I'm so ashamed to admit that lately I've bought several things impulsively :( I thought this tendency of mine was under control and improving, but it seems it isn't! I used to be a compulsive shopper when I was younger, and that's why I saved nothing in the past. Now I must admit I'm better at saving! I fell off the wagon last week tho :( I can't resist when I see something I like on sale, specially when it comes to clothes. I just love buying new clothes, specially for winter... but now that I think about it, I think I've spent a lot on clothes lately! I hadn't bought new clothes in 2 years, so I guess this isn't so bad.

What about you guys? Have you bought something compulsively? How often do you buy new clothes or shoes? Have you bought something without thinking lately?

With regard to clothes,I'm afraid manufacturers would go bust if they relied on people like me. I buy clothes and shoes only as I need replacements.
I'm more likely to be tempted to buy plants that take my fancy for the garden,than a new coat.But then I'm old and the days of looking good and fashionable for the opposite sex are long gone.:D

I am not a compulsive buyer and I am not alarm if I see many signs of "sale" or "discounts" inside the mall. When I am in a shopping mall I know how to control myself when I see things which I like I can manage to decide if I will buy or not to buy it but instead just look at it only. I always consider my budget first and what are the primary things important for everyday use in the house is what I should buy first rather than those clothes and personal accessories. And if ever there is an excess money that is the only time I will pamper myself of buying the things I want for myself. :)

Generally speaking, I am not a compulsive shopper. But I occasionally buy something which are not necessary, especially when I encounter a really good deal.

I wouldn't say that I am a compulsive shopper as I don't always tend to go to a shop and compulsively buy something when I am in there. I will at odd times buy something if I know I have the money and I see it but I am quite good at not buying things if I know I do not have the budget for it.

I used to buy things on the spur of the moment. The novel coronavirus pandemic, though, made me realize that saving money is more vital than making unnecessary purchases.
