour is in now (this season appears to be baby poo brown) or in some way wrong. And rather than going, here are dresses, it's all, shop by brand. No. Stop it! If I want a pencil skirt I want to see your range of pencil skirts. Idgaf about the designer.

I look for certain colours, but they tend to be seasonal. And some seasons I feel like, I can't wear any of this.

Love clothes but the shopping not so much. I can never really find what I'm looking for.

Food shopping is just a chore...

Shopping for it, packing it, paying for it, dragging it home and then unpacking it!

Probably why I eat out so much.

I have a shopping addiction. I'm at my happiest buying pretty things to make me look good. I wish you lived closer to me I would drag you shopping and show you the best places to go for bigger clothes. Biggest tip ignore the label size as they vary so much

I like shopping with help. Professional or otherwise. I was looking for something specific a few years ago and in desperation signed up for the John Lewis personal shopper. They were fantastic. Ditto makeup. They help me cut through the crap and find the thing I'm looking for.

I bucked the trend last summer when I bought holiday clothes. I can wear bright colours abroad but not at home for some reason.

I detest high street shopping and grocery shopping. Online is my preference.

I do however love markets and alternative shops. I can while away a whole day rummaging through vinyl or vintage. Luckily my daughter feels exactly the same so our shopping trips are glorious.

I love shopping but tend to buy my lingerie and swimwear online as hard to find my boob size in shops. I do most online now as can get delivered when it suits me but I still trek into oxford street to get my fix. I’m a bit of a shopoholic.

I'm not a fan of shopping and I do as much like an online too.

I can't buy clothes online though because I have to try things on because I'm not a standard shape or size and it's just easier to go in the shop and try on rather than order it and send it back. What I've been doing recently though is ordering stuff online and doing click and collect in store because then I can try it on in the shop and if it doesn't fit get a refund straight away.

I was just going to say the same thing for sale at the moment is brilliant.

I didn't get any lingerie because I've got quite a few bits and I'm trying to lose weight so it seems like a waste of money at the moment.

I have a really good sale on toys as well I picked up an absolute bargain yesterday.

After going in so many shops for underwear, the last place I looked was Bon marche believe it or not! I found a nice pink set that fits perfectly and you can’t see it under my black dress that I found in a charity shop for less than a tenner! All kitted out for a first group social on Friday now! Just dying my hair now!

Yay! Have a rest while the dye works. You'll feel amazing when it's all done.

I go shopping on my own. They have a man creche at shops near me. The menfolk get dumped on seats while the women go shopping.

Newlook is good for shoes because they do wide fitting and Comfort Fit because I have the same problem but I can usually get something nice is there.

I'm indifferent, but I rarely browse. I go to get the thing I want and that's it.

The only time I browse is for clothing online, I like minimalist korean fashion so I scan through wholesale websites selling asian clothing and my mouth waters

I have wide feet of different sizes and a problem in one foot which means certain types of shoe structure (that I can't predict) are painful.

Clothes shopping I can get bored rifling through the rails and can only manage a few shops.

I like shopping for books and plants and trinkets and antiquey things best of all. All the stuff I dont actually need

I used to do a shopping list for my youngest son who is autistic, heaven help me if I didn’t do the list as the shop is laid out and if they decided to move stuff around. Thankfully he doesn’t need one anymore.
