When you and your friends/squad attend a retail centre together with the intention of working as a team to complete your shopping for Christmas or another non religious seasonal celebration.
The plan usually includes consumption of cocktails / sparkling wine and strutting around like the girls from Sex and the City but often ends up with miminal purchases made and the consumption of fried chicken whilst you bemoan the poor service and long lines at the register.

Hey Stacey - I haven’t bought any gifts for Shaniqua and Tyrese yet, shall we hook up with Mandy and Victoria to do some power shopping?

The act of shopping around for men without undertaking further action, comparable to window shopping (look but don't touch)
"I'm perfectly happy with my man, but I do like to innocently look around! A little mandow shopping never hurt anybody!"

Gateway shopping is when you break down to buy "just one thing" after you told yourself you have to stop spending money. Much like breaking the seal when drinking, once you have purchased one item, you'll purchase five more items, spend money you don't have, probably will have buyer's remorse.
Me: I'm not going to spend any more money on leggings and purses. I have to buckle down and save money.
Also me: Ok I've got to go to the mall for just one thing - I need sandals and that's it. That's all I'm buying.
Also Me: Ok this purse looks really with the sandals, but I like that purse too - two purses won't be a big deal. It's just Coach...
My friend: It looks like those sandals sucked you into gateway shopping - you broke the seal!

Way back when I was just a little bitty boy living in a box under the stairs in the corner of the basement of the house half a block down the street from Jerry's Bait Shop.
