Shopaholic

I just watched the movie Confessions of a shopaholic with my roommate! 

Shopaholic is a term used to describe individuals who are addicted to shopping. Best example? Paris Hilton. Check out her closet!

I found in that page some habits that indicates a problem with shopping or spending:

• Shopping of spending money as a result of being disappointed, angry or scared.
• Shopping/spending habits causing emotional distress or chaos in one’s life.
• Having arguments with others regarding shopping or spending habits.
• Feeling lost without credit cards.
• Buying items on credit that would not be bought with cash.
• Spending money causes a rush of euphoria and anxiety at the same time.
• Spending or shopping feels like a reckless or forbidden act.
• Feeling guilty, ashamed, embarrassed or confused after shopping or spending money. Many purchases are never used.
• Lying to others about what was bought or how much money was spent.
• Thinking excessively about money.
• Spending a lot of time juggling accounts and bills to accommodate spending.

Have you experienced some of these? Maybe you are a shopaholic! ;)

Things that you want

If you say you're going to buy something, you're more likely to do it!

I was reading the news and I found out that stating an intention leads consumers to action and makes certain brands come to mind,  which then influences brand choices. The intention puts the intention-related brand to the front of consumers' minds and pushes other well-liked brands to the back until the consumer has accomplished the intention.

WELCOME!
