QUESTION: How much control do you have when you shop for clothing, shoes, home decor, and other possessions? Here’s how GON Readers responded… • 67% I'm mostly in control, but I will buy something on a whim now and then. • 24% Total control. I'm very choosy and only buy items I really need. • 6% Less control than I'd like. I often buy things I regret. • 2% Zero control. I'm a shop-a- holic. • 1% Other Other GON Reader Comments: • I usually talk myself out of most purchases. • I live in Central America. If I see it and like it, I have to buy it. It might not be there when I come back and the probability of it ever being available after that particular one is gone…slim. • I’m mostly in control, but my spouse is not. • I love shopping and clothes. So, I don’t have total control, but if I buy something, I do try to get rid of something so the volume doesn’t build. • I don’t have the money to waste, so I’m very careful. • I have control with most things…except purses. That’s one of my biggest problems. Back to Reader Web Poll Results Index
