Faux-Shopping

The activity of placing clothes and items into your electronic shopping bag, or actual shopping bag and simply not paying for them when you reach the end of your travels.
This could even go as far as, going to the checkout to pay and then simply walking away when the items have been scanned in.
In addition, this could be done to the annoyance of the shop assistants.
''Hey Pete, are you really going to buy all those copies of Katie Prices current autobiography?!?!''

''No, don't be ridiculous, im Faux-Shopping! There's so many copies of this book, I thought I'd give the shop assistants something to do with there time.''

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
