Shopping is the examining of goods or services from retailers with the intent to purchase at that time. Shopping is an activity of selection and/or purchase. In some contexts it is considered a leisure activity as well as an economic one.

Shopping in ancient societies

Shopping can be traced back to many civilisations in history. In ancient Rome, there was Trajan's Market with tabernas that served as retailing units. Shopping lists are known to be used by Romans as one was discovered by Hadrian's wall dated back to 75–125 AD and written for a soldier.

How can I feel comfortable shopping in stores after a weightloss of 20 lbs?
Q. I have just dropped down into the size 12 range and finally able to start shopping in "normal stores". I still feel like nothing is going to fit be, and I become sad and frustrated when certain things don't. How can I feel comfortable shopping now?

What are the laws regarding hidden camera mystery shopping?
Q. I would like to start a business mystery shopping automotive dealership service departments in Arizona and I was wondering if it is legal to use hidden cameras to assist me in the evaluation of employees. I would not show the video to anyone, I would only use it for reference and evaluation purposes. If a dealership hires me to do this, would they be required to alert employees beforehand, such as telling them that they will be mystery shopped, but not giving specific times or dates? If I do not intend to show the video to anyone, would I need the employees permission to take the footage? I don't want to encounter any legal issues, so any information you could provide would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.
