What kind of a shopper are you?

I do impulse buys on occasion, but generally I just have a look round the place, then if I see something I like I'll go home and look it up, see if it's decent, and if the price is good, I'll go back to buy it.

I know exactly what I'm getting and get it.

Although sometimes I'm bored and will aimlessly wander around just looking at crap to waste time. This is usually at 3am, so it's not like I'm in anyone's way.

I buy most of my stuff on-line, except for food and large items that would be uneconomic to ship. I'm a lazy fart who likes to shop in bed and have things delivered.

I am primarily a online shopper and a thifty discount shopper

I'm not much of an impulse buyer, but I do occasionally pick up a thing or two that wasn't on my list. I like to write down everything I'm planning to get, before heading to the stores.

I hear ya about those ditsy shoppers, hate it when they leave their cart in the middle of the aisle, REALLY have the impulse to bulldoze them out of the way!

I think about large items for months and then one day my mind is made up and it looks impulse, but really isn't. I just made up my mind and want to go on to the next issue at hand. I am a go to the store, get the basics and look for bargains in the process shopper. If my item is on sale, I am a happy woman, if not I will grab the store brand. All day shoppers who have to look at everything really annoy me, some of us really are in a hurry.

im a shopaholic i spend way 2 much all the time.i some times spend time looking at it before i buy,but sometimes not i just buy it cause i want it.

I'm the kind of shopper that sees something I like, contemplates it, and eventually talk myself out of it for any number of reasons. Usually I decide I can live without it and that money could be better spent on other things.

The "shopping addict" type? So all of the above, basically. I'm happy to shop all day and take my time to look at things. For really large purchases I'll go back and forth between things and research until finally I just make a random decision because I can't pick. I impulse buy all the time, but I try to impulse buy sale items only (doesn't always happen). I make lists, but rarely stick to them.

I have been classified as "marketrs night mare" because I am not a person who affected by adv. I buy what I need and I search only for I want.

The sort that makes a carefully planned list...then gets to the store and winds up with about half the list and a bunch of impulse buys. <_<
Happens mostly at places like Dollar Tree, especially if I see something I 'have to have right now' (usually that means a new item for my panda bear collectiion) x'D

It depends on the category.

For groceries, I know what I need, I'm quick and efficient and usually I just use one of the baskets so I can weave around the undecided families. I'm kind of picky about my ingredients (no carrageenan in my cream, no rBGH in my dairy, conventional rather than organic vegetables, produce that's at its peak, sugar from co-ops I like, wheat from mills in cities I've visited, no pasta from that plant that wouldn't let me in for a tour) ... generally, I do know my way around the stores I get groceries at fairly well. My first time in a new Asian/Indian/Mexican market I will usually go pretty slow and take a mental inventory of what they've got and what I should go research later, but once I know my way around I'm as efficient as I am at a supermarket. So, speedy, determined, no impulse buys (though I'll buy more of something I'll always need (sugar, flour, dry beans, coconut milk) if they're on sale. Even if I look like I'm in a hurry, grocery shopping is really relaxing for me.

For clothes, I get all nervous and self-conscious, so I hate it and just don't go at all. I usually acquire new clothes by asking a boyfriend to pick me out something from the internet and ordering it. But I'm still wearing a bunch of clothes from high school, because I just hate clothes shopping.

For big items like computers or bikes, I research all the components, buy them from reliable and well-priced sources, and assemble.

I think sex toys falls somewhere similar to groceries. I'm well-informed, efficient, and it makes me happy---brick and mortar or Eden.

I can't really think of what else I buy. Oh. Books... books are about the only thing I will impulse-purchase. I have to stay out of used book stores when I'm on a budget.

I research the items I am looking to buy long before I go to the store. When I do pick out which model I want, I am in and out of the store as fast as I can go. I hate shopping. I am a big spender on items that hold their value, or items that are a buy once in your life time type of item.
