Oh I am the same, I love shopping and I especially love buying for other people but I now have to be very carefuldue to the current financial situation and I found a very funny little cure...then only way i can stop is to not go to the shops as much which is very hard so recently I joined facebook and they have an application called Yoville, it is a little like the Sims games...you have a character that you can make of yourself and there are several ways you can earn play money then you can spend it on things for the apartment that you have or clothing for your character and you can interact with other members...I love buying things for my little make believe apartment, there are so many things you can buy plus one thing I really do like is buying little gifts and send them to other players when they are nice or new to the game to help them decorate their own little apartment...I am so addicted to this game it satifies my spending addiction and all i am using is play money...I haven't been to the mall for three weeks and I am not even missing it...

Haha, I'm the same way. I think I spend more money on treating my boyfriend to gifts, than I ever do for myself. I think it's just the feeling of making someone happy by giving them a present.

I don't know how it might sound but I can only get things for the people I know when I know that they will get me something too. I was surrounded by selfish people for a while and now the only people I make sure to get something for when I go out is my baby and myself. I have a addiction for shopping for stuff in my house because I've never done it before. I love shopping for curtains and stuff like that. It's like I get to make sure my house reflects my style. You don't need help, you just need to be careful of who you are shopping for...

Wow, you are nice. I wish I could have the money to do that for others. Did you see the preview for the new movie Shopaholic? You should check out sometimes. I don't think you are like anything the girl in the movie is like but it is really a funny movie.
