If you are a consumer misunderstood, criticized by all for spending hours hitting the shops leg, there is already a plausible justification for withdrawing the credit card and go shopping. A ninth study reveals that women in the habit of walking to buy is very good for your health and generates an energy expenditure of 15,000 calories per year.

According to the poll, conducted by Walls Solero Exotic and performed with British consumers, women go to find the perfect outfit, the purse that exactly matches the shoe or that different accessory is equivalent to almost 290 km, ie, the same distance in seven marathons.

But some evil habits can put in check the power of slimming shopping. A third of surveyed usually eat treats while shopping, such as cookies, chocolates and biscuits. 31% of consumers admitted to ingest more than 250 calories while walking and one in ten of the respondents just eating over 1,000 calories in that range.

The survey also revealed that two thirds of women admit to being aware of their physical form in the locker room. 27% of them are so concerned about fit into the clothes that end up reducing portions and even skip meals while they shop.

More than a quarter of surveyed claim that the company of friends is out of the question, but maiora relies on the opinion of their mothers and boyfriends.

And while online sales are steadily increasing, it seems that more and more women are concerned they want to exercise your legs while working also the wallet.
The survey showed that while many are tempted by the virtual shopping, the fact of walking at the time of purchase to be considered a valid exercise encourages 58% of consumer spending shoe sole and not the keyboard keys.
