Shopping for my babies makes me happy - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hi my name is Sarah and I'm a shopping addict

No seriously I think I have a problem. I love shopping online or in stores for my furbabies anyway but when I'm feeling down shopping for them makes me feel better. I read somewhere that that really is a problem, but hey atleast I don't resort to drugs or alcohol or any thing bad like that. Shopping is pretty safe except that is leaves you with no money LOL Does anyone else seriously have this problem? Or just a little? lol

Me too! I used to get that rush when I shopped for myself...not anymore! I love shopping for Wobie more than anything!

I have this problem already, and I haven't even gotten my baby yet! I am getting my new baby next Saturday and I have already spent a lot.

I know I am going to be in serious trouble when I do get her. I already have my eye on a new Coach bag

. Maybe we need to set up some kind of Shoppers Anonymous here on YT to help each other from going broke!

Hi, my name is Joy and I am a yorkie shopaholic. I've been to Pet Smart 3 times this week and am expecting at least 4 orders in the mail, one big one from Pet Edge. It's seriously the only thing that's keeping me sane while waiting for Kingston to come home.

I did the same thing! Wobie was spoiled before he was born!

I'm getting a new Coach carrier as well...I don't know if a Shoppers Anonymous would help...we'd all just talk about what we bought, and then the others would want to buy it too!

It really does help pass the time while you're waiting!

Me 2! I spent sooo much money on Teddy when I first got him, shopping for him and such. Then I was like Okay when I get my next one I won't make the mistake of spending too much getting stuff. Well I did make that mistake again! lol I spent a lot on her too

OMG! I have been to 3 different pet stores this week as well! It is the only way I can compensate for having to wait one more week for my baby. I can't stop from driving over to see what this store might have that the other didn't.

My hubby just rolls his eyes when I say we have to go to the store to get this one item, because he knows we will walk out of there with 10 things!

I usually go crazy about buying things for Buttercup. When I was in Burberry shopping for another handbag, there was this cute shirt, carrier and shoes and I just had to get it along with a matching harness, collar and leash. I feel really good about myself when I buy things for others (ex: husband, son, family, Buttercup) and not for myself.

I say, if it makes you better, go for it!

Kbsqueff · 07-07-2007, 11:44 AM

I admit... I might be, a little, addicted to shopping for my girls...

Everytime I go out I bring home a little something for them...

But you should see their cute faces when I get home... they KNOW Mommy can't resist them...

Yes it definitely does! The days definitely go by faster shopping. It's still hard to wait though. I still have a little over 2 more weeks to wait.

Yorkiedaze · 07-07-2007, 12:12 PM

I have TWO addictions!! I'm addicted to both Zada and Azrael and shopping for them. I don't think there is one room in this big house that doesn't have something of theirs in it. I have three closets full of their things, a garage full of things for them and just bought them a tent and hair barrettes. I love ordering on line and get more excited about buying for them than I do myself. I think I do have a problem................it's called my second kids!

Or is it just my kids!
