The Urge to Splurge
I really need to pick up this book and then maybe not. What fun would it be if you quenched that urge to splurge? Maybe I simply need to control that urge! Yeah, that’s it.
I have the best of intensions… honest. I go to the mall and tell myself that I’m only going to spend this much. But it never happens. I never go below that amount… ever, and more often than not, I go over it by about fifty dollars. Not good when you only went shopping because you were bored. Yes, I tend to use shopping as a form of entertainment.
Am I the only one who loves shopping quite this much?? And has anyone read this book?

Thanks for mentioning my book on your blog! I think you may still be able to get used copies on Amazon.com and abebooks.com, although the book itself is out of print.
Cheers,
Laura
