I have a 30 minute lunch break. It takes me 7 minutes to get to the mall. I wanted to go to Loft and it's right by the mall door. I was out of my office, to Loft, tried on 7 things (all tops so I left my pants and boots on), paid for my purchases and back at work in 32 minutes.
I like getting in and out. 
If I hate something later, I just take it back.

Depends. 80% of the time I know exactly what I'm looking for, so if I don't see it, I leave.

I am a speed shopper! I definitely don't like to linger which makes it hard to shop with other people. I typically make a lap around the store and grab anything I want to try on or leave.

@petunia354: same! I like shopping solo because I like shopping at my own speed which usually is super fast! In and out!

I usually shop rather quickly in person bc by then I've already got an idea of what I'm looking for and have looked at the website stock ahead of time.
But if I'm alone and have time to kill, I'll linger!

@petunia354: Same. Shopping with people is actually irritating. I'm trying to get over myself about it, but ... I like to be in and out.

That's pretty impressive! I used to be good, but since I've been away from the US for a long time, and rarely get to shop by myself these days, I'm kind of like a deer in the headlights! It can take me a few stores to get into the swing of things/be decisive about purchases!

Depends on the store!
Clothes for me, I'm quick.
Home stuff, I like to linger!

Usually in and out. Like PPs I don't like shopping with others because of that! I'm rarely in the mood to linger!

I went to Target yesterday for socks...walked out with just socks...TWO HOURS later. I love to browse. I was with my sister and our kids (4 under 3) so that could have been why, but in general I love to just look around. This is why the husband hates shopping with me. 
oops.

I am a slow shopper! I am too indecisive when it comes to buying things! Half of the time I'll decide to leave and come back later if I still want it.

@mediagirl: That is AMAZING. I'm fast if I know what I'm looking for and can find it right away. Otherwise, not so much.

I'm fast and DH is so sloooooow.
Drives me nuts. Actually that's true of a lot of things for us, not just shopping (cooking, eating, bathing the kids....)

Well with clothing I'm super fast. I start scanning the store as soon as I walk in and do a quick lap to see if there's anything I like.
But with drug stores I'm so slow bc I'm trying to find the best deal and often comparing brands.
