Are you a guilty shopper or a shopaholic?

I went to the store today and I bought a really expensive watch. Then as soon as I got home, I felt really guilty about it because I know I didn't need it, and it cost a lot of money. I usually just buy things for the sake of buying them, and then I feel guilty afterwards. I think it's called guilty-shopper-syndrome lol. I think I have it 100%! Does anyone else have that? Where you just buy something and then as soon as you get home, you feel guilty for buying it and then want to return it? Or are you a shopaholic who loves to shop too much, even if they don't need the stuff, but doesn't feel like they need to return anything?

I use shopping as therapy. I set a limit on what I can spend and rarely go over it. I tried going to a shrink and the guy wanted to see me for 'agressive treatment' LOL so I figured rather than forking out the $20.00 a visit fo rthe co-pay, I'd save that up ($160.00 every two weeks) and blow it at the mall. Hey, it works for me LOL

I love to shop! And I do consider myself to be a shopaholic, however, I do not buy things that I do not really need. Sometimes, I have bought things and never used them and didn't want to return them, so I give them away. I do not like having useless/wasteful things. So, even though I love to shop, I usually only get the things that I need, earned, or really want. I hate having too many things and clutter. Not a guilty shopper, but a wise shopaholic.
