- r00fus 9y agoWow I never would've thought someone could get a dopamine hit from shopping. Shopping either bores or irritates.

- Chris2048 9y agoDepends on if you like what you are shopping for. I love browsing e.g. watches, or computer parts. I hate shoe shopping - even the shops themselves - I'm immediately brought back to the times as a kid I had to shop for shoes, and my brain just goes "nope" and switches off. I hear some people, women in particular, quite like shopping for shoes. It's possible there are people that dislike shopping for computer parts? Of course shops can play up to the dopamine hit through promotion, fantasy-encouragement and packaging etc, but if you like a type of product, you'll probably like seeing what's available.
