Mas Shopping!

Bad shopping has been the news lately! First it was Citigroup’s $50m private jet, now it looks like the former NY state commissioner on health is in trouble for shopping. Alan Feaur raises the question to whether shopoholism is a disease akin to OCD. In Germany it is actually considered a subset psychiatric disorder of OCD, but not here in the United States of Shopping. I drive by Northpark everyday and I am continually amazed at how many cars are there. On the weekends if you want to catch a movie there, it’s nearly impossible to find a parking spot, and they added two more garages within the last few years! Shopping is practically a sport here in Dallas, and people come from all over Texas and Oklahoma, and even Latin America, just to go to our malls.
