You might laugh, but I honestly believe that shopping can help to alleviate stress and make you happier overall. While spending money (aka going further into debt) is often the reason that I am stressed in the first place, it can help you forget about 'real world' worries and concerns-- if only for a few hours.
This thrill is only magnified when the things that you purchase are on sale! How can you resist something that you a.) like and think is cute and b.) is only a fraction of the original retail price!
With this being said-- I am not encouraging anyone to spend all of their time at the mall from now on... working in retail I am much much happier when the store is quiet!
