social shopping
Friends influence purchases
Social shopping is buying as a shared activity rather than a solitary one.
It may mean shopping with friends in person, but increasingly refers to online experiences where users browse together, share recommendations, or purchase through social media platforms: I found this dress through social shopping on Instagram.
The term captures how commerce and social interaction have merged in the digital age.
