Spending Habits

Alright I have the worst spending habits in the world. I get it from my dad – cash burns a hole in my pocket and having a credit card makes me do the whole “ill pay it back later” thing. I have a decent bank account especially for a college kid but I got a “retirement” check from my job and my parents are helping me with some rent since I move into my new apartment in a week. So I am kinda spending alot right now with the random stuff everyone needs but Im going a little nuts. Its obviously been years since my parents brought me clothes shopping so I decided I needed some respectable clothes. Literally I just spend $300 in the last 20 min shopping online for random stuff (no not just clothes I am straight).

I spend money on everything. From video games to a huge framed Elvis painting (no reason at all for buying……Elvis is just bad ass). I literally hate shopping in any store if its not for groceries. However online random shopping takes a turn from “Man I could really use a new controller” and goes quickly to “WHO DOESNT NEED A ROBOTIC JACK DANIEL SERVER???” (ok in all fairness who doesnt; I didnt buy it but I REALLY wanted to).

I honestly think Im addicted. I can go a long time without spending money I really can. But then I have a night like tonight where I just go nuts. It sounds kinda gay but I do the guy shopping thing online. New sunglasses, a new watch, other random things like that.

Anyone know a more progressive way to handle this?

Ok after reading that back to myself it makes it sound like I am a compulsive spender and major debt and thats not the case at all so……take that as you will.
