Get the General Shopmug. 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.

Get the shop localmug. 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.

Get the closet shoppingmug. A form of voyeurism frequently practiced by narcissistic, self-obsessed people with unconsciously low self-esteem while walking around or riding on public transport through a busy city.
It involves making snap judgments about the appearance of members of the same sex, e.g. clothes, hair style, build, accessories etc. The identity shopper then copies the appearance of people they like the look of, and so feel much better about themselves. Until they see someone better looking, then they copy them, and so on.
Over time, this cycle raises the standards of dress for a large part of the population which is why people in cities always look so much hotter.
