Shopping Addict Accidentally Bought 1000 Shoes | Obsessive Shoppers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 ноя 2018
- Single-mother Ebony loves a good bargain - but to a degree that can be called obsessive. She has no count of the numbers of wigs she owns and estimates her collection of shoes to about 1000 pairs. All buys she believes were accidental.
Shopping is something most people do - but for some, it can become an obsessive-compulsive habit making it hard to live a normal life. Jasmine Harman meets people suffering from shopping addiction while investigating the personal and very emotional reasons for developing this money-consuming habit.

What she needs to do is turn it into a business and flip it. Buy low sell high that way she still gets the satisfaction of buying but still get her money back
Yes that's what I was thinking.
assuming one would actually buy that crap
Mayra R some people like to keep it, its not only about buying
@@myheartttt873 that's called hoarding and they can still buy but as long as they sell something too
Mayra R yeah but hoarders dont like to throw things away, which means that they dont buy to sell!
I remember watching the full episode of this and there was a part where it shows that all her babies stuff is still in her shed (her baby died) and that is why she hoards and buys things, so please don't be hard on her.
Now I fully understand 😔😔😔
Zoe Cook
Oh ok , I was wondering about her ever being traumatized ? 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
😢
Zoe Cook bless you for asking people to go easy on her :)
Where did you watch the whole video
She seems like a really good person, a beautiful girl -- she is protecting herself with stuff, making an emotional wall out of bargains.
This makes the most sense.....
I myself is the same
The book "30 Days to Stop Being a Shopaholic" by Harper Daniels is helpful.
I'm not a psychologist or anything but I think that she is using shopping to fill her void of loneliness what she may really need is companionship and attention and not stuff. I pray that she gets counselling to deal with her issues.
When a person is alone they do this kind of stuff to make them stress free
You're right. She's lonely and wants companionship.
Hoarder people does it too
She actually says that at 2:40. It's sad.
Yeah obviously. She said it in the video.
I like her wigs. She wears them well.
1000pairs, and all tasteless
Yea literally all ugly shoes
You got that right !! 😂😂🤭🤭
Right? Jeez, so sad
Ryte shoes look like they need to go in the garbage goodwill probably wouldnt take them cheap looking shoes smh lol
@THEwhimsical1 😂😂😂
At least her stuff is neatly put up.
For now..... soon everything will look just like her living room
If you cant be neutral and professional as an interviewer then dont be in journalism. Totally rude comments in front of the lady. Not professional in asking questions subtly in a way that dont seem offensive.
She may be a shopohlic but thats none of anyone business but hers
True! If you're gonna be rude, don't go into somebody's house and spew all that negativity. Get out then lol
I was thinking the same! Completely rude and judgmental journalist! She asks her questions and then makes weird faces at the answers.
Agreed
Typical. Its rude to mock a women but brits will mock men to sucide then promote feminist extrenism.
facts trumpfeelings are u gonna be doing this the whole comment section? It’s bitter and tragic to read. Just came off the pro life comment u left about her baby dying. And now u’ve somehow made a rude journalist to a woman with trauma about feminist extremism? R u ok?
She laughs because she is uncomfortable with her stuff,. She is not happy. Stuff means nothing to her. Very Sad.
I am surprised nobody commented, but she passed away a few years ago.
OMG! How sad. How?
This was good I want the whole episode
Painting, Writing, Gardening are hobbies. Shopping is an addiction, like gambling, drugs, alcohol.
LMAO.
Not unless if you have more money than you can spend
"Their Mom doesn't spend a lot of money."
Later...
Mom: "I've got 6,000 pounds of debt."
amber scholl is shook
So is only seen wrong when a average person does it? Don't the rich do it as well? Hmmm, Yeaaah, is not like rich people don't collect cars, shoes, and clothes... Oh wait they keep it in a different mansion organized by the help, and they also get their own show; and everyone applaus them...silly me.
Difference is, for the rich it’s literally pennies compared to a regular salary. When you make $10m a year, $500 for a pair of shoes is the same as $5 for a $100k salary person. $2 for an average salary person. I…admit to getting two pairs/items of clothing when the price is under $10 and it’s a brand or style I know I’ll use. I’ve literally bought 5 sweatshirts because they were that price and I already use that brand. Also, free shipping and discount minimums applied. Yeah….
She's so sweet and bubbly I can't be mad at her I just feel a little sad for her. Lovely woman just needs a little help and love. She can overcome this and she will.
I really like ebony lol. She’s adorable. I feel bad for her. But she’s very charming . I wish I had a friend as bubbly as her.
Love is what is me too she'd be fun too shop with lol
She is obviously under a crippling amount of stress and is coping by using a false bubbly personality
Obviously...right..duh
She passed away last year :/
She needs to make a Poshmark or whatever you have in the UK for resale apps.
