This is so terrible, i find myself buying so much MAC - almost at least one thing a week!! how often do people buy mac- please tell me i'm not the only compulsive buyer out there. it's so crazy cos every time i walk into my MAC store (which isn't very hard seeing how i live down the road from it), i find myself coming out the store with a bag of something.... ARGH!! this is killing my wallet!!

Im with you...at least once a week. BF's dad is in the Hopsital in Los Angeles, so we are up there every weekend and I usually walk to the Pro Store just to get out. Hes been there for 2 months, so I have been at the Pro Store every weekend for the past 2 months pretty much! =\

You're definitely not the only one! For a while, I was going to the MAC store or counter and/ or ordering off the website a couple times a week. Now I go a little less frequently and I only order from the website when a new collection comes out but still... It's hard to refrain, that's for sure!

*Usually* I only buy when there's new stuff out, because it sort of gives me an excuse to go to the MAC counter (even if I don't buy the new stuff, but buy something existing), though if I am having a bad day, I will go, which is more often some months than others. Since school started, trips have become almost weekly, particularly when I walk into our office and my classmates say, "you're pretty stressed out today...maybe you should go downtown to the MAC counter."

I'm bad. I buy every time i walk past the counter--and I work at the mall so that's pretty often. There's just so much I NEED, and my credit card's right there! I should leave it at home...

I only go when a new collection comes out or when I've run out of something. But even if I don't NEED anything I go take a look and chat with my favorite artists. The sad thing is that they know me by name, whether it be in person or on the phone! Yikes!

I have been trying to only buy once a new collection is released but lately everytime I get paid if I am not going to the counter I am ordering online (I tend to order a lot online its a terrible addiction) So if I am not buying everyweek I am buying every 2 weeks.

I try to control myself so its usually once a month when I go shopping. But if I go more often or is around the area, my mind starts thinking about what I need to have. I'm sick. I spent at least $100 everytime.

I *try* to only buy once a month or so. My budget is pretty tight right now. I'm not always successful at the once a month thing, though. I was proud of myself though, the other day I had to buy my grandma some MAC brush cleaner, and I didn't buy myself anything. I think that was a definite first.

I've really been trying to cut back and go only when the new collections are released I don't have near the collection some have here, however I have lots of clinique and estee GWP. I need to go through my drawer and throw out the stuff I will never use. Their eyeshadows cant' compare to MAC and I never reach for them. Does anyone else have trouble getting rid of things?

A big purchase every other month or so. I think my biggest haul ever will be this upcoming holiday collection.

<sigh> Not as much as I would like. Most of the time I get really excited about a new collection and then I see it and I convince myself I don't really need it. I have already warned my husband about the Holiday items that I must have.

I usually ask my bf to get me something when i see or hear good things about a product from specktra. He lives right next to a MAC store. Its sooooo bad... I've spent WAY too much money on a lot of stuff i prolly dont really really need. Ive gone to the Pro store in sf about 3 times in the past month.

man... def. killing my wallet!
