All my shopping is done as Fiona.
@d44 At first my shopping was in male mode only. As I got more at ease going out as Cassie I would shop either way. As of the last couple years I started dressing as Cassie more and more and today full time, so I do all my shopping as Cassie.

That's a good question, Rachel. If I am to ever purchase women's clothes I'd be in guy mode and if I bring the clothes to anyone at the register I'd mention it's for my sister to take the suspicion away. 👍
@verlee I'd think that a cashier has seen it all before and heard just about every excuse going many times over.
If someone blurted out an excuse while I was running a checkout, I'd think just the opposite of what I heard. 😁
@harriette It's easy to think that way when you're a crossdresser. Haha. There's no need to worry about what a cashier may think when using a self-checkout. This is why I use them. 🙂

I'm old enough that I don't care what other people think. I do not only shop in male mode, I even try on some things like high heels or long women coat while male mode.

I have done both, but prefer to shop en femme. It is just more fun.
I love shopping as Lauren. I'm sort of impulsive and this extends to shopping. Seeing something in person has so much more impact on me than looking at it on a website. For me, the first time I stripped down to my bra and panties to try on a dress in a store fitting room was an amazing experience. I have never had an issue with sales associates helping me out. As others have mentioned, their interest is making sales toward their quotas.
I usually shop in Male mode and never had any issues with sales asscoiates they have been very nice and helpful to me, I always make it clear that I am shopping for myself, Though I have recently have shopped en femme as well
Always whilst dressed as Joanna. It’s so much more fun that way.

I buy my clothes from home online in cd mode 🙂! My recent go to is eBay and since I know my dress 👗 size now and what type of dresses I like to wear, it has become very easy to buy clothes I will actually wear!! Plus there are many female clothes to choose from ☺️!!
I’m currently relaxing in Womens Disney Mickey sweatpants and a cute blouse 👚!!
I've always shopped with my non-supportive wife for her needs so I've had no problem shopping for Berta in my male attire, as seen by the public. Many times I was fully encased in fine satin lingerie and discovered a few times 
by a sales associate who came in dressing room while I was trying on!
I voted for CD mode but that wasn't true just a short year ago. That is because I never went out dressed until then so any shopping had to be in guy mode.
Now though, since I do go out, I actually feel weird about shopping in guy mode. Not weirder than I used to mind you but weird in the sense of "I could be Natalie while I do this" and it feels like a lost opportunity if I shop in guy mode.
I will if I have to or if I happen to be out and see something, but intentional shopping for Natalie is done *as* Natalie 🙂
