I've been buying stuff online at least twice a week. It seems to be things I need: clothes (I'm sick of wearing hoodies at home, so I'm buying inexpensive tops from Walmart and other places on sale), bathroom cleaning stuff (Scrubbing Bubbles, extendable scrubbing brush), things for the home (plastic tablecloth protector) ...
Is this normal or have I succumbed to impulse buying? It is starting to bother me, but I can't seem to stop. What should I do?

If so, then if what you are buying online is in line with your budget, whether you go to the store or buy online is not significant. With the price of gas, buying online might save you money. Certainly, it is easier to compare costs at Walmart, Target, Amazon to find the cheapest price from your couch rather than going store to store.
If you don’t have a budget, then you should set aside the time to make one, and the time each week or month to track expenses and make adjustments.

The clothes you could get carried away with if you aren't careful. Make sure your clothes are interchangeable so that you can put several outfits together from a limited wardrobe. Either by using complimentary colors, for example turquoise and hot pink, or matching, say you have turquoise shorts and a top that has splashes of turquoise in it, but that top also has splashes of green in it that could be worn with green shorts, but that top also has splashes of hot pink which can be worn with hot pink shorts, which also goes well with the turquoise pair of shorts. Then mix in a hot pink tank top. This is just an example from the summer wardrobe I just bought, plus I have denim shorts for the purple tank top that has splashes of pink which could also go with the pink shorts. The purple tank happens to compliment the green shorts well, too. So I have several outfits I can wear from 4 shirts, 3 shorts, and the denim shorts I already owned. I also own a tank top that only goes with the denim shorts, so that one is limited, at least until in the future I find other clothes that will go with it.

I don't buy a lot of stuff online because it is way to easy, especially when some of the sites tempt you with...spend a little more and get...
