I DO go on shopping sprees, but luckily I've managed to avoid Amazon ... so far. But I did hit that fatal last click on a order of exotic herbs the other day.
I like to buy locally, so I ran up a bill one day for $120 on CDs, then found two of them I didn't like at all. So then I went to the second-hand store with those & a few others, meaning to sell them for cash, as I'm cashflow challenged at present. But then I said "credit" at the crucial point, so I walked out with 6 more CDs. Is that manic or just impulsive??
I also have been buying furniture that I "need", but that could easily have been postponed for a few months.
