Shopaholic
Do you consider yourself a shopaholic? If so, what do you find yourself buying a lot of either uncontrollably or with some form of control? Type of clothes, food, gaming, etc etc - these are just some examples that it can be.
For me it's definitely video games. Whenever I see a sale on a game I tend to buy it immediately, especially if it's under $10. I like to hunt for achievements so I'm bound to binge spend hear and there. I'd like to think that I have a good handle on it, but my wallet begs to differ lol. |
I'm only a shopaholic when it comes to snacks... Especially in Asian markets, let me loose in there and I'll come out with 50 dollars worth of snacks. I just can't control myself around wasabi peas and rice crackers. Other than that, I'm pretty wary of spending my money.

I am a shopaholic. There is no doubt about it sadly.
I am so bad at saving money and I would literally blow a 100 pounds in a day if given to me. I mostly spend it on clothing/makeup and food. |
I think I've had one small problem with a couple grand on video games/consoles for others. Otherwise, I've taken good care of my money.

Just with online shopping. Someone should take my debit card away and ban me from ebay.

I think I'm a shopaholic
I can't control myself from buying snacks and video games. I'll end up spending my saving in my piggy bank T-T |
I'm too poor to be a shopaholic. Thankfully I don't really enjoy shopping anyway. I'm really just a get that one or two things and be done with it kind of guy.

I am when it comes to Vocaloid merch other than that no.
|
I'm the opposite of a shopaholic. I compulsively save money. I must have some kind of scarcity fear.
But, on the up side, it lets me travel and be spendy and not worry about money for like a week or two out of the year. |
I am. I shop so much that I tend to overspend, and because of this I don't allow myself to shop more than a few times a month. :/

I'm a terrible shopaholic when it comes to video games; I will buy literally everything that looks even remotely appealing to me, even if I don't necessarily need it and probably won't play it for months. Although in my defence, a lot of the games I buy have limited stock, so if I don't get them immediately I'll have to hunt for them later...and it's nice having these things to hand.
I've taken to doing this with graphic novels recently as well, I have a huge Amazon wishlist of stuff I plan on buying and I'm slowly but surely making a massive dent in it. I've gotten better with handling my money, but I still do a terrible amount of shopping both online and offline. See, want, buy. I get antsy if I'm not expecting something in the post. It gives me something to look forward to every day. |
What I tend to spend a lot of money on is collectibles. Not just the standard forms of merchandise, like plushies or statues, but everything that I like collecting. Video games, Pokemon cards, and books are my downfalls, and where most of the spending money goes.
I'm also a shopaholic because I just like going out shopping. I've always liked the entire idea of retail stores, and so I'm always interested in going out and seeing what stores are doing in terms of merchandising. It's also a good way to see new products that are out there that I never would have found in the first place. |
I have a tendency to impulse shop, but I have generally reigned that in unless I'm specifically making a trip or site visit to go shop, and I still know what I've got to work with for spending roughly. I do window shop a fair bit as well. My Amazon wishlists are are complex network I use to track what I want and what category of my interests it's in, and it totals to about 300 items across all lists. And that's not the only site where I've got a long and comprehensive wishlist, either.
I tend to spend my spending budget on games, manga, or other collectibles. Oh, and food. |
