Compulsive shopping

1
Compulsive shoppers behave quite differently from normal people when they shop.
First, once shopping, they immediately become more excited and happier.
Second, normal people just buy what they need; however, compulsive shoppers buy everthing they may have some interest in. I f there is a discount, they may buy as many as they can pay for.
Third, common people begin to use the things when they bring them home. While, compulsive shoppers may just put them in closet and not even bother to open the packages. Then they begin to regret why buy so many useless things.

I know a housewoman who loves shopping on net, especially the discount things. However, most of these things are what she really doesn't need. As a housewoman, she may think her job is not only buying good things but also saving money. So when she finds the discount things, she losts her mind and shops crazily. But after every time shopping, she finds most of these stuff are useless. Then she begins to regret and swear not to buy so many things any more. While, once she learns some discount, a circle is coming.

There are many ways to encourage people shopping.
First, ads are full of the world. Newspapers, TV, bus station,..etc. Everywhere you can see the ads that are confused peoples' minds. Once leess of thinking, you may drop in the trap of shopping.

Second, internet provides us so much convenience that we can shop easily without going outside.
Look for what you need, input your credit card number and then press the button. The shopping is done. Because the online bank is open, many people are encouraged to buy things on net even though they really don't need them. Because it is just so simple and easy. Everyone can do it.

Third, in USA, if you want to buy some big things, you do not need to pay them at once. There is a buget plan for you to pay them little by litte. So you cannot evaluate your own money objectively and correctly. It is probably that some always buy some things that they cannot afford them.

In sum, the comsumed culture effect everyone's life.

4 Just as what I have said above, there is no place without ads. First, if you open TV, ads are jumping into your eyes. And it is not that ads go into TV show but TV show goes into ads. Second, bus station, window along the road, electrical screen are always filled with ads. No matter whereever you go, you can appreciate the ads for pastime.
Third, ads are also provided online. Searching, inputting and pressing are the three steps for shooping. It is so easy that you cannot reject it.
So ads have become an important part of our daily life.

5 A compulsive shopper is a person who can't control himself but addicts to shopping.

6 This issue just gives us one example of a woman compulsive shopper and analysis her situation. I think there should be more than one example to describe different compulsive shoppers with different psychology problems to make the novel much stronger.
