The term "regular purchases" refers to a pattern or habit of making frequent, ongoing buys. It can imply that someone makes consistent and routine purchases over time for their personal use or consumption, rather than making occasional one-off purchases. These regular purchases could be anything from groceries, clothing items, household supplies, gasoline, to subscriptions such as magazines or streaming services. The frequency of these purchases can vary and may depend on the individual's needs, preferences, or lifestyle.
