I love stuff! I love to shop. I think i get this from my mom, the person who has bought almost everything from TV infomercials. Does anyone out there "suffer" from this disease? Do you buy WAY too much and not need most of it?

Lol thats definitly me, I will buy almost anything and everything, mostly clothes and purses. I will have to admit that I have bought things off infomercials, and they did not work lol. I definitly buy way too much and can say I dont need most of it. Its fun buying it though =)

I agree that it is fun to buy stuff. I don't know why spending money makes me happy.

You can never have too much STUFF. I am a FANATIC when it comes to clothes and toys for my 6 month old. And I personally cannot pass up a great pair of jeans or pants...u see i'm on the thin, short side so not a whole lot of retailers carry anything that fits me. So when I finally find something that does, I HAVE to get it!

I know alot of people who are like that when it comes to their kids. I was, and still am, like that. You better watch it as you child gets older though because you may end up with a house full of toys, like me. :) Make sure you get rid of a toy often or whenever you get a new one because when your child gets older, picking up toys will wear you out. I promise. I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old.

budgetary constrains don't allow me to be a shopping maniac, but i enjoy window shopping a lot. in fact, when i get depressed, i simply hit the malls, but i don't buy anything. i find pleasure just looking at stuffs.

Shopping is my therapy too. I think alot of women use shopping as one way to feel good.

Stuff-a-holic, I love it. Yes that would be me. It's terrible, isn't it. I have so many things that I don't need, don't use and have no space for. I have this terrible need to buy things. I think it's the packrat in me from my mother and my "it's on sale" from my father. I guess I was doomed from the beginning...lol

I think we may be related. LOL!! I agree, it is a terrible thing. I am an "if it's on sale, I gotta have it" shopper too.

I have a problem with knee high boots! I can't stop buying them even when I don't need them! I have around 40 pairs!

Lol so in other words a shopaholic. There actually is a mental condition that classifies people as a shopaholic, when you just can't stop buying stuff. Lol I don't know if I would be classified as that, but I do spend wayyy too much money on things that I either don't need or things that I already have too much of. I wonder if there's a support group for people like us? ;)
