Kevin. Every weekend I have to help my mom to do the shopping. I just hate those hours. She has a huge to-buy list: food and some household stuff. Nothing interesting, we just go along the rows of shelves and my mother spends plenty of time choosing. As for me, I don't even see the difference. Why do I have to waste my time pushing the trolley and packing the bags?
Mary. My parents think that I am not a child anymore and can help to do some work about the house. Doing the shopping is also on the list. I support the idea and always help. I try to get involved, not just stand or put the purchases into a plastic bag: I help to find necessary things or use an app to compare prices in different supermarkets.
Billy. I have taught my parents to do the shopping online. They are so happy now. My dad chooses some tools for his garage, and mom buys clothes, shoes, and things for the house. She has more time for the family and for herself.
Nina. I love going shopping, especially for clothes and nice things for myself. When I am in a shopping centre I forget about everything! Gorgeous dresses, fantastic accessories, luxurious bags ... I feel so happy, even if I am not lucky to buy anything cute.
Alice. Visiting a shopping centre is a ritual for me and my girlfriends. We spend whole weekends there. But we not only visit shops or look for discounts, we chat, discuss our lives, problems, boyfriends, etc. It's the best way to relax for me!
