Shoppers at Westfield shopping centre, London

Are these shoppers 'showrooming'?

Have you ever visited a shop to see and test a product but then gone and bought it cheaper online? If so, you have been 'showrooming' - a new word to describe this activity.
In 6 Minute English, Rob and Finn talk about why people do this and how it is affecting the shops in our town centres. They'll also be explaining some of the vocabulary related to shopping.
This week's question:
Which of these countries has the most online shoppers? Is it:
a) The United Kingdom
b) The USA
c) Korea
