意思
The act of buying things.
文化背景
Haggling (mặc cả) is common in traditional markets but rare in modern 'trung tâm mua sắm' (malls). If you see a price tag, don't haggle! Livestream shopping is huge. People spend hours 'mua sắm' by watching influencers on TikTok or Shopee. ‘Sắm Tết’ is a sacred ritual. It's believed that buying new things brings fresh energy and luck for the new year. Shopping is rarely a solo activity. Vietnamese people love to go 'mua sắm' in groups of friends or family as a social outing.
Use 'đi'!
Always remember to add 'đi' (go) before 'mua sắm' to sound more natural when talking about the activity.
Tone matters
Be careful with 'mua' (buy) vs 'mùa' (season). If you say 'mùa sắm,' people might think you're talking about a 'shopping season' (which exists, but isn't what you mean).

Online shopping terms
Learn 'chốt đơn' (to finalize an order). It's the slang term everyone uses when they decide to buy something while shopping online.
The 'Open' Customer
If you are the first person to 'mua sắm' in a shop in the morning, you are the 'người mở hàng.' Sellers will be extra nice to you because they believe you bring luck for the whole day!
