Do you like shopping?
Yes, I do like shopping. I enjoy buying clothes and food. Sometimes I go to the shops at the weekend. I find it relaxing to look around and pick things I need.
Yes, I do — though it depends what I’m buying. I enjoy browsing for clothes or home bits because I like seeing things in person, but I’m less keen on long supermarket trips. Shopping can also be a nice way to socialise or get ideas for the flat.
Generally I do — but not all shopping feels the same. I enjoy pottering around boutiques or markets and finding something a bit different, which I find quite relaxing. For everyday essentials I treat it as a practical chore, but I’ll happily spend time choosing something special. It’s a mix of relaxation and practicality for me.
