Shopping for pleasure
The modern phenomenon of shopping for pleasure is closely linked
to the emergence of a middle class in the 17th and 18th-century Europe. As
standards of living improved in the 17th century, consumers from a broad range
of social backgrounds began to purchase goods that were in excess of basic
necessities The act of shopping came to be seen as a pleasurable pass-time
or form of entertainment.
