Men are better at shopping than women
It’s official, men make better shoppers than women, according to a new study.Although women go on more shopping trips and spend longer trawling the stores than men, they are most likely to go home empty handed.
The average women spends almost seven hours a month shopping but more than 81 per cent say they often end up going home with things they had no intention of buying instead of what they were actually looking for.
But guys spend just five hours a month walking around the shops, with almost a third saying they always find what they were searching for.
However, that could be because they realise the football is about to begin so they just grab the nearest pair of jeans and get out of there.
A study of 3,000 Brits also found that men are also the most savvy shoppers – with more than a third saying value is the most important thing to consider when buying something new, while women were more concerned about what it looks like.
A spokesperson for Kodak, which carried out the study, said: "Women may be the ones who enjoy shopping, but this survey shows that it’s actually men who are more successful.
"You are more likely to find women slowly strolling around the shops trying on various outfits before actually making a purchase.
"But thanks to a guys hatred of all things shopping, they are much more efficient, just going in, getting what they need and leaving."
