It's a bad addiction to have. People with this addiction buy things they don't even want. It's the buying process which is the buzz. Afterwards they are cross with themselves for buying the stuff. They are then upset when the stuff arrives. It not a nice addiction, but I fully get how you see the funny side. This addiction is mainly sorted out through CBT counselling. It is as hard to break as any other addiction.

It exists. Like the others, they're not good to have.
