When is it easier for you to stick to a budget, when shopping alone or when shopping with a friend?
Have you ever asked your friend to monitor your spending? If yes, did it work?
Love is the battery of life....
Hi,I read an article that if one goes shopping with a friend on the average one spends 35% more compared to going alone..... The article was in Hebrew so I don't attach it. Don't have an answer to the 2nd part (and I don't need that "service"...... don't have such a problem). Best regards,
Always look your best because you never know who you're going to meet.
I find it easier to stick to a budget when I'm shopping on my own. I always find that my friends will unknowingly convince me that I have to have something when the reality is, I probably don't.
There have been a few occasions where I've gone with my one really close friend to my favorite store (Target) and have begged her to not let me spend more than the cash I have in my wallet and she's actually succeeded, despite my finding some really great stuff on a 75% off rack.
Shopping alone. If I am a with a friend I tend to want to spend money.
