For various reasons, not everyone is fond of shopping. So, it’s time to take tips to make shopping enjoyable - don’t go empty stomach, avoid departmental stores and take a friend along!

Huffingtonpost.com shares shopping tips for those who cringe at the thought of stepping out for shopping:

Be strategic. Don’t plan on checking out 10 stores in one day. This will tire and annoy you. Instead, pick two or three of your favourite spots.

Avoid departmental stores: The size of departmental store and its lack of windows can make anyone go crazy.

Eat snacks: A hungry shopper is never a happy one.

Take a friend along: A second opinion will be helpful when you are unable to decide which one to buy.

Look around online first: If you are looking for a specific item, check online first. This will save time. Also, many sites have a feature that checks to see if a specific item online is actually stocked at the nearest store.

Try shopping during off hours: To avoid crowd, shop during mid-day of week days. Another good time to try is early morning on weekends.
