So, I went to the mall the other day to return something. I returned the item and left the mall with a blender and a pair of sandals. Ok, the blender I really needed but the shoes was an impulse buy AND it wasn't even on sale. I promised that I would not buy anymore shoes this summer unless I REALLY needed it. (Ask me what is REAL need, I eh know) I bought so many sandals/shoes last year, most of them were only worn once or twice, so I figured I shouldn't spend any money on sandals this year. I'm on my third pair and summer eh even start yet.

So, just when I decided that I would return the shoes....my friend sends me a Nine West coupon. So now you know I returning the shoes AND buying them back with the coupon.

Ladies, do you just give in to your shoe obsession or is there a way to stop? No really, I need to stop buying shoes, not another box could fit in my closet. Imagine, I have to sneak my shoes in the house when I buy them because if my boyfriend only see me come home with another pair of shoes, he'll probably return it himself.

I would say to just stop going to the mall for a while but there is always on-line.

Perhaps there should be an Imix support group because I have that problem.

Tuesday . . . Go to the mall to return something for $70.00. Come out with something that cost $150.00.

Yeah, I really think that I need to stay out of the malls. I only look at shoes online to see what's new but I don't buy online. I'd have to try on shoes first before I buy it.

its tough girl. i really believe that shopping can be an illness! *not saying you have one of course* just sayin that it is addictive.

I have to take a few things back myself....i went to zara the other day and went crazy..when i got home, i was like do i really need any of this?????? i have things i've never worn or do wear much just because they aren't in the front of the closet....

suggestion - maybe instead of not shopping at all for shoes, say, you can buy a pair every 3 months or something.....set a limit and then try to stick to it

I honestly do think I have a sickness

Honestly I would not spend alot of money on cloths because I wait till it have sale then buy clothes cause I HATE TO BUY SOMETHING TODAY FOR $40 and next two days yah see it for $15 so what I do i keep just the amount of money i need for the day in my wallet and it really helps in not spend impulsively. And I do have great controll in not using my cridit card.

I walk with very little cash on me. But with all the stores taking ATM/Debit/Check cards now, it doesn't help.

dougla u mus be my twin, i will do this over and over my boyfriend is forever making fun of me .... and dont let me see a sale on towels and appliances plssssssss i go crazy

shoes i have no problem buying a lot , i totally justify it because i wear a size 11, so i say well i have big feet never know when ill find shoes like that again blah blah... if i find the same pair twice i will buy it and save it for when the other get scuffed or looks too worn in .....all i can say is dsw and I are great friends..

my shoe buying record ... i bought 6 pairs of shoes in one trip, i felt guilty as hell but it felt oh so good, almost better than sex......this is so sick but nothin makes me feel like a new pair of shoes

And I thought I had problems. LOL. Girl you worse dan me.

well I'm giving in to my shopping disease this weekend
but I have plenty justification for it my firm is moving to a new location by April 19 & we were told they will be enforcing a new dress code my firm has always been very casual but now I'm being forced to dress more corporate & conservative
we not even supposed to be wearing open shoes in the summer now so I'll be on a rampage this weekend looking for pretty slingback shoes

I got put on a budget, where I only have a small amount of money to spend on clothing and shoes. The budget is so small it is negligible, but I have to make do. I wait for every possible sale from every possible store. I can't buy anything at full price or that will be my item for the month

I have to say that since getting married I got much better about spending. I dont want to hear hubbie's mouth so I just try to spend within the budget, of course that means I go over by at least $100 each month, but I am trying. And yes, I sneak bags into the house too.

My best friend and I go shopping every year on black Friday, day after Thanksgiving and I just go ballistic at the outlet malls.

*Stands up... looks around shyly*

"My name is Kinky and i'm a shopaholic"

Really.. imagine on saturday I buy a pair of adidas on sale (and u know sales are sometimes orgasmic they so good!) i well proud of myself. Why yesterday i go to Macys and buy a cute pair of reebox.. FULL PRICE! I HAVE A PROBLEM! and I need LICKS cuz i don't even wear sneakers that often. I certainly cannot wear them to work, and on the weekend I don't wear them to go out.

They are tooo cute though..

dougla, spend yah d@m money on whatever u like. my hubbie always make fun of me by saying "you looking good walking down the street. dressed to the max and not a red cent in yah pocket. broke a$$" but i say that's alright at least i'mk looking good. no one would ever know that i'm broke. so again, i say spend yah money. if it's a gucci bag for $400, if u like it and want it, get it! nuff said. *debates on whether to file for bankruptcy*

Gap is infamous for that!

I always keep my blasted reciepts for juss in case, YES I WILL BRING IT BACK AND GET A PRICE ADJUSTMENT!!

But honestly, I've found myself purchase items and look @ it twice when I get home and say lawd, I HAVE TO BRING IT BACK!!
I think I've come to terms w/ my shopping and been doing some what well!! OH LAWD: MY NAME IS EMPRESS AND I WAS A.. A SHOPAHOLIC!!!
