- 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.
- 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.
- What you buy only stays intact for one season – unfortunately, the quality of the materials used is not the best…
- 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!
- 90% of your clothes are made in poorer countries. Perhaps employing some unethical manufacturing method… 😿
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!
- 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…
- 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! 😪
