Is it safe to have fun shopping?

I really don't know. I really didn't have much liking to shopping. I also don't know why man girls love shopping too. I always get easily tired of walking just looking at and buying stuff at malls or boutiques. Sometimes I am wondering where the girls get their energy in walking shop after shop looking for their dresses. So, to sum it up, I don't like shopping at all and I consider it as dreadful rather than fun. Just my two cents in here.

It might be addictive yes, so better control our money before going shopping. People who fear that they will spend more than they are allowed to, should not own a debit card! Also limits can be set on credit cards to control one time and daily shopping. If it's getting really serious, the addicted person should see a doctor, like with any other addiction!

I love to go out and shop for things, but am unable now to go out unless someone is with me. I use to go shopping each and every week and I loved it.I think it is ok, as long as you set yourself a budget, as that way you will not find money worries at any point. I do think some people get into a muddle when they spend their money and not pay their bills.

Shopping can be fun, shopping can help us reducing stress but shopping can be harmful especially if we are being impulsive buyer it wont be good because you might outbudget and it might get you in debt too. When I go shopping, I'll make sure that I buy what I need, I bring a note of list what I need to buy to prevent me from buying something that I dont really need. Shopping is fun when we can find something is cheaper than our estimated budget, I do like comparing one shop to another shop to find cheaper price.

shopping as a habit? no.. i will broke in a month if I have that habit Shopping can takes all the money in your saving in second, don't make it as habit. I go for shopping only for some certain need likes I need new clothes, shoe or bags, buying girl's stuff or grocery.

Shopping can be really ting, that why you have to put limits on how much you spend! If you shop too much, you will not have enough money to pay the bills and things you REALLY need! Be careful of your spending!

Shopping can become an addiction and I have read about people who used shopping as a cure when they were depressed and they ended up spending far too much money and got into debt because of their shoppping addiction. I think that a shopping addiction can be dangerous if it gets out of hand. Last summer my husband and I discovered that our savings account was almost empty because we had spent far too much, and we decided to cut back on the money that we spent on shopping and similar things. We chose to use cash stead of credit cards. With a credit card it can be hard to keep track of the expenses, but when we use cash we don't have that problem. When the money is gone, it is gone and we won't be able to buy new things the rest of the month.

Yes, shopping is quite addicting; however, you can also control your urge if you really want to save money. Before you buy something, try to ask yourself if you really need that thing. If not, buy it next time, if you already need it. You should know what to prioritize so that you'll not become a shopaholic. For me, I guess I'm lucky that I'm not a shopping addict. I usually buy things one at a time. If I really, really need the thing. I budget my money wisely because it's difficult to earn money.

It´s safe to go shopping (or even to go to a casino once in a while and gamble) if you don´t become an addict and can afford it. I have heard of people that have used up all the credit in their credit cards and bought something that they didn´t really need or wanted so much. I like to go to casinos. The way I do it, I only go to a casino when I´m on vacations. And I only take with me the money that I would spend elsewhere that day (such as enough for dining out or see a show I can afford). I leave my credit card at home.

i'm not addicted to go in shopping i usually go shopping with my friends and if i have something important to buy in mall. but they are times i really want to go to shopping just for fun but i used to remind myself to have a limitation i don't want to buy something just only a want not a need ;)
