Just think, how many times have you gone to the store for 1 thing and come out with 20. I do it all the time. If I could just stay focused on what Im putting in my shopping cart, I might have more money in my bank account.

#38. MONITOR MY SPENDING
This is going to be easier said than done. Monitoring my spending would require me to actually have a budget and put myself on a weekly allowance. My plans are to go shopping with a list AND COUPONS. Keep all my receipts and go over them on a weekly basis. Maybe I will spend my lunch period canvassing receipts.....

{Stepping up to the microphone} {me} Hi, My name is trookie and I am a shopoholic.
{group} welcome trookie!
{me} I have been clean and sober for 10 years with the occasional slip up of buying shoes :-)
You have to definitely be conscious on this one. Think about every purchase you make and ask urself out loud...(yes in the store) "Do we really need this now?" I do it all the time. Yes you may look crazy to others but your pockets will be a lot healthier
