xxxxxxS To be honest, when someone ask me about going shopping, I have to think a lot about it because I prefer to get all I need online, by internet. Why? Frist of all, it's more comfortable, chepper and faster than buying in the stores with all people around you and waiting to pay in a queue. What a mess! I've never liked going shopping so always what I can avoid it, I do. And if you need, for instance, take something back, you can do it too, without any problems. The only one I see with this, if when I need to buy new clothes because normally, despite I don't like going shooping, I have to do, because I need to try them on and I always try to bring with me some friend to ask him or her if, for example, the shirt suits me or, instead of that, I should try another one. Anyway, I only buy what I need. I don't have any expensive luxury and I try not to waste my money. Thinking about that, I would say I prefer to spend my money in other things like going on a travel or beers or both or just whatever I feel like at any time. Now, if you want to get to know more about all this, please feel free to ask me everything you want. I remember I told him this and he told me he had just a question more. Then, after a second, he asked me where I prefered to buy online and I remember I said that I prefered to buy on “Amazon” because I am customer of them and I can take advantage of this with many pretty offers, and the delivery only takes 24 hours, something, what for me, is amazing, like magic. Besides, I can’t afford to through out my money all the time and, even thought I could do it, I wouldn’t do it. So finally my friend went to buy alone...and I went to the bar.

To be honest, when someone asks me about going shopping, I have to think a lot about it because I prefer to get all I need online, by internet. Why? First of all, it's more comfortable, cheaper, and faster than buying in the stores with all people all around you and waiting to pay in a queue. What a mess! I've never liked going shopping so anytime I can avoid it, I do. And if you need, for instance, to take something back, you can do it too, without any problems. The only problem I see with this is if when I need to buy new clothes; because normally, despite normally disliking shopping I don't like going shooping, I have to go, because I need to try them on. and I always try to bring with me a friend to ask him or her if, for example, the shirt suits me or, instead of that, I should try another one.

Anyway, I only buy what I need. I don't have any expensive luxuries and I try not to waste my money. Thinking about that, I would say I prefer to spend my money on other things like going on a travel or beers or both, or just whatever I feel like at any time. [You can also say "going on a trip," or "traveling," but not "going on a travel."]

Now, if you want to get to know more about all this, please feel free to ask me anything you want. I remember I told my friend this and he told me he had just one more question more. Then, after a second, he asked me where I preferred to shop online and I remember I said that I preferred to buy on “Amazon” because I am customer of them a member and I can take advantage of this with many attractive offers, and the delivery only takes 24 hours, something, which for me, is amazing, like magic. [A person can be pretty, but an offer or a deal is attractive.]

Besides, I can’t afford to throw out my money all the time and, even though I could do it, I wouldn’t do it. So finally my friend went to shop alone...and I went to the bar. [You use "to buy" when you're talking about something specific, like "my friend went to buy a shirt." If you're just being general, then use the verb "to shop."]


Good job!
