Reasons Shopping Makes You Happy

“I know it wasn’t easy for you to take a full day away like this.
And now you’re planning a spa day. You’re a good friend.”
“She’d do the same for me. Plus, great dress, fabulous shoes,
and assorted other items I really had no need for.”
“It’s more fun when you don’t need them.”
“Too true.” Lil toyed with the new earrings she’d bought, and
