Why don't some people like making lists?
Candidato
I think some people dislike making lists because they prefer to have more flexibility in their daily routines. For example, they might feel that a list restricts their ability to adapt to unexpected changes. So because of this they avoid being bound by a fixed plan and like to decide what to do spontaneously.

Do you prefer to make a list on paper or your phone?
Candidato
I prefer making lists on paper because I find it easier to organize my thoughts that way. Writing things down by hand helps me remember tasks better, and I enjoy the feeling of physically crossing items off the list. Although using my phone is more convenient. I'm quite old school and like the traditional method.

✓ However, I often end up buying things that aren't on my list because I get tempted by new products or special offers.
The phrase 'new product' should be plural 'new products' to match the plural noun 'special offers' and to correctly express multiple items. Using singular 'product' here is incorrect because it implies only one product, which is inconsistent with the context.
