About a month ago, I went to the mall in search of a few of the items on my shopping priorities list. Since I was looking for very specific things, I probably walked into and out of close to half of the stores in the mall. During the process, I observed many other shoppers and later jotted down a few notes to potentially explore in a future post. When I shopped again this past weekend, I was reminded of my impressions from the June excursion.
In today’s post, I write from the perspective of a recovering shopaholic who has emerged enough from my compulsion to see it in a different light. While it’s true that I am not yet completely recovered (that may take a while…), I am sometimes able to view the folly that shopping can be with the wise eyes of an outside observer. It is my hope that my observations will be helpful to you and will provoke both deep thoughts, as well as lively discussion for those who wish to chime in!
Do you shop til you drop but not have much to show for it?
