kyamaloom said...

Penis enlargement products!
Cheap condoms.

APOO said...

#pavi - come on! women have to shop for lingerie with men! Not like some men you dont know or are just friends with... but your better/tobebetter half types.

#Neeku - generally its not the # of packs of sanitary napkins you buy but the way you behave which makes us feel she might have PMS for life....

Vrijilesh Rai said...

Men should never shop for jewellery wid women.. its sickening and nauseating to see the abuse of so much money on those tiny pieces of metal..

Me-too said...

LAXATIVES! hehehe
GAS X
Antifungal cream
...and am thinking of other stuff...

Ankur said...

Man: anything expensive!!!
Woman: nething Cheap!!!

lolzzz!!!

Cheers!!!

You Buy Anything I don't Care..
Coz' at the end of the day its not about shopping..
Its about spending time together...

Aneesh said...

i can think of a lot and nothing depending on whom I'm with

Solitaire said...

@ Apoo,

Heheh!! Good one. I would die of shock if my man bought those! I would think that he has certain tendencies that are secret from me.

Solitaire said...

@ Neeku,

Realllllllllllllllllly? I have made guys run out and do that for me.

Heeheeeheee!

gP said...

yep thats Sneha...fresh from her Colgate advertisement. say EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. :D

Solitaire said...

@ Pavi,

Why not????????????????
I think shopping for lingerie can be best done WITH men unless of course you want to surprise them!!

I knew of a guy who not only bought all sorts of products when we all went shopping with him but also served as our advisor in terms of facial care!!

Solitaire said...

@ Ghost,

Like everyone has?!

Solitaire said...

@ Sutta,

Penis enlargement products????????

You mean Viagra ke something else is also available?

Please educate me!

gP said...

yeh...it used to be my mom buying me clothes for deepavali a decade ago... now i just mastered the skills of shopping alone for crappy colored clothes.

Vishesh said...

impatients?

Solitaire said...

@ Keshi,

LOL! Your list is funny!

BTW the list that you have for guys...I don't think they can help buying all those when they set their eyes on them..girl or no girl! What say?

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

Logic?

Ankur said...

Logic... ummm...

coz if man buys expensive then woman have a reason to spend more from man's pocket...

and if woman buys cheap then man says... r u really my woman???
and then next time he can die out of sheer shock!!! :P

lolzzz

Cheers!!!

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

REALLLLLY? I thought men appreciated women who can shop practically (equals cheap).

Solitaire said...

@ Vishesh,

????????????

gP said...

food! thats right food...coz both will order the stupidest food when with a girl/guy. MUHGAHAHAHAH! im smart.

Solitaire said...

@ Vrij,

Those pieces of metal DO have good resale value as opposed to playstations and I-phones which are outdated within months of being in the market!!

Solitaire said...

@ Me-too,

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Solitaire said...

@ Ghost,

Does that mean that you will NEVER be going out on a dinner date and that if you do, you will choose not to order any food?

gP said...

hmmm...interesting...well it depends on when ur coming here...

Keshi said...

and plz Men do go to a Manolo Blahniks outlet when ur with ur women.

Keshi.

Keshi said...

Agree Sol. Men will be men. *rolling eyes*

Keshi.

Keshi said...

hahaha Ankur!

Keshi.

Keshi said...

**Penis enlargement products!
Cheap condoms.

Keshi.

Ankur said...

btw... exception are always there and i was lucky enugh to knew one!!! :D

;)

Cheers!!

AmitL said...

Hi,Sol,I see some interesting answers here...right from duckied pink boxers to lingerie to...:)ROFL.

Men:(In company of women): Avoid buying:
- girlie mags of the Debo,fantasy kind..

Women:(In company of men): avoid buying:

- Sanit. napkins(such a put-offer!!!LOL)

Can't really think of too many things..will update later...frankly,I think,the man-woman should be comfy buying any and everything together.:)

Preparation H

Anonymous said...

Ahemm...Solitaire,,,Viagra is NOT a penis enlargement product lol :P

Vrijilesh Rai said...

Resale value is important if u ever think of reselling those metal scraps.. u folks keep them in the locker to be used once a year and then back in.

At least we make full use of our gadgets. We rape them virtually, extracting every ounce of their worth!

Unknown said...

guy - smoke/weed
gal - anything...

Coz the fuss gals make and the time they take is absolutely killing! Besides I am being considerate of the fact they take awful lot of time to even get ready dress up and come out! :(

I'd certainly avoid goin shoppin with a gal... NO FRIGGIN WAY!