If her stuff is brand new people may even buy it at almost full price.
We have an app called Vinted. It works pretty well.
Just a typical hoarder, in my opinion - very sad, especially all the laughter which is obviously denial. This is a disease that rarely gets better, and pushes people away (literally, with walls of unneeded junk). She is lying to herself about everything.
My sister is a woman and she buy cars.How we don't know
That's just plain ridiculous. Some folks just don't know what to do with their money. So sad. You can't eat shoes when you're starvin.
She's embarrassed that's why she's keeps laughing, this is a very sad situation... I feel sorry for her boys .. Those boys will find her buried under her stuff one day …God help her in the January sale...
Genesis 9: 14-16 " Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
Does she where wigs
How does this relate to having too many wigs? Is God into wigs?
Okay.
It's off topic and I am not sure what it has to do with someone who loves shopping, not shoplifting, but it's a nice biblical quote.
Thanks for reminding us
@@ferociousgumby 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know a few shopping addicts. All women, always trying to replace the emotional void of either divorce or emotional unavailable partners. Usually narcissistic.
It's such a scary feeling. I have thought about that before, being scared of never getting to do the things you have planned or dreamed to do when your younger. This is it actually happening at such an extreme level
I can relate....Shoes are like diamonds and they are definitely a girls *best friend* 👠👠👠
With all the money she’s spent she could have a nicer home
No way 1000 shoes are ''accidentally'' bought. This poor woman needs therapy!!
Can't wait for part 2
There's nothing wrong for a person to own thousand of different items regardless it's branded or not just as long as the money comes from inside their pocket.
What's wrong is if a person bought it at the expense of other people or they stole it.
Ebony And Shopping Lived together In Perfect Harmony
I am annoyed by how many shoes & boots I own: snow boots, barn boots, old paddock boots, “town” boots, my old combat boots; two pair of sneakers; water shoes; sandals; one pair of dress slingbacks and two pair of dancing shoes. Twelve pairs total, but after all, I only have two feet!
Tina they serve different purposes
I have two pair of shoes, I use lol
She's sad and not figure out to fill the void.😮
Mental health is very real and very serious!!!
Jasmin doesn't like this woman.
My puppy is chunky yeah she’s kind of rude.
I think because she was laughing and the reporter said that it seems she doesn't take the topic of being a shopaholic serious. Guess she was nervous but i didn't like it either that she took the subject like nothing is wrong.
She seems lovely just hurting and tired and lonely. Pipe down.
@@mmorgado751
She was nervous. Wouldn't you be with people coming into your home exposing the things you keep under lock and key.
The reporter was an asshole.
This is exactly like the movie ~ Confession of a Shopaholic. She needs help this is really bad and sad its like she's crying out for help.
Shopping is awesome,there's nothing wrong with shopping and buying things with your hard earned money, but I do think buying things out of impulse and that are useless to you is a problem.
Her “FANTASY” self is completely out of control!!! That’s who is causing all of this chaos.💁🏽♀️
I like bargains and will often buy things I don’t really need but I go by the $1 cost per wear rule - will I wear it enough times to get the CPW down to $1? That’s helped me decrease my shopping volume. And made it easier for me to toss things that aren’t working - like a pair of work shoes that aren’t very comfortable and I’m considering tossing ($20, wore twice... do I toss them, or try to break them in more? Use them for short trips out only?)
She’s a Barbie girl...
She’s in her own world
Thinks she accidentally....
Bought 1000 shoes...
Edit: Wow. Much likes, Thank you folks.
More like 2,000 shoes, since there are 1,000 pairs.
True
True
i love how bubbly her personality is
It's awesome lol
I’m concerned for myself ... I see so many spending similarities with her habits ... I’m so motivated to purchase something because of the bargain 😞
She is just collecting, and she has such a specific interesting style I really never noticed or cared for. It's weird how they made it such a problem people are different and all have different ticks or habits
Where can we find full episodes?
This woman could go two full years without wearing the same pair of shoes twice
*three years
That is I cannot understand but I hate shopping. i don't have any winter shoes (I had 2 pairs but they broke last year). Every week I though: go by shoes. But then I thought maybe there will be no snow. And todays: its 20 cm of snow and I don't have any snow shoes. Tommorow I'm going shoping
salanee you need a friend to go with haha
Iwould love to but it is still nightmare
@@maggiee639 never go shopping with somebody that doesn't like shopping. It's not an enjoyable experience
What’s her sons @ lmaooo
we spiritual people called the behaviour as the spirit of poverty...
😂😂so true hey
Anybody else notice the “can’t pay we take it away” music kicked in and she’s in debt...
Well,if she's got the money, let her shop!
How is it ridiculous?
Well, she buys them on a credit card so clearly she doesn't have the money...
