Are you a shopaholic? Or do you know someone who is?

I am so like your friend and it upsets me that I can't spend so much. I just have to buy something, anything! I usually buy clothes, bags and I'm a sucker for shoes. When I don't have money to buy any of these I'll settle for anything I can afford at the moment like a girl magazine, a handkerchief a new hair accessory or something. I guess you're right, it's an addiction. The first time I worked in a mall I never went home without carrying a shopping bag. I would always come up with something I have to buy or something I THINK I should buy. Sometimes I can control it. But sometimes I can't. Going to the supermarket with a grocery list doesn't help either. But now, what I do is carry cash. No credit cards for me. And I don't bring all my cash. I leave the cash and my ATM cards at home. I just bring enough money and a little extra it case something comes up.

well , I must say I am not that but ya i do spend a lot on clothes and accessories . I have friend who is shopaholic , she is like she goes shopping whenever she has free time and brings in something from a tee shirt to a jeans or pants or some belt or tie or even a scarf and also many cosmetics , she is fond of skirts and shoes too .

Oh mercy yes! I know a few people who are shopaholics. One lady loves to buy things on sale, whether she needs them or not. If she's going out to buy a new tablecloth, she won't just buy one, she'll buy several in one color and then one of each other color in the same pattern. What amazes me is that she has all of them still in the original wrappers in her closet, never opened years later. I agree, I think it's an emotional addiction, trying to fill up their hearts with temporary happiness.

I am not at all shopaholic.I feel its mental seakness.How people can waste time and too in shopping. Your friend is an ideal example of this.Anyway its great to see all these human beings.

I am a shopaholic. I can't resist the feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment after each time i went shopping. That is why i do not have credit cards and always pay cash.If i have credit cash then it will become a big problems for me.

i have a friend too...i dunno...i just think of that of wasting money...well me, i'm just buying something when i really wanted it or needed it

I am not a shopaholic but I do have a friend that loves to shop. She is always bringing home a couple pairs of shoes and probably has more shoes than my townhouse community combined. She is addicted to shoe buying more than anything. She admits she needs to stop but she loves shoes more than anything it seems and rarely see her wearing any of her shoes.