Nirmal said...

@keshi...

***hey Nirmal look there's a nice Diamond shop..lets go in there..aww ur such a sweet guy na?"**

"sweetheart look out for some medical shop i cant breath"....

lol

Chakoli said...

Men should never buy anything as a gift which they areabout to gift some other girl apart from there wife... It sure to lead arguements...;-))

and another thing... beuty products... dont u dare to buy them with women... they are sure to alff ;-))

women should never go for shopping of aloo kanda bhaajii.... ;-)))

It would irritae them fr sure:-))

gP said...

soon?!!! god! i need to start jogging now...

Solitaire said...

@ Chakoli,

Are you serious? I have ALWAYS gone grocery shopping with my men! After all men are so fussy when it comes to food. Its better to take them along and make sure we are buying what they really want to eat!

Solitaire said...

@ Iceman,

I am the fastest shopper ever!!

Solitaire said...

@ Vrij,

Are you kidding me? Have you not seen those hindi movies where they put jewellery on "girvi"?Have you ever seen them put Playstation on "girvi"?

Solitaire said...

@ Carolinagal,

What is preparation H?

Solitaire said...

@ Ghost,

Please take your mom shopping with you before I come. Don't want to see you in gaudy clothes!

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

All gone!!

Solitaire said...

@ Princess,

Me doing ok!
Why not gadgets? haha..
I know..super boring!

Solitaire said...

@ Nirmal,

Do you have diamond phobia?

Ankur said...

oh wow...

good news!!! :)

Cheers!!!

Preeti said...

Lingerie...and napkin...totally!

Chakoli said...

If u are going to supermarket...i guess its fine...

but to local bazaar... arrey kitna bargain karte ho tum log...;-))) tahts the dialogue...and I suppose men knows that what they like would only be cooked...:-)))

rantravereflect/ jane said...

well woman shouldn't shop with women, n vice-versa!!

cos we could do it all day, n they do it like for 15 mins.. max..
:)

Keshi said...

lol Nirmal!


**"sweetheart look out for some medical shop i cant breath"....

Its ok hunny..Im ur medicine. So keep me healhy n happy. Lets do that by going into that Diamond shop.


Keshi.

Keshi said...

Sol yes, its just that Nirmal suffers from Diamond phobia and he'll be ok once we get him to buy alot of diamonds. Thats the only way to kill the phobia.

lol!

Keshi.

ishqia said...

itchguard

A said...

arrey they help me with things (including a lot of the ones mentioned here :-P)
re...serious!

KP said...

shopping with woman??

its toughest thing on planet!

they make it sound like its rocket science.

I am not Exaggerating...its my personal experience from this paast weekend!

Stupidosaur said...

How about "Don't buy any outrageous excuse from the opposite sex", while shopping or otherwise.

@solitaire
busy. will take tag in a few days.

(Oh no! Following my own advice, sol might not buy the 'busy' excuse!)

ceedy said...

Most of it covered...

Just sharing a true incident -

A friend of mine who was out with this girl...who liked each other...and the duh - man instead of paying attention to what she likes...went ahaed and bought a gift certificate in front of her...guess for what - her birthday....well that did not go well....he ended up spending much more time, money and effort (shopping included) to get her back :)

Solitaire said...

@ Chakoli,

US mein toh chalega na?

Rià said...

Well i wud say lingerie, dental floss...and condoms! :P :D

Anonymous said...

Preparation H is an ointment for Hemorrhoids. Haven't u seen the commercials on TV?? They are hilarious!! They usually show a man sitting in a movie or on a date,,and he is wiggling around in his chair, lol..and then the 'voice' in his head says, "Should have used Preparation H" LOL!!!

Am In Trance said...

Forgot to say....
Such an amazing pic......

Are U That Girl...
Who comes in my..
Dreams.....!!!!

@ Preeti,

Why not lingerie? Would you not like to buy it with your bf or hubby?

Solitaire said...

@ Rantra,

Actually my men like to come shopping with me.I walk in knowing exactly what I want and walk out if that is not available or walk out in 10 minutes if it is!!

Solitaire said...

@ Keshi,

That is called "EXPOSURE THERAPY".

Look it up!

Neetal said...

Well if its guy like A-Poo... Unfortunately the symptoms can actually do last for life =D

Solitaire said...

@ Ishqia,

Do people actually go lingerie shopping with OTHER men other than their better half?????????

Solitaire said...

Who deleted what comment?

Solitaire said...

@ Am in Trance,

Maybe!

