to go through your closet looking for clothes you forgot you owned. sometimes happens when you're short of cash, sometimes happens when you lose weight and discover a bunch of clothes that fit once again.

When a shallow narcissistic person wants revenge really badly and the local cops won't do anything. They then go cop shopping from district to district until they can file false charges and police reports. Usually practicing their lies from cop to cop as they go district to district around the area they actually live in.
Carol Baskin couldn't get any Tampa judges to do anything about The Tiger King, so she went cop shopping around Florida until she found a judge that would help her sue him.

Adoring Fan: “Oh, Handyman, how did you become so incredibly knowledgeable in the handy arts?”
The Handyman: “Ever since I was in diapees, I’ve been formulatin’ and calculatin’ to come up with the best shortcuts for just about anything handy. I refer to each pearl of woody wisdom in my handy bag of tricks as a Shop-Hack.”

I was tired of having to take the subway into the city, then the PATH to New Jersey, just to spend time with my girl. So I decided to stop all that bullshit, we broke up, and now I only shop local.

Shopping Theory is the concept that applies to both life in general and shopping itself. If you’re certain of something, you just know. If you see something you absolutely love, you won’t even look at the price tag because you know you want it. If you question it at all, even if it’s on clearance, put it back - you don’t need it. Same goes for everyday life decisions; if you question it you can do without. When you know, you know.
I found a dress that was on clearance but after trying it on and shifting around I couldnt make up my mind if I needed it; because I questioned I applied Shopping Theory and put it back despite the sale price.
