What aspects and signs hate going to stores

I only buy crap online.. I HATE HATE HATE going to malls and stores for so many reasons. Not like running to grocery store to buy essentials, it's a quick process.
I'd rather do taxes on my comfy bed.

My mom is forcing to go to the mall because of deals for my new apartment WAH.. I know I should but I really don't want to..

It's more a guy thing. Guys, a lot of the time, don't like shopping for clothing, in particular.

I hate shopping too. I hate to go shopping unless its absolutely necessary or I am about to starve to death. I hate buying clothes and other stuff like that.
I have no indicators. I am curious about this one too. Ironically I have Moon and Venus in 10th house and i should love fashion and shopping.

I love shopping, if I have money to spend. I used to love shopping for clothes, but now I do that online too, haha.

I like to go by myself, though. I can't stand other people dragging my happy, crowded experience with their slowness and wanting to go into stores that bore me.

My husband despises shopping for clothes, but is always suggesting that we go to IKEA. I hate that place. So I'm always like "NOOOOOOOOO!"
He has Sac AC, and couldn't give a f*ck less about how he's dressed, or his hair or whatever. But he could shop for couches for hours (of agony, for me).

My 10th is empty. It's my Leo AC and Aries Venus that loves to shop.

It's probably his Cap Moon and Sag AC that only want to shop for things that either serve a purpose, or will be over with quickly.

Now that I mostly buy my clothes online or somewhere like Plato's Closet (I don't like to spend a lot of time in there, because most of their stuff just sucks), I tend to spend hours in places like PCC, herbal supplement stores, book stores (that's always been the case), and the public market.

Same story, different place.

I usually like to go out shopping whether its w/ friends, family, by myself, or my special someone.

Particular things I dislike shopping for, like belts.

I've bought many cool looking but poor quality belts. I've bought belts from Hottopic, Khols, and Target. And they are that awful cardboard material, that ends ups only lasting my a few months. The Hottopic belt was in such bad shape after a few months, that I had to throw it in the trash at work.
I hate trying belts on at stores. I hate trying anything on in front of people, whether people are watching me try on the belt or not, makes me feel very uncomfortable...knowing that anyone in the store could watch me try on the belt. That's just me, I like privacy when I try stuff on. And with the plastic things on the belts ya really can't try them on anyways, but I still wrap the belt around to get an idea.

I use to look at belts at Spencer's. A store like that though, I feel like the employees there have a mind set of "everyone that comes in here and likes these kinds of things is a potential shoplifter," and I kind of don't blame them for thinking that way. (from what I've seen there)
But I use to like to look at the belts there and attempt to get an idea how it would fit. As soon as that happened a staff member would be right behind me breathing down my neck! I wanted to snap at them like "you need to back off, I need to know how this fits if I am going to buy it. I am not going to STEAL IT!"

Bought a good quality belt finally. Wasn't fun, feel like I've been belt shopping too many times this year.

I'm with you man!
Haaaaaaaate it!

Well....
I hate other people getting in my way and I can never find things that I like.
Food.... I know what I want - get in and get out.
Mostly it's just people. "go block another pathway!"

I don't like retail shopping but my favorite shopping experience thus far is when my S.O took me to this private showroom to look at furniture we were alone...

It was sooo huge like a warehouse and we just went completely crazy.. ran around it was so fun.
Best shopping experience!!

We didn't buy anything though LMFAOO..
The the lady assumed we were like really into buying and her face was priceless.

Retail is never that fun.
When I was little i was that child that would hide behind racks and scare the crap out of customers and my mom would hold my hand and force me stay with her...
I think that turned me off from retail as borings...
Where you have to behave.

Oh childhood experiences.

Ha ha. I hate going to the grocery store, but I can spend hours in shops that I actually find interesting. Going to the grocery store is very close on my list to driving in rush hour traffic.

About belts.
Try a vintage store, they have waaaayyy better quality belts in those stores. That's where I usually get the ones I like, anyway.

I just got back from shopping ;P I love clothing and jewelry. I'm reluctant to buy online as many stores have different ideas on women's sizes.

I used to curl up and sleep under the clothes racks. LOL
Scared the crap out my mom a few times when she couldn't find me. Usually she knew and when ready to leave that immediate area she would come to get me.

lol i love shopping. i love browsing stores and finding cheap deals. Had online shopping addiction. I saw it in my chart but can't remember the exact aspect. Apparently, i am quite the shopaholic because there's a insatiable need to grip on to material things to compensate something.

But I've overcome it by keeping my restless mind (Gemini moon) occupied. Now I've learnt to control it. Luckily i am conscious of my spending.

Online shopping can be quite the devil. It's so convenient and you don't have to wait/queue but meh it kills your wallet.


For fashion, look at 6H, Venus.
For spending, look at 2H.
For how fast/slow you shop, probably moon.

Simply a male-female divide, hunting versus gathering. Shopping is simply a misplaced gathering instinct. So I'm always surprised when I hear females don't like shopping, makes me think they'd starve to death as they wouldn't like picking berries.

I love shopping, even don't mind grocery shopping. I've always attributed that to my SN in Taurus in 2nd - a love of stuff and dare I say Libran Moon - the Gestapo on this website will draw and quarter me for simply being me.

As to shopping, US store shopping is hard because the sales assistants harass you so much to make a sale. I had a horrible occurrence in an upmarket US store once, I was just a curious tourist looking around. Culturally, I found it very difficult and suffered a bit of culture shock because of this.

Hmm I don't hate shopping, but I don't like browsing through the shops. Even online. Often I just get what I want then get out.

I hate shopping for shoes though. What a nightmare.

Once I went shopping with one of my friends for nearly 7 hours. After the first 20 minutes I was feeling grumpy and bored as hell, and she just kept walking around, trying things n having the time of her life. Lol. Learned my lesson the "hard" way. Never again.

What placements hate shopping?
I'd think it was Ares in 2H or Aphrodite in 6H...
But Aphrodite in 2H usually shows people who love shopping... and that's me right here. ^_^

I'm beginning to see where I get my enjoyment of shopping from as I'm a Gem moon and Asc. I love finding deals and tend to window shop more than buy things.

What do you do about clothing sizes though? I know here in Canada a small blouse may fit in one brand but would need a med from another brand. Do you just stick with stores you know?

That's what I do if I buy clothes online. It's a gigantic hassle to return online stuff, so I make sure it's a brand I'm familiar with and know will last.
I often let someone else shell out the money for new clothes from Urban Outfitters or Anthropologie, and then capitalize on their trendiness via eBay.
