I simply adore those enormous shopping malls that they’ve recently built in the centre of the city. I always try to take advantage of any price reductions that they might have, especially on jeans or shoes. Occasionally, I don’t even get anything, but it doesn’t bother me. I just love the places and the atmosphere there. Everything’s so shiny and attractive. Some people say that they are impersonal. But do you really want to get to know the shop assistant? | Those big malls on the outskirts are absolutely great places to hang out in. However, I must confess though that I actually can’t stand the stores themselves. In fact, I can’t bear any kind of store. If you ask me, people are always wasting their money on things that aren’t necessary. That’s why I steer clear of them. But the cafés and bars are totally cool. You can also get something to eat like a burger or slice of pizza. They’ve got a really decent range. |

For me shopping is something much more than a necessity. I get a real pleasure out of it. Everyone needs to escape from the pressures and demands of everyday life, and a bit of retail therapy is the way that I handle stress. However, if you ask me, it should be a solitary activity without the distraction of friends. I also never come back without purchasing something to wear. My friends think that it’s terribly extravagant, but that’s the kind of person I am. | After we’ve finished doing the weekly shopping, we sometimes take the kids to see the latest blockbuster. They love the look of these big, bright malls where we shop. It’s one of the highlights of the week for them both. The only thing is that everywhere is so packed these days. Sometimes you can barely move. You also spend so much money but you feel like you haven’t actually bought anything. I suppose that’s just part of modern life. At the end of the day, it’s worth it though. |

Of course, supermarkets might very well be cheaper, but it takes absolutely ages to get there and then you have to hang around with masses of people in enormous queues all day. It’s simply unbearable. In my local shop, I get everything done quickly. I always have a little chat with the owner too. We’ve known each other for years. You don’t get that in a huge store. They’re so cold. I hate them all. I swear that you’ll never catch me in one again as long as I live. | It really gets me down when we have to go shopping with the kids. It’s not waiting in a line with them. I can handle that. It’s just that they’re always asking for something. Sometimes, I feel like I’m going to explode. We end up getting useless stuff that wasn’t even on the list. Sometimes I really wonder if they think that we’re made of money. It’s completely different when we go alone and leave the children at home. I quite enjoy it then. |
