I think our society sometimes looks the other way when people have a shopping addiction, but in some respects it can be just as damaging as drug addiction, especially when it becomes a huge financial drain and starts affecting others.<br /><br />Why don't we just make shopping illegal?<br /><br />That'll fix the problem right, the same way it does for drug addiction? Then maybe some teenagers will experiment a little bit with shopping, but most will grow out of it.Alex Zorachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08335878680429494039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-30306851039650611292010-04-22T08:14:31.607-04:002010-04-22T08:14:31.607-04:00Your husband has a good eye too - with both hubby ...Your husband has a good eye too - with both hubby and your Mom looking, you're sure to have lots more great tea finds.<br /><br />It is sad when a pleasant everyday activity like shopping becomes a life damaging addiction.
