What's your favorite thing to shop for? 
Submitted by JadedButterfly.

Oooh, what a great question!  I pretty much enjoy shopping for anything EXCEPT swimsuits, and sometimes shopping for jeans sucks too.  I would have to say my favorite things to shop for these days are work clothes.  Yes, yes, I realize I don't have a job yet, but one day I will... Plus, I don't feel bad spending a little more on work clothes, because I tell myself I'm a grownup now and I'll have a grownup job, so I have to at least look like I'm somewhat competent!  Pretty much, I'm just looking to build a basic wardrobe: a couple of suits, lotsa shirts, sweaters, trousers, pants, etc.  I guess that's why I'm having so much fun with this kind of shopping... it's like a makeover since I'm pretty much starting from scratch, so it's like I'm reinventing myself (from slacker student to competent adult) by picking the clothes to project the image I want for myself.

Let's make a list.  What are 20 things in your life that you're grateful for?
