You bat for Team Shop if you enjoy shopping for your wardrobe. You also might enjoy shopping with and for other people. You’re on Team No Thank You if you don’t. If you could magically update your wardrobe without shopping, that would be ideal. You don’t particularly enjoy shopping with and for other people either. Note that shopping in brick ’n mortar stores and online both count as shopping for the purposes of this poll.

This poll makes me think of my late Papa who loathed shopping. It was punishment to him. My late Mama filled my Dad’s wardrobe with items that she thought he would like, and I took over the job when she passed away. For the most part, this worked well. When we physically needed my Dad with us to shop for things like shoes, suits, and outerwear, we had to keep the process short, and throw in a nice lunch and trip to the bookshop. Papa was firmly on Team No Thank You.

I on the other hand, am firmly on Team Shop. I LOVE shopping. I greatly enjoy shopping online and in stores for my own wardrobe, and for others. I enjoy the challenge of finding just the right items for myself, my clients, friends, and family members. I like seeing what’s on offer everywhere at all price points, and how it changes with the seasons, trends, and economic climate. I enjoy shopping in small groups and larger groups. I was born to shop.

Over to you. Do you bat for Team Shop, or Team No Thank You? Tell us why and no batting for both teams. If you can’t pick a side, there’s Japanese curried oyster mushrooms with brown rice, spicy cauliflower, blackened cod, and a fresh green salad on the bench. Gluten-free white chocolate cookies for dessert.
