It turns out that for the most part, we all like shopping – even when we are buying things we don’t actually need. When we are feeling depressed going to the mall on a spending spree can give you a feeling of relief.

So how do you handle the urge to go shopping? How do you stop overspending? In this video, I give you 5 tips for how to stop spending so much money.
