Answer by apopkaflowerchild
I only get a bit of it right after Christmas. I get so addicted to buying Christmas gifts that I’m still wanting to shop and buy after the holidays are over. The only way that I get over it until the next year is to just stay away from the stores .

YES

I’m told lots by my mum and dad that whatever i want to do has to always spend money… and i LOVE going shopping…

Just give yourself pocket-money – a little each week/ or month and only spend that little bit on shopping…
