I think I do all three equally... maybe my mom just a wee bit more because I'm just now (as of yesterday) allowed to drive to the mall alone (we live like an hour away from the mall...).

I think I buy the most when I'm alone though.. no one to stop me (or talk sense into me)!

I go shopping with my mom, if I see something I like I BEG her like crazy for it! It works really well. And you buy a little bit at a time so she doesn't really notice how much you spend.

Same here. Usually with my boyfriend (bc I lack friends ~_~) and he always give me this look that screams "CMON LETS GO ALREADY" that makes the whole shopping experience unplesasant.

Otherwise, I go food shopping with my mom.

I hate shopping by myself. I wish there were some kind of rule that said you're not alowed shopping by yourself. I mostly go shopping with my mom or my friends (my friends are so funny when they shop)

I actually prefer shopping alone, mainly because it offers no restrictions on what I want to do/where to go/what to try on. I shop with some of my friends and....ugh they suck! They always stick together and leave me almost by myself; they never wait for me. I always feel like the third wheel and never buy anything good with them.

And the thing I hate MOST MOST MOST is when I ask them about an item/what they think of it and they say, "It's up to you..." I hate it! I'm asking you're opinion! I don't want you to tell me a pointless thing I already know.

But shopping with my parents is worse. My mom is very embarrassing, and doesn't like the style/stores that I like. So it's really pointless. Same with my sisters.

So shopping alone offers the best rewards that's my rant.

it depends on whether i'm looking for a second opinion on stuff or not ..if yes, then i'll most likely bring me best pal along, cos she's brutally honest.

and i shop alone if i just wanna browse n buy random things ^^

They're fun when they are...but they don't realize how mean they are when they are too.
Like when we tried MiniMelts for the first time at the mall. They payed first and began to walk away, as I was paying a dropped all my money on the floor and they kept walking away and didn't even look back.

God I had friends like that in highschool. The ones that think they're superior and constantly made me feel like the third wheel. I say, ditch them. If friends can't even take into consideration of your presense, then they're not worth your time.

MiniMelts are this weird kind of icecream. I'm sure Google could explain better :?

Unfortunately friends like they are, aren't just the kind you can ditch. And they can be really great sometimes too. But in general, yeah I'd agree with you, but it's more complicated than what it seems...

Mlarhh.

I do shopping always by myself... Because I don't know anyone who wouldn't get bored with me. ^^;;

And no-one likes second-hand shopping what I do most.

Aww... Your friends aren't nice at all.. I think you might need new ones.. ><; Because really, you should be treated wayyy better than that... and if your supposed "friends" don't realize that, then you shouldn't be with them..

I usually shop with my sister and friends sometimes. Sometimes my sister gets annoyed with how long I'll take in a clothes store or something xD;; haha.. but yeah.. I usually don't go by myself but I could if I wanted to lol It's just nice to have company with me :]
