Good suggestion. Like you, I also put things I'm considering on my wish list and never go back to look at that list. I too sometimes leave stuff in my shopping cart for a few days and usually end up moving those items to "save for later" and never go back to that either. I will leave stuff in my shopping cart more often for a standard waiting period. Easy enough. Much of my previous comment was a little Amazon humor as most everyone I know feels the same way about Amazon convenience. Amazon is great for some hard to find necessities and saves a lot of time and gas when hunting for very specific items so I do appreciate it. Lastly, I've decided this year instead of ordering something for friends when I stumble across something that they may be looking for or need, I'll just send them a snapshot so they can check it out for themselves. Best to you.

perhaps try Debtor's Anoymous, there's online meetings. one story in the "currency of hope" book, storys, talks about how he HAD to stop shopping sales, his pressure relief group told him, yes he saved money, but overall it ended up spending more, cause of impulse stuff that he didn't need nor want, but that he was overall better off just paying full price for what he needed. my problem is ebay, as for ordering for friends, or sending them pics, maybe...but that sounds like just another part of the spending "buzz" thrill" rush and or feel good that rewards the online shopping, kinda like if I'm a coke addict and trying not to snort, but I see some good stuff hit town for a good price, and let my buddy know..."hey check this out!: LOL ;o)
