Today, we are off :driving on our into the big city shopping today. :shopping Bulk grocery and picking up new glasses. This also means a detour to Ross and Marshalls and the MALL!! :wooot My twin girls (almost 15) and I are jazzed and beyond excited!
My 18 year old son is coming too, cause he NEEds a suit!
:groan
and my 15 and 3/4's son is going too!
They are not shoppers. :sense
shopping with men can be difficult, I have heard rumors that some pull it off, do you?
 
My man does his research before and has a list of specific items. He goes into 'the' store, buys what's on the list and then leaves. Unless its grocery shopping, then he usually comes home with cake and ice cream lol.

Its no fun shopping with my man!
 
I'm a lucky duck, hubby doesn't mind shopping, in fact tomorrow we are having a day out holiday clothes shopping

Ty on the other hand hates shopping so good job he is at school LOL
 
My hubby likes shopping sporting gear and electronics. Shopping clothes is nightmare for him!
 
Shopping with Joel is NOT. FUN. Not because he's a complainer or drags his feet, but because he takes off and I can't find him for hours. And he takes FOR.EV.ER. My normally 30-45 minute trips to the grocery store grow to 60-90 minutes with him along. Oy. lol
 
Hubby & the boys love shopping. I don't like them with me because it's my happy time. I don't want to budget them into my shopping. My weekend job is at Macy's. It's bad, but every lunch break, I like to go shopping at H&M & Forever21 by myself.
 
if i do it ... and that's a huge "IF" it has to be limited ... no more than 2/3 stores and only bc it is shopping for things the guys need. if they do not need anything, they ain't coming!
 
My guy likes to shop for trucks...fun for a little while, then no more!!! :thumbsdowns
He doesn't mind shopping with me...never says a negative word, gives his opinion when I ask for it. But I always feel like he hates being there, so I never really shop like I wanna shop around him. I'm worried that he's super bored :dizzy
So I usually go alone...and then hide a lot of my purchases and reveal them slowly over time :giggle
 
I avoid shopping with DH at all costs unless I have an extra hundred dollars and three hours to kill. :giggle

That man would buy poop in a jar if they wrapped it up pretty enough and put a big '75% off' sticker on top.
 
I have three daughters, too young yet to really appreciate shopping, but my husband loves shopping - for ANYTHING! He probably likes it more than I do. I only like to shop if I have the money to have fun with and if I know what I need and where to find it! I can't really stand just "browsing" for things! Hope your day went well Anne!
 
I only have boys in my family and my sons HATE shopping. My hubby likes to go shopping, but then it becomes all about him and I don't get anything done anyway. It's really just best for me to go alone. :)
 
Thank goodness my son will go and buy some of his own clothes now. He used to wear whatever I brought home that fit him. He now actually has an opinion as to his jeans. His sister does a great job in picking out stuff he loves, too.
 
My husband is pretty good about shopping. There are time when I'm more of a let's just get this and leave shopper and he's the browser. But I can already tell that my son is not going to be a shopper at all.

I hope it all went well today!!!
 
Mine hates shopping unless it's for home improvement supplies or electronics. We have a system. He comes shopping for a few minutes if he is interested in looking at anything, then he goes and listens to the radio in the car for awhile or sits in the mall lounge area and goes online to amuse himself until I am finished but I usually have to get everything done within an hour or so b/c he'll start gets antsy to go. I prefer to shop alone or with friends b/c then we can take our time and just hang out for an afternoon.
 
If it's just him and me he isn't to bad but if it's the kids too then he is bad,and I dunno which ones head I'm about to rip off first him or the kids,hence why I internet shop
 
hate it .... won't do it .... that is all I have to say about that :giggle
 
He likes to take me shopping but then he thinks he can decide what I buy. HAHA But then he is tired 30 minutes in so we have to leave. I like Internet shopping by myself.
