The primal urge to spend money may be one of the reasons why people go

shopping at the mall or retail store, but it's not the only reason. In fact, the desire to
spend money could be one of the least important factors that motivates customers
to go to a particular store.

So, what really makes consumers shop where they do? According to a New York-
based retail interior design expert, it's all about the store's atmosphere.

10 Amazing Reasons Why I Like Shopping


As a student overloaded with exams and assignments, shopping is one of
my favorite activities to do on the weekend. It’s fun, I find something
that makes me feel good, plus I lose calories. The feeling of browsing
through racks of clothes, trying something on, finding the perfect fit, and
coming home with a brand new item for my closet is genuinely
therapeutic. Here are 10 amazing reasons why I like shopping:
1.Uplifts My Mood
As stated by a study by the Journal Psychology and Marketing, retail
therapy has been known to uplift a bad mood. When we shop, our bodies
release endorphins, which gives a feeling of happiness and satisfaction.
2.Makes Me Feel Confident
Shopping helps me make choices about the way I want to look- the
clothes, shoes, and makeup I want to put on. I like shopping because it
helps me decide how I want others to see me
3. Helps Me Spend Quality Time with People I Love
One of the prime reasons why I like shopping is because it helps me
spend time with loved ones. I know I am not the only one who struggles
to find quality time to spend with friends or family. I bet you can relate.
Everyone has different schedules, and we don’t always see the free time
to have conversations with the people we love.
But spending a chill day with my mom or a friend shopping at the mall
(even window shopping) while agreeing on fashion choices and trying
on clothes for fun, can be a great way to bond.
4. Boosts My Creativity
When I shop for clothes, I try envisioning what combinations of clothes
can form an outfit, and how it will look on me.
5. Shopping Is a Workout Session.
It’s not something you hear often, but it’s true. Shopping is a great way
to burn calories. Even if a two-hour window shopping session may not
feel productive, it does give your body some exercise.
6. Helps Me Take Charge
7.I Can Dress for Success
It’s a big reason why I like shopping- it helps me dress for success.
When I buy something that looks good on me, it lends to my confidence
and makes me feel like I can conquer the world.
8.Reminds Me of Who I Am
9.Gives Me the Satisfaction of Adding Something New in My Life
Sometimes, things get dull. I get tired of the same old things in my life.
By buying something new, even if it is as small as a scrunchie, I feel
excited to make a new addition to my life. 
10.I Can Reward Myself After Working Hard.
I believe rewards enhance productivity. While working, I push myself to
work harder so that I can reward myself later. A great way to do that is
through shopping, which is why I like shopping so much. 
There are many reasons why I like shopping so much. It makes me get
off a screen and go out. Overall, it’s a fun activity that helps me feel
refreshed. However, it’s essential not to let it become an addiction. If
shopping is straining your finances, it’s best to stop and wait until you
can afford it. Also, shopping may be therapeutic, but it’s not a
replacement for actual therapy.
