Describe your shopping habit.
You should say:
What type of things you like shopping for;

And explain whether that habit is good or bad.
When it comes to shopping, I genuinely enjoy it, mainly for relaxation and stress
relief. I prefer shopping in-store for the authentic experience, trying things on and seeing
items firsthand. This way, I get my purchases immediately, unlike online shopping.
I typically buy clothes once a month, more often if there are special events. For me,
new clothes bring happiness and daily motivation, boosting my confidence when I look in
the mirror.
In my view, whether this habit is good or bad depends on how you spend. It's
negative if you overspend on expensive clothes. However, I only buy what fits my budget.
Spending wisely allows me to save for my future.

quality. The purchase process was straightforward, with convenient online banking
payment, and the shoes arrived flawlessly the next day. I enjoy shopping on Shopee due to
the wide selection of prices, styles, and models, plus numerous deals. It's much more time-
saving and economical; one just needs to be careful when selecting products. I highly

rise of 4.0 technology, shopping trends have shifted to include online platforms. Many no
longer wake early for daily groceries, instead buying weekly supplies via websites like
Shopee, Lazada, or Gojek. Essential goods, from home appliances and fashion to food, are
now accessible online. Online payments are also more common, saving time and offering
incentives. I believe these changes are beneficial, aligning with global trends, providing
broader choices in price and quality, and ultimately saving money.

perceived quality or variety.
