Exactly What is a Shopaholic?

According to dictionary.com a shopaholic is defined as a person who shops compulsively or very frequently. Are you one of those girls who feels an urge to shop for no apparent reason, other then the fact you just love to shop? Well, I know I'm definitely one of those people.

Just the other day I went to the second day opening of the new H&M store at Coquitlam Centre. I wasn't extremely excited about going because of all the people and everything. But, when we got to the parking lot, an extremely overwhelming anxiousness came over me. I couldn't wait to be in the store so I started walking faster. I knew I had felt this feeling before, so I thought of what caused it. I came to the conclusion the feeling I experienced is a shopping high and damn does it ever feel good!

So, could it possible be that millions of women are addicted to shopping and we could possible be shopaholics? I wonder if my local community centre offers shopaholics anonymous? I know some girls who will go shopping after they brake up with their boyfriends just to cure the emotional pain. I have began to think maybe shopping is healthy for us or I am just brainwashed. Whatever shopping does for you, I know it will make me feel better any day of the week, especially if I get a great deal on something I absolutely love!

H&M Opens at Coquitlam Centre Today

It has been called the Ikea of fashion and BC is getting its first H&M store at Coquitlam Centre. H&M opens today (Thursday) at 12 noon with a ribbon ceremony, 20 percent discount for the first 150 customers and a stylish gift with every purchase!

Hennes & Mauritzis (operating as H&M) is a swedish fashion clothing retailer for men and women, offering everything from the basics to the latest international trends, and all at relatively reasonable prices. H&M is known for offering exclusive collections by fashion designers Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney and Viktor & Rolf.

Along with wardrobe staples like leather jackets and handbags that won't soon fall out of fashion, H&M is known for churning out inexpensive versions of designer trends soon after they've made their runway or red-carpet debuts.

H&M tells the Vancouver Province it went to Coquitlam first because there was space available there. It plans to open a flagship store at Pacific Centre in downtown Vancouver soon.

H&M has over 1300 stores in 29 different countries and has more then 60,000 employees, so if your looking for a good employer, may I suggest applying at H&M.
While having a new H&M store here sounds pretty convenient, I think it could be dangerous to my pocketbook!
