2. Women spend more when they’re younger, but men spend more as they age.
3. Men largely stay away from the beauty and baking aisles.
4. Men spend way more in convenience stores.
Snacks, sodas, beer, milk and other products found in convenience stores are purchased by men 57% of the time
5. Men buy; women shop.
Women think of shopping in an interpersonal, human fashion and men treat it as more instrumental. It’s a job to get done.
6. Customer service is a big one for women.
29% of women identify “lack of help when needed” as the top problem to their shopping experience.
7. Men spend less time per trip but take more trips.

They also tend to spend more even though they purchase fewer items.
