Very often it is seen that people especially ladies loose track of time while shopping. This is not a good habit and you should always make a proper schedule before leaving for shopping so that you don't waste excess of time in that.

Its a common thing to lose the track of time, and generally people go shopping in their free time, which is why not many are worried about the time spent. But for those who do not go in their free time and need to do quick shopping, for them it is important to make a schedule.

Although when it comes to shopping its important that you have lots of time on hand, to get the best products and enjoy the time while browsing or purchasing products.

Making a list of what you want to buy and where to buy it (if possible) will lessen your time shopping. But you don't have to rush things up, enjoy it. Shopping is a therapy...it helps release stress.

I don't shop for clothes when I have errands. When I have errands, I make a list so as not to forget things. But I usually end up buying something that's not in the list like magazines or junk foods. I usually lose track of time when I go shopping. That is why I schedule a different day for that alone. I am very choosy that sometimes I end up buying nothing after a whole day in the mall.

Haha! You're right. Sometimes I lose track of time and shop for almost a whole day. I enjoy window shopping more than shopping itself.

If I am on a time frame, I will make a list and stick to it. Otherwise I plan on spending the whole day shopping.

If I go shopping with no time limit I have to go with a friend, not my kids or husband. They are big downers when it comes to shopping.

I don't know what happens when I go into shops, I swear someone put the clocks forward, I always end up rushing around trying to pick up last minute bits and pieces.

I feel like I must be an exception to the rule, but I really hate shopping. Every time I go shopping, I make myself a list of the things that I have to purchase that day and I literally run through the aisles to get done as fast as I can. The worst time I have is when I am clothes shopping and I don't do that too often, unless I really have to buy something different for an outing or a formal occasion.

Wow you are so organized mostly when I shop sometimes I don't even know what I want to buy. I just feel like I want to buy something so it always took so much hours for me to decide what to buy. My hubz hate it so much cuz he gets so tired and bored of waiting.

You know I am that way with the list but , I can never stay with the list I have been told that I am a compulsive buyer .If I see something I have to have it ... I have to look I cant just go with the list ...sometimes i am embarrassed by it sometimes .

Well, it really necessary that when you go for shopping directly go for the section in buying your items. Do you have your shopping with an empty stomach?

I agree with you Hanna. We got to have a list to save time when shopping. Do you think it would be helpful not to bring too much money? I mean, that could somehow minimize spending. What do you think?

Of course, its really necessary to ate first to avoid buying food items that is not so important. How much do you spent when you have shopping, Hanna?

I am the WORST. Let's say I'm going to get a coffee. Well, I'll get that, and then end up spending like $200-300 on a bunch of other stuff.. clothes, jewelry, makeup. Who knows. Then, the next day, I don't even remember half the stuff I bought anyway lol

I never lose time while shopping. I'm a get in and get out kind of woman, so I don't like to be at a single place any longer than I have to be. It's me who usually has to urge my mom to hurry up.
