Christmas shopping
Shopping seems to be women's favorite verb, but when it comes to Christmas, men, women, young people, and even children empty their piggy banks or fill their credit cards to buy gifts, even if it's just a small token.
Furthermore, there's that famous phrase... "I'm going to buy some new clothes and a little present for myself, after all, I deserve it..."
If you think this is a Brazilian thing, you're wrong... because here in the USA, Americans are no different.
The more fortunate can afford to shop in Beverly Hills, on the chic Rodeo Drive.
There you will find shops with famous brands such as Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Ralph Lauren, and Tiffany. In addition to all the comfort, in some of them you can even enjoy a delicious champagne while you shop.
If you want to buy brand-name items from these stores, but at a more affordable price, go to the outlet, but the stores there are packed with customers, resulting in an average wait time in the checkout line of 20 to 30 minutes.
As a consequence of this end-of-year madness, restaurants, parking lots, and restrooms are insufficient to accommodate everyone.
While these factors are inconvenient, it's very good to know that this is a sign that the economy is doing well and that people aren't afraid to spend money.
The most important thing to know is that no matter how much money you have to spend, here you will always find something interesting, good, and inexpensive if necessary.
Happy shopping!!!
