People in Britain really like shopping. In a recent survey 56% of women between the ages of 16 and 40 described shopping as their main hobby. They often go shopping every day!
Traditional, local shops exist in some areas. They sell different things like food, medicines and cosmetics, clothes and books.
Many towns have a large shop where you can buy a wide variety of items. They are called department stores.
For a lot of people "going shopping" doesn't mean they are going to buy anything. Many people never spend any money. It's a social event. Shopping centers are open late most nights of the week and from 11 o'clock until five o'clock on Sundays.
