10 Signs you did not Shop Local lately

      1. You repeatedly saw people wearing the same clothes and accessories as you. And nope, it’s not because they all have a great style… it’s rather about the same shopping locations. Everywhere.
      2. You’re not so satisfied about the color of the last jacket you bought… Too bad, there was no nice shop assistant giving you a personal and friendly advice.
      3. What you buy only stays intact for one season – unfortunately, the quality of the materials used is not the best…
      4. Typical shopping afternoon: after standing in line to enter your favorite chain store and to try out the clothes you chose, guess what? You also need to stand in a line to pay. But no worries – just 15 more shoppers and it’s your turn!
      5. 90% of your clothes are made in poorer countries. Perhaps employing some unethical manufacturing method… 😿
      6. Your gifts turned out not to be so original anymore. At the last birthday you went to, someone else had already given the same gift you bought.
      7. You’re not so happy about your local community – unfortunately all the money spent by local people goes to big chain stores instead of small businesses.
      8. You would really like to know more about the nice plastic bag you’re about to buy, so you ask the shop assistant to know more about the manufacturing. After a perplexed look, you find out that it just came straight from a super innovative machine that produced 10.000 identical pieces. Yay!
      9. You asked the shop assistants for an advice, and they suggested you something that doesn’t match your style AT ALL. Ah, if only they knew you better…
      10. Your only souvenir from last year’s holiday in Barcelona is a nice, colourful dress bought in an extremely appealing chain store there. But guess what? You just saw the exact same dress in your hometown too! 😪
