Confessions of a Spendaholic

It started when I was younger.

A trip to Target on Sunday afternoons after church.
A look at the daily ad.
A leisurely stroll around the main aisle.

And I was hooked.

Target was my new fascination. I loved everything they made. I wanted to buy everything they distributed. I felt at home with the quiet and chic atmosphere.

I can truly say that I'm a bonafied Target addict.

As much joy as this obsession has brought, it has also caused financial woes.

Debt.

Alot of it.

No, not all of my debt can be blamed by Target's flawless shopping experiences. But it has definitely contributed to what now stands as a substantial amount of money owed.

This blog is about learning to balance my love of all things Target and ever growing contribution to my credit card bills.

As of today, I'm going to make a change. I'm going to confront my shopaholic ways instead of avoiding them.

I'm going to look my debt right in the eye...and then probably cry. But I'm going to tackle it, head-on. I want to be debt-free. I want to be a recovered shopaholic. I want to go to Target and not spend $100.

Bring it on, debt...cuz you're gonna lose.
