You love shopping and take quite pride in it as well. Any sale going on, you’re on it. A champ in getting the best deal at all times. But what happens when you open your closet after your last shopping extravaganza and look at the stuff and say, ‘I don’t really need that’. Yes, we understand the sad feeling and I guess every shopaholic goes through it. But people don’t get it that though shopping has its own high, it comes packed with a bag full of troubles. Here’re the common ones we all share.

Always low on cash

 

No money at all!

No money at all!

Come the “Salary Credited” SMS and major part of the salary of a shopaholic is spent on shopping during the first week of the month itself. Sometimes finances are so mismanaged that they even tend to borrow during the last week to meet their daily expenses.

 

Heavy credit card bill

What the....?

What the….?

When their cash gets over you shop swiping the credit card and then the obvious question, ‘where did I spend all that money?’

 

Have to shop alone

No one to accompany!

No one to accompany!

Not everyone around is a compulsive buyer and thus more often than not you have to go shopping alone.

 

Spend weekend to arrange new purchases

Goodbye weekends

Goodbye weekends!

On the days when one should relax and chill, you spend most of their time in arranging the closet and home in order to accommodate new purchases.

 

The guilt of wasting money

What I have done!

What have I done ! :(

That guilt feeling when you realize that you have wasted money and bought something that you do not actually need.

 

And the pain of missing the sale

Indeed, buying a product which was available at 40% discount just a day before hurts a lot.

 

That compulsory taunt of parents

Sudhar ja beta!

Sudhar ja beta!

When Mom says, “phir aa gaya paise uda kar”
