In reply to How many have spending problems?, posted by Dinah on March 23, 2006, at 11:14:18
Great thread, Dinah!
I actually avoided joining this thread because I have such a tendency to overspend, especially when I'm feeling better. "Depression Decreases Personal Debt" - can you imagine if that were true?? It is for me.
I try to do comparison shopping as much as possible, and look for free shipping. Somehow, those online retailers also have minimum spending requirements in order to qualify for the free shipping, which only encourages me to buy even more... but I usually can it to within a buck or two of the requirement. So that helps.
And I have never bought anything on eBay. I must be the only north american resident with internet access who is too scared of that place.
I think a mutual support group here would be great. I'm in.
