I love shopping online. But there is one downside in it for me. I just seem to get carried away every time. Like just now I got online with a music and film site that I like to buy a CD. I checked a few places for the best price - this was the best. Then I saw they had specials on several other cds from the same artist so I just bought four more. That made me shop for so much that I got a pecial offer on two films as well. As I saved about 20 dollars I went for it. Do you do that? Do you go online or to a store to get one thing and end up with a lot more?

Hi, teison2. You must be doing well to eventually splurge on shopping online. Unlike you, I don't have much resources to go on shopping either online or direct to the store most of the time. I only get to buy the things I really need for the house, the kids and school (of my daughter). But of course, whenever I'll do well in the future, I think I'll prefer online shopping. It's more convenient! Hope being your friend! :)

Thank you for the response my friend:-) Yes I am fairly well of at the moment, so I can shop for things I do not need. And sometimes it get to be more than I originally thought, even though I think that one should not just buy and buy new things. I hope your economy will improve soon.

I have a friend who once bought two CDs as a set instead of one, just because when bought together, they had a $1 discount!

sometimes it's easy to loose sight of the fact that one is really not saving much just buying more.
