Ictations FOR Achillerato: B Burlington Books

A recent survey found that there are over 750,000 "shopaholics" in Britain alone, who are people who get into debt because they cannot stop buying things and often accumulate purchases by spending more money than their budgets allow. Typically a shopaholic is an under-25-year-old woman who spends about 15% of her income on fashion, and many shopaholics admit to being addicted to shopping and boasting to others about their purchases.
