In many countries around the world, shopping has turned into a form of entertainment rather than a way of getting what people need. Discuss the reason for this trend. Is it a positive or negative development?

In

this

modern era of technology, shopping is more about impulsive

purchase

rather than basic needs. Since

last

decade, it has been witnessed that shopping has replaced many activities that people used to choose as their hobby. An increasing number of malls, various schemes of EMI and instalment, and online shopping facility are the reasons for it. I strongly believe that it is more negative development than positive one.

For the same, as a part of shoe off, they buy branded unnecessary things which are more costly than their usual price. Even though earning more and being extravagant on buying unnecessary products, many times individuals have to suffer financial crisis just because of credit facility offered by malls and e-commerce business.
