What’s Wrong With Too Much Shopping?

Angie October 16th, 2006

If I had their kind of money, I would be shopping like they do! But, I’m definitely not that kind of shopper now.

Nothing at all wrong with compulsive shopping, as long as you aren’t going into debt and others can also benefit from your largesse! Consider donating the many, many, many thousands of items just gathering dust in your closet/second bedroom to charities or organizations that help women get back on their feet. That way you free up space for more lovely items and help others at the same time!

I agree with the study… I have such a shopping addiction that I had to rent a more expensive apartment just because of closet space. Well, as Samantha ( from Sex and the City) would most certainly say: What the hell!
I do not have Gisele Bundchen’s butt, Jen Aniston’s legs, nor do i have Scarlett Johansson’s boobs… I gotta get me something that is going to give me star power, like my Loubotins or Fendi Bag!

yeah definately an addict!!!…i go shopping at least two times a week and i can’t walk out of a store without buying something…even if it’s something i’ll never wear…and my biggest addiction of all is cosmetics and shoes…at one point i owned 221 pairs (ranging from $40-$400)!!!

I think you must to be very bored and have a very empty life to buy so much.

Ah! and a lot of money an FREE time.

I love shopping, but i spend my money, no credit cards, or stores cards, I had to get rid of them, I am dangerous when it comes to spending money in clothes, shoes, etc…but I do donate my clothes to salvation army or thrift stores !

“what’s wrong with too much shopping?” What’s wrong with trying to fill the emptiness in your life with material posessions? Ever notice how quickly the *buzz* wears off and your newest acquisition is forgotten?

I’m addicted to the thrill of a good buy! I love to find great things for a good deal. I hit Ross at least once a week and get name brands for cheap; shop-a-holic on a college budget! I also go shopping if I’ve had a hard day as a stress release. I figure since I don’t spend my money on drinking or smoking I’m justified in my addiction.

You’re dead for a real long time
You just can’t prevent it
So if money can’t buy happiness
I guess I’ll have to rent it
