Shopping
“It is better to spend than to save.”
“I found it at half price in the bushes!”
Shopping is a sport that many men fail to comprehend the importance of and the skill involved in its existence. As a matter of fact, many men don't seem to realize the huge and critical role they play in the success of a money vacuum, known also as a shopping spree.
Money[edit]
As a rule, women will take advantage of your extreme desire to have sex with her right there in the store by schmoozing up to their manor woman and asking for money. Whether this be paper or plastic, it does not matter; this is the water that fuels the game. Without it the shopping spree is unsuccessful, as will any attempts to have the woman right there in the store.
Imagine playing a game of football without having had any water to drink. Without water you can't last very long and will result in you becoming very sick. Same with shopping: without money the game will not last very long and the woman can only look at things and feel sick of you.
Score Keeping[edit]
As in all sports, a score needs to be kept in order to see who wins. Luckily for women, the more money spent, the higher their score is. Credit cards are a good way of keeping score.
Unluckily for men, their score is how much money they have lost as a result of the woman's shopping abilities. If there's any money left, it will be spent somehow on a woman.
In this a certain balance is kept between the woman and the man, which can only be counterbalanced when the man loses all of his money and/or the female is satisfied with her purchases. If the man & woman has kids-there will be no money left and they both lose!
Unofficial[edit]
The basic formula, mostly used for small games such as purchasing a Cosmo, is derived by simply dividing the time spent purchasing the item by the money the item cost, plus the satisfaction received, like this:
This is the street formula, usually used when the woman is alone and has to spend her own money. But when shopping with a male companion (and his fortune), the game becomes much more nuanced.
Official Scoring[edit]
As mentioned above, the male's sex drive complicates the formula, adding strategy and challenge to the sport. The most commonly used formula is
where Search Time (T_s) is the time spent searching for the item in minutes, Find (F) is the number of items considered before the final item, Price (P) is the cost in $US, Discount (D) is the percent taken off the original price, Initial Satisfaction (I) is how good the woman feels about her purchase a minute later, on a scale from 1-10, Sexiness (X) is the official predetermined sexiness rating of the item from 1-10 (bikinis and panties score high, while pantsuits and food usually score low...except for bananas, lollipops and pinapples), Compliments (C) is the number of compliments given to the woman during the next 24 hours, and Girth Handicap (H_g) is the woman's waist size, used mostly only for shopping matches between friends. The shorthanded formula is provided here for your reference:
Variations[edit]
Many variations of the scoring formula are usued for different situations or competitions. When playing Florida-style, the girth handicap is dropped in favor of a Tan Handicap (H_t), which is measured as the woman's skin's albedo percentage times 25. When playing Alabama-style, the girth handicap is dropped and replaced by a bonus of 30 points if the item is edible. In the Wisconsin variation, a bonus of 20 points is added if the object dissolves in alcohol. In a Hollywood-style match, the craziest of all, a score of 1-10 is awarded for how easily the item is taken off PLUS a bonus off 35 points if it flashes the woman's business (or a mild 15 point bonus for cameltoe).
Technique[edit]
There is always technique involved in the art of shopping, whether it be communication between a sales clerk and the woman or between the man and the woman while shopping. Among these are the whine, the bargain, the please, the pout, the big eyes, and any sexy physical contact the woman gives the man.
