Most British housewives love window shopping Most British housewives love window shopping. This is a pastime when you just walk round the shop and look at those beautiful things that are displayed in every shop window. Some women can spend the whole day looking at everything they meet on their way. But it would be a mistake to say that men are against this kind of shopping. You will certainly see a lot of unmarried couples, husbands and wives, or just friends wandering about different stores without any ideas of buying something in the end. Shop managers know about this feature of people’s character and try to benefit from it. They usually place the most unusual, most beautiful or most attractive items in their shop window to attract as many customers as possible. Sometimes you’ll see something which has absolutely nothing to do with the things you can buy in the shop. For example, if you see a sheep dummy pretending that it peacefully eats grass, do not expect to buy a nice piece of meat or a toy sheep. Most probably this shop sells wool and woolen clothes. There is another point about shop windows. As managers make them look better to attract people, streets become more colorful and picturesque.
