What do you hate shopping for?

Shopping for clothes. I'm not too sure why, as I used to enjoy it when I was younger. I like getting new clothes. I think I hate the wider "experience", I don't like being around all the other shoppers, I hate malls, don't like shopping in the centre of London, and after visiting bicester once, I came away feeling that it should be nuked! I think I have just become less tolerant of others as I got older.

Strangely I don't have the same reaction to supermarkets or places like book shops. So I think it is partially due to a disgust at the rampant consumerism and terrible dress sense/obesity of most bits.
 
A new rental property, pricing was bad enough but it's gone completely ridiculous of late.

People are renting out rooms for £6-1200, absurd.
 
For me it would have to be clothes, 9 /10 they've never got the size i need, And clothes seem so inconsistent these days in one shop a Medium will fit fine, You go into another shop and Medium is more like an extra small, So weird does my head in.
 
Anything where there are feasible options from my perspective, some days feel like every choice is a big life changing decision.

Online food shopping for delivery, no problem, unless the usuals aren't in stock.

Trousers.

Having athletic thighs I find most brands just don't accommodate that sort of fit and the ones that claim to are guff. You're either forced to buy larger sizes and end up with a baggy waist and flares or you compromise on the waist and end up with lycra-based materials that stretch but make you look like a cyclist.

Once upon a time every shop you wore the same size. Now I have 12-20 in my wardrobe. Same with shoes. Vary from 7-9.5
 
Tops. Unless they are mens t-shirts, I find many are getting tighter in sleeve and short in length.

I have muscular arms which have gone more muscular since hitting the gym.
 
Everything, even things I want. I never like to buy things at full price so it can make it tedious.
