I was just having these thoughts this week and couldn’t put into words my addiction to buying. Most recently I was waiting to get my car serviced and was car shopping the lot, when I decided I didn’t need a new car at that price I felt the urge to buy that dress I had my eye on because I had just “saved” so much money - why am I sick like this?
Thank you for this and thank you for the perspective on doing our parts.
I do the exact same thing. It's funny how our brain justifies purchases by hypothetical money "saved". I think it's more of a habit—a breakable one!—than anything.

It's never been a better time to shop vintage ;)
Any vintage shop recommendations you can think of?
