People’s shopping habits depend more on the age group they belong to than any other
factors. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (2016/04/30)
范文:
Shopping has become a national pastime in many countries and people’s buying behavior
has recently received long overdue attention as a social issue. It is seemingly evident that
young people have different shopping ideas, compared with the elders as they pay more
attention to enjoyment and pleasure in their shopping experience, while elder people attach
more value to actual shopping results and commodity price. Still, I believe it is arbitrary to
jump to the conclusion that age imposes the major influence on people’s buying habit.
In addition to age, gender is an indispensable factor researchers cannot afford to ignore
when they attempt to dig into consumer behavior. Generally, shopping is ideally the hobby of
the females. Females “love shopping”, they are naturally programmed to invest in their
desires and relish happiness in return. As study says, “Men buy for their needs and women
shop for their wants”. When shopping, females also behave in a different manner as that of
the males. They like their female friends to accompany them whereas males prefershopping
alone. Furthermore, the needs, processes, and selection that the human brain goes through when
making a purchase are often far more complex than the buyer might imagine. A bunch of
other factors such as personal history, cultural considerations and psychological factors
need to be taken into account. Some people buy certain brands to support their personal or
professional image. Specifically, some buy products that are either perceived as fashionable,
trendy or high class or that fit into a particular subculture or peer group. Some people make
their purchase decision when tempted by product variation and price competition, as they
are prone to be persuaded by those promotional strategies and tactics such as posters and
banners during the sales period, advertising bursting in the radio and television, which is
quite common among all age groups.
Based on these insights, there is a need to examine the phenomena in a further and more
comprehensive context. Before that, I am inclined to believe it is the interaction of these
factors that shapes a person’s purchase pattern and dictates how they make buying
decisions
