I am a shopper. I love clothes. And shoes. And handbags. And jewelry.
And I'm a college student saving for a wedding.
Clearly those do not all work well together, so I have had to curb my impulses to be able to save money, at which I have been quite successful.
But I work in retail now and I'm always seeing these great clothes that I want and it's hard to go to the bank and deposit my check when I want to shop after having deprived myself!
I know FI would be upset if I spent a lot of money shopping, and I would be too, but it's hard to resist the urge sometimes.
So, question-how do you and your S/O handle shopping? Obviously, at some point I will need clothes and such and I'm curious how you ladies have set it up with your S/O-should I put aside a monthly amount of money that I can spend no questions asked? Or run my purchases by FI first? Or neither? I don't want shopping to be a source of tension. I think I am overthinking this. Hmmm...
