The 10 types of shopping personalities

1. The penny-pincher
Penny-pinchers are practical to a fault. They'll hit up the sales, only to spend the entire day window-shopping.
2. The retail therapy addict
The retail therapy addict is far from pragmatic. Shopping isn't a recreational activity - it's a stress-buster.
3. The generous one
Everybody needs at least one friend like this. Generous shoppers are, of course, people who treat the sales like they're holiday shopping
4. The delusional cougar
Few things are more awkward than emerging from the dressing room at Forever 21 to see a middle-aged auntie trying on the same neon animal print dress as you.
5. Economical shoppers
Economical shoppers are opportunists - when given a discount, they'll leverage it to its full potential. They'll buy three shirts in the same colour just to get one free
6. The perks junkie
Shopping perk junkies are those who loiter around stores just for the free air conditioning, for free perfume samples, or for the free food.
7. The newbie/pro combination
Newbies are usually accompanied by pros, who act as makeover consultants while their dowdy friend
8. The lucky ones
This person strikes gold wherever goes. Will find the last dress in her size on the sales rack, and it will fit perfectly.
9. The name brand loyalists
This is the person who strolls around the mall saying things like, 'Geez! I can't believe people treat Coach like it is COUTURE. So middle-class!' .
10. The narcissists
Narcissist shoppers are people who enter a dressing room with an armload of clothes purely to snap photos of themselves that they can share on Instagram later.

Which one are you :)

The type who takes his brain with him to "logically" and "consciously" shop for what he "needs". end of story.

I'm the kind of a guy that hates shopping and all of that "This is Prada, it's the best" BS that people "enjoy" these days

1 : This one is to create an impression that this store is very popular [ I just 'sacrifice' my time & effort to promote their shopping centre - no personal profit ]

6 A : Because that free perfume's aroma is for fellow

shoppers not for me.[ Doing 'for others' benefit ]

6 B : I need free food becaue my energy is being

used while strolling in their mall. [ No gain ]

what about someone who just go into a cloth store, and when asked "can i help you?" just say: "yes please: dress me!" (he's not naked, but put all his trust in the salesman/woman)
