Cathy: I bought my friend a purse online. I got nervous that it wouldn't be shipped on time, so I re-bought it in a store. Then I found the same purse in a different store for 30% off, so I re-bought it there. Then I found the same purse in a different store for 40% off, so I re-bought it in that store. Then the purse I ordered online arrived along with a catalog offering a slightly better purse for 45% off plus a $12.95-value gift with purchase. With eleven days to go until Christmas, I am about to buy gift number one for the fifth time. The shopping's barely started, but the shopper's completely spent. Charlene on phone: Ring! Hi! It's Charlene! I got the cutest purse today!! Holiday returns. Holiday re-buys.
