    All the time. Often, the act of looking is enough to satisfy the part of me that wants to buy, which is useful for avoiding regretable impulse purchases.

    I love looking at cute things. I treated myself to a $100 dollar hat once.

  • Yep all the time. I even looked at beautiful houses. It makes me work a bit harder though to get these things.

    All the time.

    What I'm usually doing is thinking about what specific product, from a certain kind of product category, to get next.

    For me, it's normally various kinds of perfumes, underwear, clothes [especially if I can find something unique/that I can vaguely associate with Japan and/or something else I'm interested in] and occasionally a DS/music.

  • Yeah I look often. Especially on Ebay. Ebay is great because you can put things in your watch list and it's like you have bought loads and then forget about it all. I get the pleasure of buying without the sending :)

    I agree with Haa! I look at the Paul Smith store for shoesshoes that are way out of my range.

    Yes. I love looking at expensive merch from the movies I'm obsessed with and wishing I could have it.

  • No, I'm usually very thrifty (read cheapskate) and go out of my way to avoid temptations as much as possible.

    I love online shopping coz I know exactly what I'm going on to look for. I never browse of 'window shop' but I buy anything I like.

    No, never. In fact, the thought sickens me.
