Some people go shopping more regularly than other people to
browse products in shops even when they do not have much
money. This is known as window shopping and allows people
to plan ahead and save for the things they want to buy in
the future or wait for the items to drop in price. Some people
spend a lot of time looking for bargains while others do not
think of the price and are happy to spend a lot. Some people
believe that the more expensive the item, the better the
quality, but this is not always true. It is sensible to buy items
which are affordable, but some people use a credit card or
borrow money from the bank so that they can buy the items
they really want rather than wait for it.
