well shopping is my hobby. However, mostly it seems that girls are more curious than boys. But, in my case I have much curiosity for shopping cloths and shoes. I like to go out with my friends particularly on weekends in different shopping malls in my hometown. Further, I mostly checkout all new arrivals and purchase them according to my interest and budget.

I think most people enjoy shopping like me. furthermore, some people like window shopping especially for women but about me, if I have free time it can be enjoyable. Anyway, it's become more enjoyable when you make a bundle!! so if you are broke it will be horrible for you. my wife and I go shopping when I need.

I really enjoyed shopping in the mall or any store. I really like to buy a bag and clothes. Usually, I go shopping with my friend, I could ask their suggestion which one is fit for me. But sometimes, I also like shopping for my self, only surrounding the mall not to buy something heheh.

How can I download the listenings

Hello mariem.n

If you are using a computer, you can right-click on the audio player and then choose 'Save Audio As' (or some other very similar option) and then the audio will download. It's a bit trickier on tablets on phones and depends on the operating system. I'd recommend doing it on a computer if possible.

All the best

Hello friends! Today I am happy to tell you my opinion about shopping .Really ,I usually go to shop because it makes me feel relax and it’s fun. That's my favorite thing. Sometimes if I've got free time I like to go because there are so many different kinds of stuff there. I like to walk around the shopping mall looking for what I need and in my opinion, shopping is not only a want, but it is also a must.That is all ! Good bye

No, I don't enjoy shopping. I occasionally go shopping for clothes, generally when it's necessary so I prefer to invest that time in other, more productive things.
