Question: Do you enjoy shopping? Why or why not?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: I enjoy shopping to some extent, but it depends on the circumstances and the purpose of the shopping.

Reason: Shopping can be a fun and rewarding experience when it involves exploring new products, finding good deals, or spending time with friends or family. However, it can also be stressful, time-consuming, or wasteful when it involves crowded places, high prices, or unnecessary purchases.

Example: For instance, I may enjoy shopping for clothes or accessories when I have a specific occasion or need in mind, and when I can compare prices and styles across different stores or websites. However, I may not enjoy shopping for groceries or household items when I have to carry heavy bags, navigate crowded aisles, or deal with long lines.

Alternative: Some people may not enjoy shopping at all, and may prefer to delegate this task to others or to rely on online or delivery services. Others may enjoy shopping as a hobby or as a social activity, and may spend significant time and money on it.
