We have more shoppers here than I would have thought....Rick's idea of "shopping" is "Can you buy me some jeans while you are out? Or...."Can you order this on line"?



Most of the time I buy him stuff while I'm out. He doesn't complain about what I buy, nor does he ask me to return anything, if he did, he'd have to start doing his own shopping.

Jim will shop if he absolutely has to. He'll go with me on occassion if I have a complete mission in mind and it's not just for sport. That's usually not too painful. But I do most of his shopping and that works for him.

i miss living at home...my mom would come home with shirts and pants for me to try on and decide what I liked. I hate shopping. If I know I want or need something, I go to the store and buy it and get home.

I was all ready to deny that I enjoy shopping at all, then I remembered that JT caught me in Circuit City this summer.

Well when you are single you have no choice, it's not like I can send the cat to the store...

I love to shop, I just hate paying the bills afterwards. I buy as much as I can on-line because it is so easy, but somethings like clothing, I just have to try them on.

Grocery shopping is one of my favorite tasks, and I guess that is good because I go about every 3 or 4 days.

The only time shopping gets frustrating for me is when I can't find what I'm looking for.

I always hated to shop, even before I was relegated to crutches. Now with this disablility I hate shopping even more. Going into a store is a real hassle.
I use to hate catelog shopping, but now I consider online shopping as electronic catelog shopping and I love that. I hunt and search for pricing for hours at a time. I love it.
So, I selected catelog shopping for my category. If I have to eat and left alone, I order out, I hate going into a grocery store.

Pretty much. Other useless stuff that Rick doesn't shop for includes house furnishings, new cabinets, tiles, you know the small stuff.

To select our kitchen cabinets, and tiles, I brought home ONE door and a selection of tiles, counter top samples and, oh , I had a cabinet brochure.

Mind you I had made a few trips to the kitchen place to narrow the selection, I had a brochure or 10, and made many trips to the tile place. Now we are looking at the samples I brought home, and had this conversation.

Me "Do you like this, honey?"

Him "That's fine."

"We" were now done shopping.