Focus focus....
You are deviating from the topic. :)

Solitaire said...

@ Carolinagal,

Sadly, I DO NOT HAVE A TV and have not watched any for the past 4 years.

Solitaire said...

@ Ria,

What's wrong with dental floss? VERY PUZZLED by that one!

Solitaire said...

@ Ceedy,

Truly DUH! How do these men manage to come this far?

Solitaire said...

@ Stupidosaur,

Busy with what??????????????????

Solitaire said...

@ KP,

Hehehe!! Please share your experience with us!

Solitaire said...

@ Anjuli,

They help you buy sanitary napkins, bras, panties, lingerie?????????

Solitaire said...

@ Samby,

PENIS PUMP??????
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKS! What is that???? Sounds scary!


And itchguard kyon nahi? When I had those damn allergies someone told me to use itchguard!

Pavi!!!! said...

@sol: i just came here to chk other comments n saw i have to reply to so many ppl!!!

@Keshi: Funny kyon???

@ishiqa: for me its not coz of the awkward factor!

@Apoo: hmm i'd rather do lingerie shoppin with my girl-friends. But ya, 'coz there are no gfs in the same place tht we live in, i'm forced to go wit hubby dear. He aint too bad but...
Also i was thinking men genrally..not abt my hubby!

@Ankur: i KNOW men have their fantasies..but i think they wld prefer surprising their women wit wat they hv bought for 'em instead of goin out WITH us to shop for 'em. Atlst my man works like that:)

Anonymous said...

Oh yes, I remember you saying that once..
In any case, no man/woman should buy Preparation H when shopping with the opposite sex.

Pavi!!!! said...

@Sol:

- Best done wit men??Really? Gosh they have like a 100 Qs! n i dont mind answerin 'em for a while, infact its entertainin.. but after that i want to do my shoppin!...u get wat i mean??
n like i told apoo..i prefer shoppin for lingerie with my gfs..but V is okay to shop with. When i read men, i wasnt thinking of V!!

ohh i know metrosexual men are in..but pls..men who wax, n do pedicure n manicure n compete with me on using scrubs n creams..i donno, thats a turn-off for me!

gP said...

hey! thats insulting...i know how to shop...

Keshi said...

**"EXPOSURE THERAPY".



thats it Sol!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

*kyon

Pavi wut does that mean?

Keshi.

Nirmal said...

@keshi...

keshi dont learn that KYON...tats a cuss word..

bad pavi..hehehe

ishqia said...

some people may be going.. god knows..

u know perhaps brother or close friend..

i never had such a chance..

Keshi said...

hehe Nirmal I just found out wut KYON means..WHY rite?



**@Keshi: Funny kyon???


Wut d u mean Pavi? r u asking why its funny?



Keshi.

AmitL said...

Hi,Sol-not a couple??whatever do you mean??*innocent smile*...explain,then,I'll answer.

♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥ said...

comment made me laughed out in burst :P

I actually never thot abt it.. :P
may be sexed up magazines..this make ur partner feel less important to u...

g-man said...

ummm...lesbo porn dvds?

KP said...

@sol...sorry cant share that..she`ll kill me...:). something which should not take an hour..took us 5 hrs....:). As a psychologist can you tell me what goes thru womens mind...when they are shopping?? write a post!! tell the audience!

Rià said...

I said dental floss coz things like this are abt personal hygiene and i think a guy doesnt need to knw so much abt wht do u use to be clean n tidy! :)

Solitaire said...

@ Ria,

If HE does not use dental floss himself, I don't want to be with him!!!!!

Its as good as buying soap or something!

Solitaire said...

@ AmitL,

Now I am confused! all that I am asking is if the boy and girl are in a platonic relationship, or siblings, or something....then??????

Solitaire said...

@ Ishqia,

OMG!!!!!!!! Never heard of anyone going lingerie shopping with a bro!!!

Pavi!!!! said...

@keshi..so sorry i forgot u don u'stand hindi...yes kyon is why.

n i was wonderin y u think im funny.

Keshi said...

Pavi its ok.


**n i was wonderin y u think im funny.

Keshi.

Keshi said...

**lol Pavi ur funny!


aww that one! LOL sorry I really meant that for Neeku's ans. I accidentally typed PAVI. SO SORRY!


Keshi.

Shruti said...

Deo. Deos for themselves. The fragrance we have is supposed to be our own.. of course they know it comes from something that was once in a bottle, but when they see us buying it, they remember the bottle everytime they get the fragrance.
:P
