The first thing you bought was a flight ticket, not shirt or shoes.
''I flew to Japan I bought shoes and I bought a shirt what did I buy first?'' passes for a simple mathematical puzzle and certainly requires the use a form of deductive reasoning and inference to be answered correctly.
<h2>Further Explanation</h2>
There are three things in the sentence that is worthy of note: Firstly, the buying of shoes, secondly, the purchase of shirt and thirdly, ''flew to Japan''.
A careful consideration must be based on what you bought that enabled you to get to the Japanese country. It is a known fact that if one must fly to another country, then a flight ticket must be purchased. To arrive at the correct answer, the only thing that enables you to get to the country to buy shoes and shirt was a flight ticket you got at the airport.
If the flight ticket was not purchased, even with your money with you, to buy the type of shoes and shirt you wanted to buy from Japan, you would not have been able to buy those items.
Therefore, if you flew to Japan to buy shoes and a shirt, you will have bought a ticket first.
