I’ve been on an internet shopping spree
There’s something lost in the pit of me
Buy one of these and get another free!
I trade desolation for purchased glee
Click, click, click where it says buy
All else is useless, why even try?
What is this bargain I do espy?
Just want to laugh and no longer cry
I’ve been on an internet shopping binge
Deep within I’m really quite unhinged
With such prices how could I whinge?
I don’t feel my pain now, not one twinge
Click, click, click is a merry sound
If all your life is running aground
Here in the market are pleasures found
At least until your bills come around

I’m not sure if I’m laughing or crying about this one. I just imagine a Barbie-esque woman at the computer, dressed up nice, eyes wide, screwed on smile, buy buy buy and it’s fine fine fine!
LOLOL, yep, that’s a pretty good description of me…except I don’t look quite like Barbie, LOLOLOL!! 🙂 🙂
Aw. You also write poems. So that’s good 😉
LOL!!! 🙂
Don’t you miss the ‘Cut & Thrust and smell of blood’ you get when going to the Sales for real Helen? LOL 😀
No, not at all…I avoid normal shopping like the plague…so I probably don’t buy more than others do really, it just seems that way to people I work with when internet shopping parcels keep arriving at work, LOLOL!! 🙂 🙂
Haha! I dare to go there and often don’t realize how quickly things are adding up.
Yes, that is the problem with it all!! I just make sure I clear my credit card every fortnight on pay day and that way I know I don’t go over my actual disposable income! 🙂 🙂
Really enjoyed this Helen and I am with you – shopping on the internet is the way to go. I avoid shopping at all costs if I possibly can! 🙂
Thank you!! 🙂 🙂
Totally an internet shopping. I hate “real” shopping….p.j.’s, coffee, and a debit card. Yup! 🙂
Hugs, Sis!!
Yep, thanks!! 🙂 🙂
A lot of fun, reinforced by a playful pace, imho. 🙂
Thanks!! 🙂 🙂
I let Sam do the internet shopping just encase lol I love the playful pace as well
Thanks so much!! 🙂 🙂
The malady that keeps us enslaved. You express it so well in your poem.
Thank you!! It’s one part malady and one part fun!! 🙂 🙂
Oh I love this Helen!~ Describes me to a tee. I love my online shopping sprees! Easier on the knees and I can shop with a hot cup of coffee, garbed in my pj’s if I choose. ahhhh life is good—until the bills come lol
LOL, exactly!! Thanks!! 🙂 🙂
