You love shopping. Try to limit yourself to a certain amount of time to shop per day. Before you go shopping, think of a certain reason to and make sure that’s all you do. If you can’t think of a reason, don’t go! Cut up those credit cards – reevaluate your closet and start saving!

Most B
Calm, cool and collected
You are a great shopper. You enjoy shopping but don’t over do it. Congratulations! You’re fairly responsible with your funds – but be careful when you shop for fall.

You avoid shopping at all costs. I wonder how you survive?! Have some fun and buy something for yourself! It’s great that you’re a saver, but don’t let that stop you from buying a nice treat.
