× I used to like shopping but now it's I I'm not really keen on shopping because I'm getting old and I was a little bit fed up.
✓ I used to like shopping, but now I'm not really keen on it because I'm getting older and I was a little fed up.
Issues: incorrect repetition 'it's I I'm', awkward phrase 'a little bit fed up', and 'getting old' is acceptable but 'getting older' is more natural. Suggest using a comma before 'but' to join clauses and replacing 'shopping' with pronoun 'it' to avoid repetition. Use 'a little' instead of 'a little bit' for conciseness.
× I usually do compare price when I shop because I don't wanna spend waste my money so I usually take the price online and shop.
✓ I usually do compare prices when I shop because I don't want to waste my money, so I usually check prices online before I buy.
Plural error: 'compare price' should be 'compare prices'. Also 'wanna' is informal; use 'want to'. 'Spend waste my money' is ungrammatical; use 'waste my money'. 'Take the price online' is incorrect collocation; use 'check prices online'. Rearranged for natural flow.
× Not really. It's not difficult for my decision. When I shop I usually decided to buy quickly and I I know what I do.
✓ Not really. Making decisions is not difficult for me. When I shop, I usually decide to buy quickly because I know what I want to do.
Tense and structure issues: 'It's not difficult for my decision' is incorrect; use noun phrase 'Making decisions is not difficult for me'. 'I usually decided' mixes past with habitual meaning; use present 'decide'. Remove duplicated 'I'. 'I know what I do' should be 'I know what I want' or 'I know what I'm doing' depending on meaning; here 'I know what I want to buy' is most natural.
× I don't think always, uh, expensive products are better than cheaper one. It depends on time and it depends on products. Sometimes they have a big deal so you can get a good price and good products.
✓ I don't always think expensive products are better than cheaper ones. It depends on the time and on the product. Sometimes there are big deals, so you can get good products at a good price.
Errors: 'I don't think always' should be 'I don't always think' (word order). 'cheaper one' should be plural 'cheaper ones' to match 'products'. 'Depends on time' is vague; 'depends on the time' or better 'on the product'. 'They have a big deal' is incorrect collocation; use 'there are big deals' or 'stores have big sales'. Rephrase 'get a good price and good products' to 'get good products at a good price' for clarity.
