Parent shopping

When children ask one parent for something and get a 'no', so they ask the other parent the same question hoping for a different answer. (This can also be applied to the workplace with subordinates and their bosses).

The kids did what? They have to stop parent shopping.

Thumbnail Shopping

Online shopping with no intention of buying anything. Just admiring the product in the thumbnail, maybe looking at a few color options, and then scrolling by. Often done by college students who can't afford new stuff but can afford to ignore their professor for a little while.

Erin always sits in the back of her lectures so she can go thumbnail shopping when she gets bored with organic chemistry.

Click Shopping

Essentially the same as “Window Shopping”, but you’re adding things to cart you want buy but never actually check out. Ultimately these items end up in a Save for Later List and forget you ever even wanted it in the first place.

Me: why do you keep so many things in the cart on on Amazon.

Friend: oh did you see that? I just be Click Shopping