@@dgirllamius____x well, she apparently has credit, so obviously she pays it off and clearly her finances is none of your business.
She's $6,000 in debt.
You can’t just talk about her finances and then tell someone else it’s not their business lol tf
She said she was 6 grand in debt, so no she isn't paying it off. Probably paying the minimum on her cards and that's it.
If she had the money then why doesn't she buy these things outright? Oh, yeah...because she can't...
So relatable
I Love this woman!!!!
It may not look like but it Is a serious problem , imagine that one day she will have to sell or give away those things.... you can see clearly that's gonna be the biggest challenge in her life...and she will probably end up very very depressed or even worst. She definitely need a help. Very beautiful lady....shame that so many people today have so much mental problems and they dealing with it in a different way.
She needs to be smart and resale them for full price since she is so good at finding bargains.
Why aren't there healthy food addicts or exercise addicts?
Do you mean shows or just in general? Both of those exist and are real disorders.
Some People are addicted to that tho
There are. It’s called orthorexia. :/ I heart your Clementine avi
There are. But you never see documentaries on them because no one thinks it's unhealthy to be a health/exercise nut
honestly i have the curse of the giggles
I understand this lady. A cheap price always caught my eye.. But i forced myself over the yrs.. To limits... Like no power tools.. No paint if non white.. And for shoes.. I stopped at 200 pairs... No more room
The book "30 Days to Stop Being a Shopaholic" by Harper Daniels is helpful.
Title be like *'Woman did an oopsie and bought 1000 shoes'*
Well, I am immune to this temptation, because a size 4 shoe is almost impossible to buy. Of course, there are other temptations that I could succumb to. Such as buying bags and bags of chicken strips for my dogs.
I wonder if that's her real hair? It's gorgeous, especially in the maroon shade.
I’ll have a wig plz
When she said that shopping said come to me come to meeeee well I thought she was posesed
She seems really lovely.
Such cute shoes too
The book "30 Days to Stop Being a Shopaholic" by Harper Daniels was a good resource for me.
This journalist was horrible. She knows she's going into a unique situation, yet she's being judgemental instead of neutral. That's such a sloppy way of interviewing, especially with a situation like this.
i have a shopping addiction as well pray for me
I want to go home and throw away everything I own. That poor woman. All that hoarding.
ACCIDENTALLY.
same problem😔✋
Th whole time I thought: “I wonder how many cosplays I could do with all those clothes...”
*”ACCIDENTALLY”*
*accidentally bought 1000 shoes*
Well at least she’s organized
Title makes it like she bought 1000 of the same pairs
I also do a lot of online shopping
This is crazy
that stresses me the fuck out
“Accidentally”
I literally get money from people to buy things for them, purely because I find bargains lol I can relate but I don't spend what I don't have.
Where is the rest of the video? How come only 7:35 ?
I like her lol she seems sweet and cool 😂🤷🏽♀️✨
I’m shopping addicted but never buy that so many shoes 👠 because I dislike my house become a hoarder haha 😂
😩😩😩🤣🤣🤣 listen i cant even talk about her, while im no where close to this extreme, i do have moments like this. Get stuff home like what am i going to do with this now lmao... And eventually throw it out or give it away... Im much better now because all my money goes to bills now lol but i feel her to my core lmao
This is Mental Health she needs to deal with the real problem.
She's beautiful inside and out.
She's just hurting. We all are, at times. I'm sorry her character is in question when it was supposed to be about her disposition ( hoarded home, extreme shopping, cc debt) % how that correlates to her emotional well being.
Some people laugh, as to not cry. I think she was nervous and afraid. She's the backbone of her family. Just her.
Shame on the host for judging her before taking the time to understand her, furthermore, know her.
It makes the host look biased and ill equipped to interact with human beings on a level to present to anyone.
SPOIL YA SELF !!!!!!!!! you go girl !!!!!!!!!!
I like her!! But she must be careful because she already filled a whole room...she needs therapy.
Eagle lady 333 she passed last year, from what i’ve heard.
@@hm096 Oh no!! That's terrible...
I had a shpock advert before this 💀💀
What kinda crochet braids are those???🤔
*Accidentally*
*Beauty gurus are shook*
i like shopping but no money to shop😅 but dont want too many shoes
I wish that was my mom
She is beautiful
Why wouldn’t you at least spend money on hobbies, learning new skills, or dates? The former two are great for meeting new people.
Please tell me she’s works and is not on benefits!
True!!
Better start selling stuff online
Ebony seems sweet, I hope she got better. THe blonde woman is so pretty!
Car boot sale .. she must try it ... Once she sees money coming in she might like it .
How is her buying all this shit affecting anybody else is my question?? Her kids look well and takin care of so....🤷🏽♀️
