Britt, writing for No Sidebar, shares her past as a compulsive online shopper, detailing how checking sale sections first thing in the morning and buying items simply because they were on sale and in her size led to excessive purchases. She highlights yoga pants from Lululemon as a particular weakness, admitting to owning over 50 pairs.
“If there was something that was a good deal and in my size, I would probably end up buying it. Even if I didn't totally love it or need it. It was on sale. How could I resist?”
“Yoga pants were my kryptonite. Since we're getting into the nitty-gritty, back in the day, my number one go-to store was Lululemon.”
“I am not exaggerating when I say I would get a delivery almost every day of something new I'd purchased online. Thinking about it now makes me nauseous. That's how I ended up with probably over 50 pairs of yoga pants.”
