For some of us shopping is a wasting of time. We do it because we have to. Groceries, vegetables, fruit, cosmetics and newspapers are things which we all buy regularly. Shopping is quick and easy when there are no queues and the customers are decisive.

And when you have put everything into the boot of your car, go to the café and get a cup of coffee. Now you can relax and forget about shopping until next Saturday.
