Its just to easy !!!! Amazon and several dept stores save your credit card numbers so all you do is click a button....... I have spent thousands in the last month or two. So far I can Always pay my bills but, I think the shopping addiction is like many addictions these days. Its just so easy to fall into. drugs are easy to get alcohol is everywhere. gambling is on the web. porn addicts can get it for free at the touch of a button. Everything is so easy these days...... My father always said... Is It a NEED or a WANT ??? Then he would remind me that a need was very basic food, water and shelter.......

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have all of my favorite places to shop on the Internet in my favorite box. Then, all I need to do is go to them and click away! It is too easy to spend loads of money on items that are not needed!

Wow! I know what you mean! and TV shopping is even worse! Did you know that we can actually get addicted to the endorphins that are released when we FIND something??? I read somewhere the that purchase isn't necessary...just FINDING it is the problem. Well, on the internet, finding things is so easy...its scary!

I used to get that little bit of excitement when I ordered something. Now it takes more items and bigger items to get that little rush. I guess that really is the sign of addiction !!!!!!!111

I'm hooked to online shopping. I can't stop it is way to easy and I don't have to leave the house. It has become a huge problem for me. I'm spending thousands of dollars a month on online shopping. My poor husband is worried sick and it's all my fault I just don't know how to stop.
