20 Thoughts Shopping Addicts Have Even If Their Bank Account Balance Is, Like, $20.20

In This Article:

I will be the first person to admit that I may have a slight shopping problemā€¦ OK more like a lot, but who's keeping track anyways?

I know that I am not alone though in my self-diagnosis as a shopaholic. I am sure that there are plenty of other compulsive buyers out there.

I mean I don't have several credit cards like Rebecca Bloomwood in Confessions of a Shopaholic, but I defiantly know that I have a hard time saying no to myself when I see something randomly.

That being said, here are 20 things that all shopaholics have thought before.

1.Ā Do I really need that?

This is that question that you ask yourself when you are trying to control yourself.

Ā 2. No, no I donā€™t

You think this when you are trying to talk yourself out of getting something.

Ā 3. Actually, yes I do

But then you realize how foolish you are being and that you do indeed need that item.

4.Ā Ā Oh my gosh just look at that

This is what you say every time you see something that you know you just can't go home without.

5. Iā€™ve never needed anything more in my life than I do this

How did you even live without it before?

Ā 6. This could have a ton of uses! I would use this all of the time!

Ā 7. Itā€™s basically an investment

I mean you are going to use it all the time!

Ā 8. OK, so I donā€™t really have the money to buy this right nowā€¦

That sad moment that every shopaholic has unless your one of the Kardashian/Jenners.

Ā  9.Ā But it may be gone before I can come back and get it. Iā€™m getting it.

10. This just feels so right

The mall is your home.

11. Walking out with tons of shopping bags is the best feeling. Why donā€™t I do this more often?

12. Wait, I NEED that!

Just as you are trying to leave something always has to catch your eye.

Ā 13. I donā€™t even know where this money is coming from

14. But does it really matter?

YES! Yes it does!

We are masters at deceiving ourselves.

15. I canā€™t stop thinking about that one thing I walked by 5 minutes ago. I have to get it.

16. This is honestly destiny. This was made for me.

Destiny I tell you!

17. Wait why is my balance below $25?

You think that someone must have stolen your credit card or something. That couldn't have been your fault.

Ā 18.Ā Ā OK, my bank account is crying

Literally.

19. I need to stop doing this

20.Ā Ā But it just feels so good.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
