Are you a shop-aholic? How to shop like one - but still save!

Are you a shop-aholic?  I am an internal Shop-aholic... But I think I have done very well at keeping it under control.  I Love to feel like I am a spoiled Princes.... I just hate Spending money.  That is why I search for Voucher codes on the net.


Searching for voucher codes can Definatly Help you save money.  Currently I am on the search for items to take to blogher.  I am on the lookout for Luggage...and a new purse...and a computer bag...and a few new outfits!  I am having a hard time trying to figure out what to wear.  I have never been to a conference this big.  So I am open to all suggestions.

Everyone says that I need to dress like me.  Well, me..  I'm always in a work uniform (I work 7 days a week) - so I can not dress like me.   And everything that I had in my closet is about 2 sizes too big.  If I am not in a work uniform, I can be found in T-Shirt and Jeans... But I feel that a conference this big needs something a little more.  Like a nice pair of slacks or a really cute top.  I did find a sundress that will look cute for some of the parties that I am hoping to go to.  But I still need some more items. So off to the internet I need to go for coupons or gift codes.  I am wanting to shop like money means nothing - but pay as little as possible.

What is your favorite site to find great deals on clothing?

Credit card debt

Post contributed by Hilton Miranda
My mom loves to shop. She grew up with her daddy’s credit card, being able to use it whenever she wanted and her dad would pay it off at the end of each month. She grew accustomed to shopping wherever she wanted to and rarely looking at price tags. When she married my dad, they could not afford for her to continue shopping the way that she had when she was growing up. She was fine with this when she was raising us, but once we were out of the house, she started back with her old habits of shopping whenever she wanted to. She got several credit cards and hit the limit on all of them. She decided that she needed to cut costs elsewhere in order to start trying to pay off the credit cards. She found out that their city of Vaughan has Oncor Energy available at a fixed rate, so at least their power bill will be predictable and lower than it normally is. I hope she finds some other ways to save money or at least can cut down on the amount of shopping that she does.
