A shopping spree is spending money with no limits. I have never been able to go on one myself but If I ever come into a lot of money I would love to go on a shopping spree.

A shopping spree is when you go out and buy a lot of items usually from various stores that are not necessary items you need. Typically when I do this (which isn't very often) I spend at least $300 in cash.

cool, 300 is a great amt to spend on things not needed. but i think it feels great too when we get things, i also here depressed people feel much better when they shop

Shopping spree is purchasing a lot of things in one day. I am very thrifty with money. I plan before purchasing. I inquire about the product and the price. I search for cash discounts.And then only i buy things.

Usually people who go on shopping sprees are using it as a form of therapy for their emotions. Is can be for sadness, depression but also for joy to celebrate something good that has happened in your life.

Usually when people say they went on a shopping spree, they mean that they had spent a lot of time shopping, hopping from one shopping mall to another, and spending like there is no limit. I sometimes go on shopping spree when I get my bonus, or made a windfall. I never put a limit on how much to spend, but usually I don't spend more than a few hundred dollars for a shopping trip. I usually pay for my purchases with credit cards, unless the store takes only cash.
