So I was knocked sideways when I saw a survey that thrilled me so much, I read it twice!
The basis of this revelatory read was that shopping can make your slim- oh yes! Apparently, during the course of a year, the average woman takes a trot round the shops over 130 times and that can result in 48,000 calories being burnt off over the twelve months.
Clearly if that's based on an 'average woman', then a shopaholic is going to be shedding a lot more pounds and ounces in her quest for the perfect purchase!
Yes, I know, there is a flaw.
For people like me who really shouldn’t be shopping, this is simply a case of shedding more pounds from my wallet than my waist.
But I have a solution…
If the shopping alone burns all those calories, just think how many more you’ll burn when you return all those goodies for a refund.
Good point Auntie Alexis - and one which has been missed by the tabloids completely!
