Shipping is a favorite pastime for most of the young people . Why do you think is that? Do you think they should be encouraged to do some other useful activities ?

Shopping malls are the places where youngsters prefer to spend their leisure activity. Due to the growing popularity of the malls mostly in every city and frequently changing global trends in the world of fashion, youngsters desire to look like celebrities,

therefore

spend an enormous amount of

time

and

money

on shopping.

Although

, buying goods is not a bad thing to consider as it boosts the economy, I think that youngsters should be motivated to have other hobbies than shopping. Annually, hundreds of shopping malls are built.

This

is due to the high demand for fashionable goods by young people. Fashion trends change every season, and these trends are promoted by the renowned people. To look stylish like celebrities youngsters spend a lot of their

time

in the shops.

For instance

, the recent research published in the Vogue magazine revealed that

such

consumption behaviour of the young people is influenced by famous people.

Thus

, to stay stylish youngsters prefer shopping to other activities.

Nevertheless

, most of youngsters spend their

money

on the things they actually don't need. Marketing researches call

such

behaviour impulse buying.

For instance

, when my friend sees a dress in the shop of the style she will never wear but it is of a high fashion, she will buy it.

This

would lead to the waste of

money

and

time

instead

of spending them for better purposes.

Hence

, youngsters should be encouraged to spend their pastime doing competitive sports or intellectual activities

such

as reading or drawing. To conclude, while shopping does not have any detrimental effects on the youngsters, they should spend their

time

and

money

carefully not to have by regrets in the future.
