    This is not for those who CAN resist shopping
    I want this to be full of stories of those who, went in just to buy a pair of socks, and ended leaving with three bags of stuff, STORY TIME




    and i want Kontradictions just to post his funny little image that he's got taged to his replies






    my story
    this weekend I wanted to go shopping, but at the same time i know i should be saving money.
    So i decided not to go into any clothing or shoe shops

    I ended up leaving with 2 puzzles (one is a present for my aunt), tons of kitchenware, and a gift for my mom
    I left with like 5 bags of stuff.
    Most of it was on sale, or from a dollar store, but in the end I still ended up spending over 100$ that day

    Lol....smallrini...
    i have a shopping disease too....
    every time i go to the shopping mall even during a short lunch break i have to buy something haha

    last weekend was my last time shopping in sydney....i went all out...
    which i kinda regret cuz im gonna have a hard time when i go back to my home country

    its kinda weird....but my mother always say to me that i dont feel "on lok" (at ease) as long as i havent spent the last penny in my pocket....=/
    which is a really really bad habit of mine

    speaking of mothers
    my mom keeps getting on my case about how my whole room (when in high school and college) was so full of stuff "so stop buying stuff"
    and now that I've moved out she says the same thing about my apartment

    but then i always get on her case because she is the SAME THING, and i tell her, "well you've got enough to fill up a whole house and use half the garage as storage for your old stuff"
    she can't throw ANYTHING away, she's even got shoes that she hasn't worn in over 20 years



    MissAngieCheekS Do you have a hard time throwing your stuff away also? cuase i know i do

Ending up being new shoes and 2 new sweaters (which one was on special >_>).... but didn't find any pants.. though, maybe that's cuz i didn't have time left to look for them... Bad me DD:

    i think its typical of most females to have this shopping addiction. It makes us feel guilty especially when we r not earning and living of our parents. I do get the occasional high where i just keep shopping. Thank god that doesn't happen often.

    ^EXACTLY lol.
    man i had the worst addiction, i used to work in retail, and when i leave work, i would always shop around for a new outfit to change into, just because i dno, the top i was wearing for work looked a bit plain, i would say "hmm, ill just get a different shirt" ends up with new shoes, a new bag, a new outfit, and hair accesories n stuff to do my hair, then leads to make up when i feel like sprucnig up a bit...
    the worst is when i do that, and im only going straigh home right after hahaha.
    good thing i cut down...lol
