SP1: Shopping Flashcards
Do you like online shopping?
I must say I’m pretty keen on shopping on the Internet. It’s safe to say that I’m a bargain hunter so I usually catch some attractive deals on e-commerce platforms such as Shopee. Loads of affordable things are available there.
What do you often shop for?
To be honest, since I’m a student, my budget is quite limited so there aren’t many things that I want to buy, not to say unable to buy. However, groceries like food and vegetables are things I have to buy on a daily basis
What types of shops do teenagers like best in your country?
I’m not an expert on teenage behavior, but I guess they like buying clothes, music, gadgets… that kind of thing. In my case, I have a younger sister who is addicted to buying lipsticks
Is shopping a popular activity in your country?
Yes, it’s a common thing to do here. Saturday is the busiest shopping day, and lots of people treat shopping as a kind of leisure activity, rather than something practical. Actually last weekend, my family and I just went on a shopping spree
How often do you go shopping?
Once or twice every month, I think. But usually, I don’t plan ahead. I’m an impulse shopper and sometimes, it’s quite compulsive. I don’t care much about what fashion trends are catching on but whenever I have an eye on an item, I bought it without a second thought.
Where do you usually shop?
Well actually I have a list of shops because each shop represents different styles, you know. And I know a lot of girls today like to try on designer clothes, which are a bit overpriced. I personally prefer because they’re more affordable.
What is the most expensive item that you have purchased?
Although I love purchasing new clothes and shoes, the most pricey thing I have ever bought for myself is the jacket I’m wearing. I’m a big fan of the brand so the minute I saw the advertising of the watch on its website, I decided that I had to have it though it costs an arm and a leg.
