If you are driving, then pull off on a side street and park your car. Use your cell phone outside of the store. The other shoppers and the merchants will thank you because they don't want to hear your conversation. Distractions need to be minimal; if possible, try not to use the phone and drive.
Comfortable Shopping
Plan ahead. Know what stores you are going to and when they will open, and map out the drive. The internet is a good source for maps to any city. Yahoo maps and Map Quest maps are just a few. This will save fuel costs and give you more money for gifts. Not all of you can afford a GPS, but it is also helpful in helping you map out your shopping experience. Plan your meal time and what restaurant(s) you'll be visiting for your meal or meals.
