How To Control The Shopping Bug

Updated on: 7 February 2024 7:01 pm

Carry a limited amount of cash with you and leave those credit cards home.
Don’t window-shop. That’s akin to going to a bar just to have a look if you’re a recovering alcoholic.
If you must window-shop, do it after stores have closed.
Make a shopping list and only buy what is on the list.
Stay away from advertising. Just remember they are only after your money.
Look the other way when you see the sign SALE.
Try taking a walk or exercise to control the urge to shop.
If you feel out of control, you probably are. Seek counselling, it’ll work out cheaper in the long run.
Remember too much of anything is not good.
