Is it a sin to go shopping today ( Sunday), i went yesterday but i didnt get a chance to get dress shoes which i need for school by tommorow, they’re starting to get alot stricter and i dont have any dress shoes at home that i could wear. I know i shouldnt be going shopping on a Sunday and i always go out of my way to make sure i don’t , but is it a sin if i do ?? And if it is , is it venial or mortal?
 
It is not a sin, unless you use your shopping as an excuse to cut back on your worship of God on Sundays.
 
Can’t think of any reason why shopping on Sunday would be a sin.

Here’s a plan for Sunday…get up early, go to Mass, eat brunch somewhere, go shop for what you need—while shopping, thank God for the abundance and offer a prayer for the poor.

God bless!

If the shopping is “servile work” then it should be limited. It does not have to be eliminated totally, only limited, if it is considered servile work.
